Routed this thing back in the day but never did a run because I discovered Spirit Form Glitch and went back to any% instead. I get all songs/treasures/recipes/pets/verse eggs/memories/third cooking slot. If someone thinks you should get more or less stuff let me know.

I don't really care whether this has a leaderboard or not if no one else ends up running this but I figured that I should post it here

Was inspired to mess around in Aquaria again and found a glitch that I'd gotten a few times before by accident but never knew how to do on purpose. You can start a new game with higher max health than you should by loading a save file, doing a pause exit exit and then starting your new game. I don't think that it should be allowed for any% runs but idk I'd like some more input on this.

(Should have made this thread months ago :V)

Mibibli's Quest is a fairly straightforward speedgame and you can probably just learn it by trying to mimicing the record, but if you have any questions you can post them here. If you've found some new stuff you can post it here as well.

So a day before the steam version came around I asked Ubersaw what we should do with the old times, since the new version would add some stuff which would make it impossible to compare old times to new ones. To keep the history intact we decided to make a leaderboard for the old version as well.

However, since the final boss doesn't quite work the way we probably all thought, having two leaderboards seems somewhat unnecessary. The only changes to any% I've noticed are a room in Rave (3rd after the checkpoint) and the fact that you can't change weapons during screen transitions.

Has anyone noticed anything else? The changes I've noticed barely affect any of the runs of the leaderboards (no run fully takes advantages of the fast strat in Rave and the weapon switching can be worked around just fine). If nobody notices anything else then I think that it's just fine to have only one leaderboard

Should we switch the leaderboards to real time? I've been wondering for quite some why the leaderboards are in in-game time, since real time makes more sense to me. The difference between real time and in-game time is caused by the slowdown effect when you collect a full health potion for example. So to me, it would make more sense to prioritse real time since it rewards taking a risk and skipping the potion.

I would change it myself, but I didn't want to go full tyrant mode by changing it without asking around first :V

Hi

So I know that I'm really the only one that's actively running the game, but I wanted to ask around about this anyway. I recently found out that you don't have to collect the blueberry pie in order to get the progress bar completely full at the file select screen. So I was wondering if we could just define 100% as getting the full progress bar? That would cut out a couple of minutes of watching cutscenes early in the run and would make the category a lot more bearable.
