I've retimed this to 2:39. When I've double checked the start of the run and the end of the run it just barely makes it to 2:39.

Update on resetting the game: on W10 go to %appdata%\Local\VirtualStore\Windows Right click the YODESK.INI file and delete. Then reopen Yoda Stories

Sounds good! also how do we completely reset the game? I was taking a look around and it's locked me to the NG+ style of game. I would like to submit some runs of the longer categories but not sure how to reset the game to the start. I was looking through the files but didn't see anything. Do I need to completely delete the game and re download it?

Been thinking about learning this game as a speedrun. I played it as kid a little bit. Is there a possibility of a single game category? I'm not too great at long speedruns but a quicker category could help me learn the game.
