Consistent Strategy for PC / Android Version Phase 4 end

I found a more consistent strategy for the Phase 4 end on android / PC bluestacks emulator. Basically you let all the blocks fall then move to the end of the room with the falling blocks and go all the way to the top right. When you do this the blocks behind you will start to fall downwards and make room for the ball to get through. You can also glitch through the gap even if the entrance is blocked if there is a corner that you can get stuck into as the ball will overlap hitboxes with the block that is blocking the entrance to phase 5 and you will glitch right through it. This raises the chances of completion of this checkpoint and getting past it significantly. Now the PC run is a lot more viable due to this room being easier to clear. I am also working on getting a 1.0 version of the game to see if there is any difference in the game on the Phase 4 end so that it may be a better speedrun to compete for. I found a 1.1 version of the game but the end of Phase 4 still is the same as the 1.2 version so we may have to go back further. The goal is to get a version of the game that has the Phase 4 end like this video where the blocks fall slow enough for you to just press forward and not get stuck. I am attaching the 1.1 version of the game to the discord channel as well for you to choose which version you would like to play. Phase 4 might be even more consistent on the 1.1 version but I still have to test a bit more to confirm this. Also, to run this 1.1 version you have to setup a 32-bit Nougat instance of bluestacks as it is a 32 bit game not a 64 bit one and it won't run on the standard 64 bit bluestacks instance. The ultimate goal is to find a version of the game that has the same Phase 4 end as shown in this early video of the game when it was released at 6:36 in this video the blocks don't fall fast enough to block you from getting to Phase 5.

Play Phases On PC -> Available Now And With Instant Restart Binds And Key Remapping

I figured out a way to play Phases on PC. All you have to do is download Bluestacks and login to a google account (can be a burner) and download an APK of the game Phases version 1.2 by Ketchapp. Also make sure that if you download Bluestacks and the Phases APK to go to > Settings > Preferences and click the disable ads as it is free to disable them and makes the game a lot nicer to play. You can also go to full screen by pressing F11. I uploaded the APK File in discord so to download it directly please go there.

I also figured out how to make an instant restart bind and remap the arrow keys to a and d through autohotkey for the PC Version of the game. And I also made a reset bind as well and a bind to click the start screen so you can play the game entirely on keyboard with no mouse input. Just download autohotkey and download the ahk file in the announcements channel in the discord and drag it into your ahk folder.

With this, speedrunning the game on PC is completely viable but the times will likely be vastly different from the IOS version of the game due to many glitches/time saves not being able to be done on the PC version that are easily done on the IOS version. Also the ball moves right and left slightly faster on the PC version than the IOS version. Although there are some differences (not to mention the much harder to do consistently Phase 4 end) I think it will be a very fun speedrun to compete for due to the ability to play it on PC and the instant restart binds and key remapping. It seems to me that the PC version that is available is the same as the Android for all intents and purposes so the leaderboard for Android and PC are combined while the IOS Version is very different and is separate

Phases

I am posting this long format update here in case anyone wants to run the game still. Firstly I will say that the IOS version of the game is only possible to be run if a few specific conditions are met. To run the IOS version of Phases (the fastest version) one could have an old iphone / ipod / ipad
