The 9/2/2022 patch added a console command to skip cutscenes. Here's a guide how to activate it: https://www.speedrun.com/hell_pie/guide/rsb0y

The leaderboard now has a "Cutscene Skip" variable. All existing runs up to now have been set to "No" by default. If you have an existing run that you are exceptionally proud of and would like it manually re-timed with cutscenes removed, either message me, or go to your run and re-submit it with a note saying you want it re-timed with cutscenes removed. (This takes a while to do, so do consider just completing a brand new run instead.)

Let me know if you have any questions.

Hello,

With the new patch out, I've elected to split 18 Ing by version. Although the optimal routes are the same on each version, the added difficulty of needing to do extra wallclips on the new patch, as well as No Major Glitches needing to use a glitch on the new patch, not to mention the slower autosave times, I've decided the version category split is necessary.

For right now, only 18 Ing is split by version number. However, if other categories need a version split, or could use a split for Any%/NMG, let me know and I'll add those categories as needed.

Hello,

You may now submit runs for Any%. Be sure to check the Resources tab to download the Load Remover to use in Livesplit. If you have any issues with the load remover, please report them to me.

I will begin verifying runs tomorrow (7/27).

(Holding off on 100% for right now since I'm personally not familiar with all the nuances of what's required/not required for 100% completion.)

Could a separate category be added for completing just Act 1? Time could end either when the last candle goes out, or when you pick up the New Game card.
