Rygar time! I think this is my favourite game ever. I don´t know why really because it´s hard as hell. Guess it´s just fun to play ;)

Hmm. This run plays the same route as Bisqwit did, but slightly faster. I suppose it could be faster but it´s really hard to judge wether it´s better to kill 2 more robots wasting another 10 seconds or just go straight to Ligar (hardest boss EVER I tell ya!) and fight him for 10 more seconds. Ah well. It´s 9 seconds faster and that´s the best I could do right now after trying several tactics all over the game.

I did some things different then Bisqwit.

  • I take the power upgrade while fighting the robots. This is not for the power but for the range. This allowed me to stand farther from the robots while delivering the final blow and thus made them spawn faster.
  • I take shortcut in the area before the forest.
  • I performed the glitch in the forest with the bosses second shots. I find it impossible to perform this with his first pair of shots.
  • I take damage to boost myself forward and only forward to save time.

That´s it I think..

Oh, and also, this game has so many great glitches! Some of them I couldn´t perform because they wasted time but it´s a great game anyways ;)

Aims for fastest time
Takes damage to save time
Abuses programming errors in the game
Using a warp glitch

Enjoy

Edit: Will improve it further. This is because of a new thing that I found.


Bisqwit: Processing in the near future.
