Comments

This movie is an improvement of 88 frames (1.47 seconds) over the previous movie. The improvements had been considered, but for some reason didn't properly work. After FieryBlizzard (FieryVolcano on YouTube) pointed out that he (sort of) managed them in the RTA version of the run, I tried going a bit slower and this magically worked.
The improvements come from not touching the first teleporter and not suiciding during the terminal activation.
Timed in RTA fashion ("Start Game" pressed to "Hello" appearing), this run is 0:39.33 (2075 frames) long.
For an explanation of the glitches used, please see the previous submission.

Thanks

I'd like to thank Masterjun for his help in creating the previous run, which this run is based on. I'd also like to thank FieryBlizzard for pointing me towards these optimizations.

feos: Accepting this improvement.
