No zip run, better optimization, more precision and tricks.
This run uses version 1.1 of Stealth's Knuckles the Echidna in Sonic the Hedgehog hack. This is the version used in the previous movie as well, although it has been mislabeled as using v1.0.

The times given are the in-game timer values. The value after the final colon pair indicates the in-game frame counter, and is restricted to the 0-59 range. It is updated every frame (except during lag frames), and increments the in-game second when resetting to zero.

First half is by WST & marzojr, in second half is Shiro.
Labyrinth 3
The entire act is done by Shiro, no zip variant.
Star Light 1
In star light and in other games too, when going down the slope at such speed and when the slope is going to end, jump and that will increase the speed and velocity of the character. I went at such high speed in the first quater of the level that I made up the upper path.
Star Light 2
Time is the same, but I got fast after the loop. But then the rotating platforms came and that bugged me out.
Star Light 3
Nothing new, I got fast at the first loop, and did the loop glitch which saved me 10 to 8 frames. And the Boss at first was annoying but I found new strategy to beat it quick.
Scrap Brain 1
Same as the previous run.
Scrap Brain 2
Shiro did a much faster and did better optimization to beat the level faster than the previous one.
Scrap Brain 3
Same as the JXQ's run.
Final Zone
Using Aglar’s pause trick to exchange real-time for in-game time. Done by Shiro.
