  • Core: NymaShock
  • Input device: GunCom

Tricks

  • The faster the enemy disappear, the faster you advance to the next wave or room.
  • Shoot an enemy on the top of the head to make them disappear faster.
  • Shoot an enemy three times to make them disappear even faster.
  • Reload the gun magazine multiple times to manipulate RNG and get different enemy spawns.
  • In some rooms, shooting extra shoots speeds up the game by a frame each, only for real-time though.
  • While keeping in mind all of the above, find the optimal order in which shooting the enemies and reloading.

For the publisher

feos: Claiming for judging.
feos: Added cycle count to the movie (by resaving it at the end), this should fix the detected duration too.
feos: Great run, every room is faster than the record I could find, accepting.
Spikestuff: Flashing Lights proceed with caution.
Puts on sunglasses,
These aren't going to help during the Publication process.
