Comments
- This run is a 1227 frames (20.42 seconds) improvement over the current published run by Randil.
- It mainly came from a shortcut in Scene 6 that saves over 15 seconds. Not only that, but there were a lot of optimizations since the start of the run, as well as better health management which is very critical.
- All tricks have been adopted from the current run, so make sure to check out Randil's submission for more info ("Tricks and strategies" section).
Useful addresses
Here are some useful addresses:
- Boss HP: Needed especially with the triple shots rocks so you make sure all three shots hit
- Y-Position: Useful when you're obscure during a shortcut
