About this game and movie

Interesting things

Lava cycle

The lava at the bottom section of the map runs at a global cycle that starts when you start the game. This means that I only started saving time over the RTA run after I grab the key in the lava area (we end up reaching the same cycle), meaning of half of the optimization of the run is useless, which kinda sucks, but it allows me to do some playaround, which is cool I guess.

Upwarp

This is the only glitch of this game I know. Essentially, by jumping to, what I believe to be, a pixel perfect position next to a ledge, the cube will warp to the highest vertical point at that X position. This may sound useful, but it's actually very situational, seeing as I can't use it to clip through anything. The only time where I use this glitch and it saves time is in the room that's an open area with the three spring blocks, which saved only 8 frames. Also, if you use this trick at the top of the map, you will warp to the bottom part from below. This may look cool, but it's useless.

Block clip

While groundpounding blocks in the lava area, I managed to slightly clip into a block. I'm not sure why it happened, I'm not sure if it's useful, but it's cool at least.

Comparison oddity

While I was comparing my TAS to AnaKitten's run, I noticed how she died earlier after obtaining the key in the lava section. I believe this is caused by the fact that she started the run way after the game finished loading, which caused differences in the lava's patterns. This is technically a time loss for me, but only in in-game time, which I wasn't aiming for.

Extras

Thanks

Thanks to CasualPokePlayer and Merl_ for helping me setup libTAS for PICO-8.
