I had been working on a showmehowitsdonerun of this game starting with PharaohMan's stage, but I just realized that I may need to redo some of it because I didn't discover until very late in the level that I could stop a slide early by pressing Up. (I always thought you had to jump to break out of a slide.) So I could probably speed up a few of the mummies that way. Regardless, this might be a good time to start planning for the entire game. I know there are a lot of secret passages in this game, but I have trouble finding them; I'll often see the tail end of one of those alternate paths after it's too late to take it, or I'll just find a dead end with an extra life. And all the guides I've found mostly just discuss worthless boss strategies. So if anyone has any good ideas, feel free to post them.

I was trying a "Buster Only" run.. And something confused me. When i was in iceman level Beginning, i shot the guys head, killed him, and he dropped life. I jumped over the life just maiing it but, when i just about hit the gound, i went into the "I just got life, so ill freeze for a few frames" mode and i heard the "Gaining life now" sound. Yet the life never dissapeared. [EDited Add]So.. maybe it was just me.. but if this really happened, maybe you can try that to fill up more magnet beams. [/edit]
Hey, I think that happened to me in a speedrun once.

Hmm, your character seems to fall into time loops quite often...

Hm, yeah, BombAHead was working on this, but he stopped because he didn't have time to figure out all the glitches that Nach had heard of. They might add some extra planning to the run...

Yup. But I'm tired of reading the same things over and over again, so maybe I should try to stay out of this topic...

honestly flagitious, what looks better a 10:35 or a 10:36 as the movie-time? For me it's pretty clear that the first movie is the better choice.
I'd say it's not about what TIME looks better but what MOVIE looks better.

A longer game is more impressive because the author had to do more! It gives you more levels to watch! Okay I'll shut up now.

It didn't desynch for me, so good job on actually timeattacking the game.

Why are you so obsessed precisely with the term "timeattack"? Why precisely that and not something else? Is it simply because that's the term you heard first and you have always used it and now you refuse to change?
YES, I HATE CHANGING STOP MAKING ME CHANGE, YOU

Oh, you mean using Z-targeting to move backwards. For a while I thought you just meant backflipping.

Yeah, and you could be even more strict and say that it's only okay to stop the movie when it's no longer possible to speed up or slow down the end.
