Implemented all the improvements. I think it's improved by about 110 frames in total, but after accounting for picking up another missile plus some other small luck-based things, it's 98 frames. It's about 6-7 frames faster to grab the missile from the second pirate if he drops it on the first frame, but I'd have to stall for 15 frames in order for him to drop one.
Here's a quick test I ran a few days back, hope it helps: Minor improvements in the beginning, that's all.

That's a really nice strategy for the first missile room, Hoandjzj. I didn't know the kagos were weak to missiles in this hack, I thought that they would be like in the original, where they take 10+ hits no matter what weapon you use. And I found an even better way through the room after that while redoing it :) All in all 100 frames where saved in those two rooms (more like 95 or something, I guess, due to having to refill one more misile).

Regarding the route question, i think because the game is new it's hard to say what could be better to do in this game. Does anybody know if there is any Map with the itens positions and showing the areas, what kind of blocks (breakable or not) there is in each room, and what kind of doors, and stuffs like that? That could be useful to plan a route.
(I don't know what it called!) you can detroy it with 2 Missiles, and it's really faster!!! Then you can refill your Missile by detroying the Space Pirate (in the next room after your double CWJ) :D:D:D

By the way, your amazing bomb jumping is awesome :D:D:DI voted no. Sorry, I found this hack to be pretty boring compared with your previous hack.
When are we going to get an encode? the one lex posted does not work?
Great run again, Hoandjzj! Congratulations! Well, it seems you want to go for another one... I think this game is too new, and maybe there's somethings to be found. Did Kriole give you any other ideas or is it just the higher speed stuff? If you see the run can be improved even more, maybe it would be better to wait for a couple of weeks and see if anybody else have some ideas. It could help if you post some wips and wait for some response while going through the run, so if any idea happens while you are speedrunning, you don't need to redo the entire run. While you wait, you could give another game a shot, maybe one that it's already known... anyway, that's up to you to choose. Btw, it's amazing how you can speedrun a game that fast. I wish i had this talent to speedrun, but i'm too lazy to even try.
