I am now working on a v2. I think I can save ~10 seconds over the currently published run. If anybody finds a new timesaver, please share it!

I have found 4 more improvements to this run. 1. This comes from taking damage from an enemy instead of the ground, which boosts you slightly less higher in the air, so you can move again quicker, and it saved 6 frames. Here is the .m64 & .st. 2. This is the same concept as the first one, except executed in a little different manner. This also saved 6 frames. Here is the .m64 & .st. 3. I changed the strategy of this room from grabbing the pole with the tongue and waiting to move in a bit then swinging, to jumping off the ledge and then grabbing it with the tongue and immediately swinging, because now you don't need to move in since there is less distance. This one saved...you guessed it, 6 frames. Here is the .m64 & .st. 4. This is the biggest one of all of them. I managed to do a way bigger spin and land on the platform that the pole is on, which saved 46 frames. Here is the .m64 & .st.

Really nice finds! I knew #3 was possible after submitting my run, but the other ones are new to me. The fourth one will need some luck manipulation, though.

Theres's a little clipping glitch involving the Z tounge trick: Walking away from a slope then holding Z with proper positioning the tounge will interact with the wall and the player will clip through the slope. The one right from the start works. It could also happen that the player slides down the slope and then clips through the floor. I haven't found any uses for it yet. Another trick: Speed of one axis can be locked while increasing the speed of the other axis while in mid-air, althought very minimal. The trick is to slightly adjust the analog stick angle. I also made a basic lua script: User movie #34924522240897332 Edit:Most if the first level can be skipped. The closed entrance point in the second section leads to the boss room. Either way it would be needed to clip throught the wall or do a very high Z-jump, the height of it depends on horizontal speed.

Managed to clip to the corner in the second room to the right while testing stuff, but then guy fell down and I wasn't recording. Both walls are exactly 90°. So skipping first world is somewhat more reachable, if the guy doesn't fall down after clipping. Other methods that would skip world 1: Save+quit, has the stone door open in the beginning but closes, unsucessful with walking under it; glitch out spitting out enemies, so speed modifier is set to 0.5 or higher, glitched mode needs to stop in order to use Z, or just walk trought the wall. Here're some notes about various things: https://pastebin.com/zmRTibA9 I did some shitty test of first room and was about 90f faster, didn't use any speed locking of course. Edit: A gif showing speed locking: http://imgur.com/PfMN6tg

Found this earlier while looking for RTA skips. I doubt people will get back into making a tas of this game but this is useful to leave. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSix7Cw17qE
