Very nice WIP. Can't wait to see more of it.

Done with Aguni. Overall things are going pretty well. Health management between Bat Company and The Pinnacle worked out about as well as I could have hoped for.

As usual, it was a glorious WIP. I love how you simply ignored the spikes in the Clock Tower. You were much like the crazy nastyass honey badger that way.
Very nice! I'm left wondering if the Gergoth showboating cost frames though, since he's available to be dropkicked when you do that. Seconding the spike tunnels praise: silly game thinking you "need" bat form to get through there. Masochism and Save rooms will suffice.
According to the submission text, once Gergoth drops below 900HP, he can't be damaged again until his shackles finish coming off. So cpadolf starts the shackle-removal sequence, then uses the strongest single hit he can (pushing Gergoth below 900HP and thus into invincibility), and then the shackles finish coming off and the fight continues.
It does look odd, I'll grant.

Okay, I've got a rather mundane question, but I haven't been able to find the answer anywhere. And I suppose it might be vaguely interesting for speedrun purposes.
How much health do(es) Somacula('s forms) have?

It's 1100 and 5000 respectively. And the health is separated between the two forms, so you can't do any overkill damage on the first form to lower the health of the second form.
Hello!
I've started planning for a 100% run for this, just trying to edge out my fundamentals. First of all, I don't get the new movement pattern at all. Are you supposed to do it as fast as possible or what, cause that turned out to be slower than the old one.

How do you plan on getting the NG+ souls since NG+ does not reset the soul collection? 2 completions of the game?
The Hellfire soul doesn't actually count towards the 100% soul collection, dunno if I should bother with that =/.
Also, the movement pattern stuff solved itself... I was just doing it wrong, derp.

Maybe the run could start from SRAM in order to do it on Hard Mode, so that you get Hellfire at the end?

The problem with this game is that the collected souls and items are transfered from the first play through, no way to start a clean Hard Mode without hacking the save-file. Which is probably questionable if it is to be allowed for this game.

Isn't there a way to basically drop all of your souls, items, and money prior to starting the Hard Mode run? It wouldn't require hacking, just special preparation.
