Improved Stage 1 and 2 by 47 frames, made a tas of 3a and 3b but 3b turned out to be faster by 18 seconds, so you'll have to get used to the rotated screen for that level! Believe me, I wanted 3a to be faster as much as you do, but 3a has slow and laggy swimming sections and a boss battle against three bosses that spawn one after another. Anyway, hope you enjoy!
