previous sum of best (3:44.579) vs the WR i just got XD

That's insanely impressive!! You've undeniably mastered the game. I'll update the WR :)

(+1)

thanks, my goal is a sub 3:40 which is two seconds faster then my current sum of best

I look forward to hearing any future updates! :)

WR this time i recorded it

I know you've since (somehow) completed it even faster, but this was still super cool to watch! My favourite parts were how flawless training 1 was, and how clean the end skip was in zone 3.

I know Dusty (the wr holder) from a different game and this game came up in conversation, well I got him back into it and I want the wr.

This is a compilation of our runs and segmented runs at the moment. sub 4 min is possible :)

Nice game! Put about 25 mins in, I got this run :)

Thank you! That's an amazing run! By far the fastest I've seen

I think this was no-death. Notable Zones 2 and 3 and Chase are the fastest I ever ran

(+1)

I did some math on my best splits, and with a faster Z1 and a MUCH faster Z2, My sum of best is 4:09.619. So, at least sub 4:20 should be doable. More attempts throughout the week.

Sum of best: 4:03.310. I want a sub 1 Zone 1 so bad, because then all sections would be.
