Discovered by yisk, facing the opposite direction before touching a portal causes Harry's hitbox to trigger the end of the level earlier. We don't exactly know why this is the case, but it saves a decent amount of time across the run. It seems to only be viable in levels where you approach the portal from the side. Below is a run with it done in multiple levels:

Data gathered on emulator about level scores, should be helpful for Max Rank runs: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xMUr_3AWy6EFFEzpbOt0qWhaLwiQgy71ueDsr-xhk9A

Flower's 12 Levels run clocking in at 3:41 has raised a lot of suspicion ever since it was submitted.

The run description stated: "not a splice on 'Ninja on the bridge', just a reset so as not to die of spikes".

This immediately caused suspicion towards it, due to the comment seeming very defensive, and there being no need to reset there. The run wasn't properly investigated until today, and sadly the footage seems to be spliced on the very spot the runner mentioned in their description.

The music is always the same in the game, no matter how many times you reset, die etc. The way the splice was caught was by comparing the music to the second place run, where it skipped slightly ahead at that point.

The run is removed from the boards, but if Flower can provide a full local recording of this, or other definitive proof that the run is legitimate, it will be added back. If Flower is unable to do so, the run will remain absent from the boards.

You can't just put % at the end of something that doesn't include an indication of an amount. Please fix this before I report you to the internet police of percentages.

This killed a WR pace run. Level 3 seems to lag out, I really don't know why.

This weird glitch happened to me. I wonder what causes this, and it makes me wonder if that's consistent and has use:

Could we have the timing start on -3, since the first 3 seconds don't effect the gameplay in anyway?

This is a good way to develop consistency for runs, and also makes the game have that "all missions" sorta feel, with a longer category. What do you think? ¤THE VIDEO NAME SHOULD BE 12 BALL CHALLENGE¤
