honestly can't wait for the full game to be out although chapter 1 runs have been great lol

So in my attempts to decrease my Any% time i attempted to experiment with the clip where you use the trashbin and an unarmed goon (i've named him TireMan) to push you into the car garage and skip the fight. i've found out the following about this

-the only requirements for this clip are a corner and something that is small and you can stand ontop of it, such as the trashbin, a barrel, lamp, different lamp, or stool. im not sure about how it works yet because it seems that the goon must push on both you and the object at teh same time but it might be that he only needs to push one or the other

-you can use this clip Anywhere that has a corner and an unarmed guard. needs to be unarmed or else he will attack you from my experience however you can create an unarmed guard by knocking them out and having another one wake them up i have managed to do this clip in a few different places now

• Chapter 1
• Chapter 3 and
• Chapter 5

oh also if you wish to experiment with stuff you can turn on the console in options and press ~ just like portal

So i suspect that the way this clip works is when you are right between the layers of the water and air it counts your speed as running which allows you to build up speed and with that you can actually use it to save time later in the water by swimming close to the surface (just be careful to to clip back into the world) i have a clip of me doing both (messed up with the jump clip but later on it works well for the speed in the water) Apologies about the singing it was for a bit

The chair is definitely a better choice then the lamp, I swear the height of the lamp doomed me a few times due to it being too short.

oh i managed :D and found a new skip (that isnt too good but its funny)

I've been semi-running around aimlessly in my runs to find 5 pieces of evidence, the hand print, the button, Waltz chalk outline, the fridge poster, and one of the chalk outlines elsewhere in the manor. I'm Curious which pieces of evidence are required because I've noticed that the elevator wont start until after mike starts his "this horror show is making my skin crawl" dialogue

Tbh the satisfying sound of the Bat hitting the sniper makes up for any time lost lol, i watched like 5 seconds of TheKnightYoshi's Run to see how they got the piano button and just kept going my route (its the only part that i decided to just do on my own because of how much pain the wall glitch in Map 3 was)
