Hey,
About the boomerang, I've been keeping it through out the route and change weapons with the energy ball slot.
At this moment, I have no estimate. I'll do a practice run up to Chapter 5 and post it when i do it.
And yea, it is great to see this game to start having a community.
Hello, I'm not sure if the Insane difficulty option will be possible like the way you describe it. If we were to add Insane difficulty, we would most likely just add it as a category.
For all categories you do not have to start from an empty file, you just need a completed file with all the weapons. It would be a hassle to start from a new file; If you were route the category with a specified weapon, it would be RNG if you got it from the vendor when you needed it.
You can see where the timer starts in LordHorlamin's or ShadowLinky's Any% NLS runs. Any% NLS and 100%'s timers start at the same place.
I'm sorry if there's some confusions in my answers or if i didn't answer question correctly.
Also, if you are going to run 100% where are you at? I'm on Chapter 5 and Pj (one of the people who has done co-op runs) has videos on youtube of 100% route up to chapter 4. You can find them here https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSuperSNES/search?query=Battleblock+theater . I'm hoping we could talk about the routes together. Thank you.
Ok, I have changed the names for the two categories and added Any% and Any% Co-Op. I also have added your Any% run to the leaderboards. Sorry for taking time to do so and getting back to you.
