That's a nutty time save! The only way to get the sub 40 was to find a new seed. I think you'll hold wr for quite a while, I don't hate myself enough to try to beat it.

Speedrunning this game made me hate it. Spending a minute for the game to load just for the game to freeze up or something was so annoying. I think I found some time saves so this run will definitely be beaten soon, but probably not by me.
