A new glitch has been discovered by Consume_Pie, which allows the player to control the game and its main menu at the same time. In his words:

• clicking greenflag while at the start of ppath while in turbomode warps you to the world map
• this is because when the greenflag is clicked there is no collision for chirpy to stand on leaving to his death
• dying in ppath sends you to the world map
• since the greenflag is clicked the title starts to play
• waiting for the title to be on the "press space" costume wont set the menu sprite to go to front meaning, you can play the game with the title screen on.

You can use this to start a "new game" from anywhere, to load a save while in-game, to change settings while in-game, and most importantly to be able to dash in the intro. This can save half a second in the most important category of all, Car%.

It is banned in Any%, because the setup takes place outside of the run. A new category has been created, "Any% with Back in Time" (Any%/BiT), where the glitch is encouraged. You must record your entire Back in Time setup as part of submitting a run to this new category. Let's see how crazy the Speedrun Timer gets with it.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
