Hello friends,
I was wondering if it would make sense to be more detailed in our definition of "any% no credits warp".
I've been thinking about running this and something which isn't featured in the run is the elevator glitch used in the any% credits warp. Clearly the use of the glitch to beat the game is banned but the glitch used in the elevator works on all elevator screen transitions, not just the one after the first warp hole/hall.
I have not tested them all out but for instance the elevator that takes you to the first warp hall room, if the glitch is done on that transition, it takes you to the area just before the star crystal, so clearly it is not a glitch that always beats the game.
I was thinking about looking at a bunch of these and maybe routing them in. As I don't want to be disingenuous, I thought it might make sense to clarify the category that Dragondarch has submitted his run into. If however, there are no complaints then I'll just submit my possible future run in there. In the end, it may turn out that the glitch isn't that useful.
If you can find uses for the elevator glitch that don't involve calling the credits, go for it. I didn't even know there were other uses for it.
Thanks friend. I haven't touched this game in ages but I'd love to see some more life pumped into it.
Looks great, I'll need to frame count it and all that but it looks good. It's interesting to see how succesful your damage boosts were, I need to rewatch the TAS, maybe I was just being stupid trying to kill things, losing precious time.
