Howdy, I was wondering if there is interest in a Gameover% category? Fastest way to blow up the house and everyone in a 5 mile radius. In Thimbleweed Park we have a category like that and it has some great optimizations. I feel this title would be similar with the various ways to trigger the meltdown.
These are my notes from going over the speedruns completed by NESCardinality, Pixel_Kronicle, and RantronBomb. These are meant for a good start and grasp on the run. There are still many things you can do from here to optimize menuing.
Note: There are levels listed with bosses. If you are not at the level listed you missed something along the way
