Video:
In the video I linked, I show myself going from the start of world 8, to level 7 in time attack mode, everting down once, then quickly navigating back to world 8 so I have infinite upward evert.
Not sure if this is allowed because you have to go to the menu mid-way through the run. I was thinking that, if it was allowed, there would have to be the restriction that you would need to be actually in world 8 before leaving to do the time attack glitch. Maybe you don't need that restriction, though, as it probably takes the same amount of time to load from the menu as it does to load from completing level 7.
Is this allowed?
Also, lmk if the link didn't work.
Personally, I don't see why it wouldn't be allowed. You mentionned the fact you are going back to the menu, which is done during 100% runs to reload level 7 once you collected everything.
Any% True Ending used to be my least favorite category, because of the previous glitch used to skip a big part of the level, which was very inconsistent. I may come back to this category someday thanks to this discovery!
Wait, so can you just exit the level the second you hit the flag on level 7 to go set this up? Or do you have to wait until level 8 loads?
That's a good question. It depends when a level is officially unlocked on a fresh file
I may say something stupid because I don’t remember exactly how the game works, but it feels like going back to the menu mid-run kinda invalidates the run? Couldn’t you just start from the last level right at the beginning at that point? idk

Edit: I don’t remember how 100% works but I guess if there’s the argument that on a fresh file you could get to level 8 then activate the glitch and finish the game… I guess that’s fine?
Just checked how level unlocking works:
So the next level loads when you hit the flag and press space. As long as you see the black screen with "Ready?" or whatever message pops up, the next level is unlocked.
So I guess for this strat you'd hit the level 7 flag in the lowest evert level (sub-world 8 or whatever it's called), then press space, then immediately go to the menu and do the time attack thing. Idk. Does that sound right?
