Hey I downloaded Mermaid Swamp Remake some time ago and I wonder when the time starts because I have a choice of voice after pressing start and whether I should start from start or choose a voice I have it in the rules of the game in The Boogie Man and The Hanged Man and whether the principle of beginning should start from choosing a character's voice?

what

start time at the input that begins the opening cutscene

Timer starts when selecting either of the voice options because they start the game. As far as I know both options are allowed because they don't make a difference either way.
