All Golden Arrows Category

This is a guide for All Golden Arrows, a topic I've submitted on KawaseFan.net a while ago. It is essentially the 100% All Exits category, with no requirements other than exiting all the doors while in Start mode. Can someone teach me how to invent a new category for it, please? Anyway, here it is:

All Golden Arrows in Original Umihara Kawase is a speedrun you can attempt on either of the 2015 versions. Instead of running a single level or path, this is a 100%, fresh file to finish run. Once you have all 60 Golden Arrows, you've completed it. If you've already completed the fields you have left, you can even start, select, and quit.

In order to get an exit's Golden Arrow, you must complete it in Start Mode. In Practice Mode, if you completed a field and got a Silver Arrow, then completed it in Start Mode and didn't get a PB, it'll still display your best time and a Golden Arrow. As long as you complete a field in Start Mode once, you'll have the Golden Arrow for that field.

In this run, you will have to do Field 28. Fortunately, you can time it in your head to make sure you clear the most fields possible before that happens.

You can do these routes in any order that suits you. Of course, I've cut out Fields 0 and 1, since you always play them and they go without saying.

Here are all the different routes you have to do for an optimal run:

Let's start with the obvious ones: 2 > 10 > 11 > 12 > 36 > 52 > 55 and 2 > 10 > 11 > 12 > 36 > 45 > 50 > 51 > 56 > 57.

Here are others that complete the most and repeat the least.

2 > 3 > 4 > 5 > 6 > 7 > 8 > 14 > 15 > 16 > 17 > 20 > 21 > 22 >23 exit after 30 minutes> 28

2 > 10 > 11 > 8 > 14 > 15 > 16 > 17 > 30 > 33 > 37 > 38 > 41 > 42 > 43 > 49 > 52 (quit)

2 > 10 > 11 > 8 > 14 > 15 > 16 > 17 > 20 > 21 > 22 > 38 > 41 > 42 > 26 > 31 > 46 > 47 > 48 > 56 (quit)

2 > 10 > 11 > 8 > 14 > 15 > 16 > 17 > 30 > 49 (quit)

2 > 10 > 11 > 18 > 23 > 24 > 25 > 29 > 34 > 35 (quit)

2 > 10 > 11 > 18 > 23 > 24 > 42 (quit)

2 > 10 > 11 > 8 > 14 > 15 > 40 > 35

So that's 9 routes, and 5 that do Field 8. Do these in whatever order you want, then do the last 3 in whatever order you want. Quit whenever you've already got the Golden Arrow in a field.

Your final time should be under 3 hours. Of course, restart the run if you get Field 28 before completing 22 to 23, and if you ever get a game over or mess up too much.
