3D Blast Level Maps

Splits for both Beat the Game and Good Ending categories. Splits separated by Act. Compatible with Autosplitter by BenInSweden.

3D Blast Splits

These are the Best Ending Route maps created by AmberCyprian and Zurggriff. As a note: some of the ring routes are not optimal, as these were made MONTHS ago, when we were first rerouting the game and before the discovery of Freed Flicky Flagging. The route is otherwise correct in terms of what emeralds to take, along with backup emeralds. Any questions on how to read these maps, please reach out to either of the authors.

Best Ending route maps

Practice Hack that adds viewable IGT in Frames (bottom left and top left) and Seconds (3 right most numbers in the top left). Also adds quick restarts via Start + A and instant level select acess via Start + A + B
Must have an orignal NA Rom for 3DB to get the patched, practice hack version.
