Hey, I was wondering if using a book glitch at the start is allowed for the any% category. This glitch is done by selecting a level on a save and playing it, then switching to a new save and still having the pop-up to play the level you selected before when entering the book menu. You are able to access the final level this way, but it doesn't/shouldn't count as finishing the run if you beat it since it just shows the normal level finish screen, instead of the game finish screen that displays the final time. I think allowing this glitch would be good for the category because it lets you play one level early, making it easier to complete a run because you can play a more rng dependent level like big jumps or valley earlier, and it only saves the time it would have taken you to travel to that portal. I understand if you guys decide this glitch isn't allowed, since its a little more game breaking than other glitches used like clipping through the walls on maps like spiral, but its 100% no where near as broken as other glitches, like the one where you start with more bells than 0 and theoretically goes up to the max amount you had in the previous save. Anyways, I just thought id ask if it was allowed since most decisions like this are dependent on the situation. Thanks!
I’d say it should be banned but if you wanna run it we could make a new category for it
