I feel like 100% needs to be split into two categories, or at least add a Route option to future submissions.
"100%" starts from a new save file, and requires you to both collect all 60 Starfish and finish Fishing Net Rescue.
"All Starfish" may start from any existing save file that has 0/60 Starfish, and only the Starfish themselves are required. Levels may be played in any order (though chronological would be fastest), and it is not necessary to finish any specific level during the run.
All Starfish would save time in all the same areas as the Any% NG+ route, with the added benefit of Starfish being saved upon quitting the level. This could be used to skip the Luxo Ball section in Training With Gill, for example.
The NSO version has been released, and the MP1 leaderboards have already added it. I think it's time we added it for MP2 as well.
To the admins, or whomever it may concern:
I'd like to request the addition of a new category, called "100% NG+". The rules are identical to 100% except for the following:
The run starts from a save file that has access to The Lab, but no Gems or Keys (Password: Circle, Square, Circle, Square, Square, X, Square, X).
Timing begins either when the save file is loaded, or when you press X to confirm after inputting the password.
Can we make a category for viewing all unique death/failure animations? I think it would be interesting.
Note: "unique animations" does not include different backgrounds
I'm about to make the 100% leaderboard less empty, but I need some clarification on timing. Assuming I do Fishing Net Bonus last, should the clock stop when the last Pebble drops, or when the save prompt appears on the Level Select?
