This is a guide with some basic tips for running the full game as fast as possible! Hopefully this'll help you with getting better times in the Any% category!
- Move during the fade-in
When you click play the game will fade in, and the in-game timer starts at the beginning of the fade-in. You are also able to move during this fade-in. If you hold W towards the door during the fade-in, you'll waste no time at all! (If you are on mobile, use the dynamic joystick to do this)
- Do some endings at the same time
When you are completing the Flooded ending, there are multiple phases where you need to rejoin. You can save a lot of time by completing other endings during Phase 1 and Phase 2, like Shoplifting and Freezer!
- Use the fast text option!
If you don't know, in the settings there is an option to have text go fast. This is a very important option to turn on during endings like Chips, Ultra Death, and Flooded!
UPDATE: process is complete, please notify me if i missed any, or if i make the mistake of verifying a run that didn't wipe save data for levels that require it.
i've been ignorant for like the past year or so, so i'm going through the level leaderboards and rejecting all runs that don't wipe
