This was a good start, and then things started going downhill to such an embarrassing extent that I don't feel like this is worthy of a submission. In the meantime, though, people can learn from my mistakes with this run. Shoutouts to TheOnlyOne for the route, and Sairaan for the initial routing and testing. Abstract route: -Enter cave, pick up egg with sick parkour skills, Ribbon -Cocoa 1 -Forest miniboss (skipped) -Beach miniboss (not skipped because game is weird) -Ashuri 1 -Kotri 1 -Trigger slippers cutscene, warp to beach, Pandora -Warp to forest, enter Golden Riverbank, Ashuri 2 -Evernight Peak miniboss (skipped, and seriously this one sucks in particular) -Saya (egg is picked up during fight by some form of trickery that most definitely is not just rolling the dice thank you very much) -Enter Aurora Palace, pick up egg, Nieve -Rita -Nixie (egg is picked up during fight) -Buy Def. Down, fight Alius 1 - Alius 2 -Warp to park, enter bridge, Vanilla -Side Chapter -Enter graveyard, Kotri 2 -Warp to cave, Cicini -Buy Def. Down, start Ch.4, skip two miniboss fights, hopefully don't facetank tons of damage, Alius 3 -Buy Speedy, warp to forest, run around a bit inside cave, Cocoa -Buy Cocoa Bombs (I forgot to do this until after Kotri 3), warp to beach, enter volcanic caverns, eyeroll through bomb room, Kotri 3 -Enter crystal cave, use bomb on crystals, warp back to town -Buy Amulet Cut and Def. Down, most definitely do not quick load at the first sign of unfavorable town RNG (or at least save the game first), Miru -Noah 1, start realizing I forgot to advance my splits two bosses ago -Noah 2 -Bang head forcefully against Noah 3 until I beat game, then feel cheesed off because of the RTA time loss --- Things I could've done better: - Die less. In particular, die less on Ch.4, Kotri 3, and Noah 3. These sequences suck because the margin of error becomes much lower (ie: I start taking life-threatening damage) and I'm not good enough to dodge all of the damage. - Smoother platforming. Not big time loss as such, even when I was hilariously messing up my wall jumps in the Icy Summit (Nixie's area), but it started being a problem when I was going from the Volcanic Caverns to the Spectral Cave, what with all the dying and restarting. - Figure out a foolproof way to pick up the egg in Saya's fight via the block drop. It costs me roughly 15s per try, and I don't really want to chance it with the column lasers (plus she's guaranteed to do the block drop after her first action anyway). - Remember to split properly. I realized I didn't split around when I beat Miru and started on Noah 1, which was rather embarrassing. - Not quick load after warping from the Volcanic Caverns without first saving the game. The autosave is weirdly broken for reasons I cannot fathom in this specific scenario; instead of loading from my last autosave, it loads from my last hard save. This cost me some order of minutes having to re-do the Kotri fight and the crystal 'fight', and the quick load was equally stupid because it would've cost me mere seconds to just scope out the place fully.
