I was completely stunned watching this!!!! it's SOOO perfect!!! good job!!! what!!!! I've been watching your no-major skips runs and i thought that was as best as it could be, this knocked my socks off, you're amazing!
Haha, thank you! I'm still a bit unsatisfied with this run - there's a bit over 10 seconds of obvious timeloss that grates on me. I'll come back to it sooner or later.
Finally watched this run from top to bottom and it's fantastic! The only way I can think to even make significant improvement on it would be to get early Dragon Mail? (Also so honored that double firewall jump strat is mentioned in WR video =D .)
Nice! Best of luck; there's a newer route with a lot of time saved, but this is a substantially easier route. If you need help, hop on the discord; there's always folks happy to help!
@@tinahacks I think I just gonna learn this route first so that I can get used to the game mechanics and enemies. Then learn faster routes. I also just joined the discord
also two questions, why bother going through the entire underground area? why not get the magic saber as mouse man and then get the early bird and just go to town?
That's a really good question! You might have noticed that once you transform away from the bird, it's no longer available anymore since it's not actually *UNLOCKED*. Since we require both the bird and lion (which is also conveniently unlocked when we unlock bird!) for the final castle, we end up having to go through that area completely.

One of my favourite games ever. Such a beautiful remake.
Very impressive speed run!
I had never played it before the remake, but IMMEDIATELY fell in love with it. It's just delightful, start to finish.
I'm glad you enjoyed the run!

Omg I remember playing this on the Turbo back in the day. Great run!
Thanks! Someday I'll come back to it - new glitches have made the any% run even wilder nowadays.
This is such a great run. I’m gonna learn this route just because it looks like so much fun to play :)
Definitely do! This is still among my favorite speedruns, full stop.
If you were streaming this I'm so sorry I didn't catch the stream because this is AMAZING!!!!!!! Good jobbbbb bbbbbbb bbb
Very nice run, congratulations!!
There's this cool trick I discovered where you can slide off of the transformation podiums. Might just be visual.
I trying to learn this game for my first speedrun ever and I will be using your route. I will let you know how I go :)

I was wondering why you switch between the old and new art styles before boss fights. Does it make the door open faster?
Mara, the new style shows a little intro picture for every boss fight, so switching to old style saves some time.
I could have SWORN I replied to this - thanks, Jeff! This answer is exactly correct. :)

Insane!

@@tinahacks ohhhh yeah! I forgot lionman is 100% required for the breakable block section in the sky castle, i see, thank you!
you finished the game with one fucking heart. thats painful.
Anything to save time!
