sticking into a L-shaped structure with floating condition
slipping trick
When Juste is slipping on a floor, you can reduce half of deceleration by mashing left/right key. It was discovered by Yuzuhara_3.
For further traditional tricks, check klmz's submission text.
The reason why I defeated Shadow
Juste could warp to 2 places from Shadow's room, but both of the places are far away from Maxim's room in castleA. Besides I can't perform quick-save once a boss battle begins till defeat it. (The condition will continue even if Juste warps to another place.) Therefore I concluded that defeating Shadow and resetting the game is the best route.
