I just got the RTA WR for this game.

Things of note:
1. Damage boosting. I don’t know how it works, it feels random when I get it RTA, but it may be faster than normal running speed (which I remember from TASing it is 1.5 pixel/frame, with which I mean it alternates between 1 pixel and 2 pixels each frame).
2. Some guy claims he found a glitch where pausing before double jumping gives extra height, allowing for skips and the like. He seems to get it easily, but neither me nor another runner have been able to replicate it. His video:

3. Magic pixel. Even when enemies are on the edge of platforms, you can still land 1 pixel next to them without being hit or falling off. I’m not sure if this would ever be useful for a TAS, I use it in the RTA in one stage.
I feel like I had something else to say but forgot.
