Game objectives

• Aims for fastest completion

Mechanics & Exploits Used

• TAS uses Blink Launch insted of Blink Clip as it pushes Goose a bit further and resolves a problem of dropping the boot somewhere
• TAS doesn't use Fancy Jump clip as it makes Pub reentry more consistent for RTA runs, but we can just perform perfect reentry without additional wiggling
• For Timmy climb (just before bell grab) TAS doesn't need to slide onto the mini-church platform, it's enough to get the necessary height and turn around while grabbing the bell
