I am full of confusion. It is obvious to me that you can take better routes and also avoid waiting for enemies. You are expected to study the movement of enemies, whether they are fixed or based on RNG, depending on your control or position just like pac-man. Also branch name should be empty.

This isn't a fun thing for me to remember, but: #4799: arandomgameTASer & Samsara's NES Chase in 01:15.61 Level 1 is even between the two. Levels 2, 3, 4 and 5 are slower in this submission. I see no differences in emulation, apart from a single extra frame of lag on the linked submission, likely due to the QuickNes core being used. On top of that, there's User movie #24955764634818867, which is much faster than both submissions. Also, there's no 100% in this game.
