Yes! Happy! 😊 I did it. Below one hour and deathless, what I was aiming for by now. I wanted to achieve this result before the weekend, and for that I needed to put some extra energy. So now I feel like taking a break of this run. Maybe 1 week? 1 month? 1 year? Idk 😜
Details below are organized as level name, game time when the level was beat and the time I spent to beat that specific level:
Forest Of Silence: 05m16s , 05m16s
Castle Wall: 08m20s, 03m04s
Villa: 13m22s, 05m02s
Tunnel: 18m46s, 05m24s
Castle Center: 35m36s, 16m50s
Duel Tower: 38m09s, 02m33s
Tower Of Execution: 41m57s, 03m48s
Room Of Clocks & Death: 42m55s, 00m58s
Clock Tower: 45m32s, 02m37s
Dracula: 51m04s, 05m32s
Some improvements are already obvious to me. I wanted so much to get this run done, that from certain point of Castle Center onwards I got extremely cautious, losing time with that. Not counting with other obvious mistakes that I can just correct in future tries (highlighting the medusa + blood skeleton part at Tower Of Execution - thrilling!). Apart from that, I also feel like having to study my run more profoundly, comparing it with more efficient ones.
A mention about Left Tower Skip: I just can't get it done while recording 😅, it takes me forever! Running through the tower seems faster. Another easy improvement I can train on.
This is an awesome game, instead of what is widespread through the internet these days. I remember of my afternoons sometime in the year 2000, walking completely lost through the Forest Of Silence. If I could, I'd love to play this game for the first time once again.
Next goal: Below 48 minutes (or 3rd place at the current ranking, if the categories console and emulation were merged).
Thanks!
