This glitch is too strong! :O
So currently the only glitch in use for the 1.6 any% run is the super sonic flight (posted above)?
cool, less to learn more time to practice.

Yea I love the flight glitch. And sorry Gamningnerd I took that record too ^^'
There's a little optimization on the second key where you don't have to stomp and lose less momentum.
How it works is you let go off the right button instead of the stomp move. It's pretty precise though because the key visual effect is utterly misleading since the hitbox where you grab it is actually really small.

Just saw an ESJ Thread, may be I'll try that too. Loved the game, and speedrunning it could be very interesting.
And only 1 glitch so far? Great!

Not exactly Rethak. Other glitches or strats rather were patched out by the devs. This super flight one was just found recently.

Well it depends .. 1.04 is the fastest because you can manipulate two boss fights. I'm not sure how much time the super flight saves but it wouldn't be close to the 1.04 version since there's a lot more glitches missing.
For example there was a level where you could stomp through the floor and skip everything.

I can dedicate a section of my site to organizing information and leaderboards for this game, after AGDQ is over, as I'm hosting the FAQ's and such, and I don't want to put anything towards anything else.
That would be cool, though I should mention that I've recently been made a moderator of the ESJ subreddit http://www.reddit.com/r/ElectronicSuperJoy/ to make a "speedrunning general" post for pretty much that purpose. I'm not sure what all to include - a link to the world record in what categories exist, probably a link to this thread, any guides once they are made, and maybe promote the SRL #superjoy channel if we intend to use it. My primary model for planning it out would be what Cali has done for Antichamber, (e.g. this: http://www.reddit.com/r/antichamber/comments/1ajjji/speedrunning_general/ ), although we already have IL leaderboards built-in, a speedrun leaderboard with Twitch VOD links could be cool to have.
Also, on the subject of the segmented run, timing it will be slightly tricky, but I believe I've discovered the method. If you have the in-game timer running and record some extra footage of the next level on the end, we can time it correctly.
Stumbled upon an interesting trick during practice today... http://www.twitch.tv/gn_ver2/c/3543674
It's basically a mid-air jump while falling off a ledge and smashing. There is 1 frame during the smash in which you're still "grounded" allowing for a jump to be performed, even though the sprite is not physically on any ground tile. This seems to only work while falling off a ledge and not while jumping off of one. Doesn't seem like much of a useful trick, but it's interesting to say the least.

ESJ got played at AGDQ! http://www.twitch.tv/speeddemosarchivesda/b/495040558 (beginning time of relevant experience: 05:33:30)
I feel like I need to complete a 100%-shaped run now, just so someone has.
Looks like another side effect of the corner step (character widens his legs, you can only jump if moving, but you can jump even after leaving the platform if moving, necessary for Babylon's jumps, slipping is necessary for I Blame My Mother). I think I did this once, accidentally, in hell club, and yet still could not get the star (because I believed you could get it from that flag. Ah, to be young, innocent, and unsuccessful). Something like this could be useful in I blame Your Mother - for a while I've been smashing through the block to the left of the center instead of the one in the center and holding right so I smash down for a while before landing on a platform.

I asked to the ESJ Support if it will be possible to have the .exe of the version 1.04. I'm waiting for the answer !
I will try to do a run on the 1.06 but this RNG makes me crazy !!!
Oh yes, this time can be beat easily, i've done several errors but currently i can't train me on this version

I think a 1.06 run can be sub27 event without rng manipulation and the level skip. The 27:00 run isnt deathless. With good patterns and deathless, 27:00 can be beat with a 1.06 game.
But of course, a deathless 1.04 will be better

I'd been doing a lot of 1.04 grinding before this new change, it's a shame the manipulation has gone. As was said before, it would be good to get an overall agreement on one version. Personally I think 0.4 makes the most sense assuming we can get hold of a good .exe verison of it - it's much less random and a lot of people are used to running on that version (myself included). Good idea Elektro, hopefully he'll be amenable to letting us run 1.04. The dev seems like a cool guy from the conversation or two I've had with him.
