I love YaBB 1G - SP1!

Hi everyone! I’m currently working on a speed run for the single player mode of Gish and right now I think that I’ve found all the major shortcuts and exploits. If we don’t count the last level of the game, the total time at the moment is 20:56. I still haven’t found a fast and good way for the last level, but I think that it will take less than a minute. Right now it seems that I have the fastest routes for all the other levels, but I’d like to know if you guys think I could have seriously better times for some of the levels. I guess I can win about 20-30 seconds if I work hard on optimizing all the routes. My ultimate goal seems to be getting the total time to about 21:00. Of course if you guys have any questions and/or suggestions, please let me know.

Here’s a full list of all the times:

1-1 0:38
1-2 0:33
1-3 0:36
1-4 0.22
1-5 0:38
1-6 0.14
1-7 0.18
= 3:19

2-1 0:41
2-2 0:57
2-3 0:53
2-4 1:29
2-5 0:59
2-6 0:27
2-7 0:09
= 5:35

3-1 1:07
3-2 0:26
3-3 0:34
3-4 0:44
3-5 1:28
3-6 0:20
3-7 0:16
= 4:55

4-1 1:04
4-2 0:24
4-3 0:09
4-4 0:34
4-5 0:37
4-6 0:09
4-7 0:07
= 3:04

5-1 0:26
5-2 1:35
5-3 0:41
5-4 0:38
5-5 0:43
5-6 - - -
= 4:03

==> 20:56 (+5-6)

Well, I just found two rather hard but time winning shortcuts, so the current total time is now 20:11. That means 45 seconds of improvement Smiley

I'll now work on the last level and I hope to start recording my runs after I've found a good route for the last level...

Whoa, I've just been playing Gish, and man it is not an easy game. With the physics the way they are it is too finicky to do anything properly. The first thing I thought when I saw the game was "speed run," and lo and behold, you've already started on one. Hurry up and post it, I'm dying over here.

Right now it's been pretty hectic for me IRL, so I've had a short break from the game. Atm I think I have about 1/3 of all the levels recorded, and I plan to record the rest of them in next week or so. I have found some new and really neat shortcuts and I hope to have a sub-20 as the total time. Of course there's some room for improvement in some of the levels but right now I think sub-20 will be reality if I succeed in recording as good times as I've done on my practise runs. I don't think I'll bother posting it if I fail to have a total time of sub-20, but I have my hopes up to succeed.
