It really sucks you have to assign angle up/down to the L/R buttons.
Stopping at your ship/saving doesnt add time does it? Well other than the time it takes for the animations...

I'm not really sure why I wanted to share this, but I got a :32 minute any% last night on stream and I guess I just wanted to share it. To be perfectly honest, the run isn't really up to the standards I've been trying keep for my RTAs, but this was my first :32 and I think it's kind of a huge milestone for me running the game. I made a lot of silly mistakes and there was a lot more slop than I'd like, so here's hoping I can improve it at some point. The run was done on console using a powerpak so I could utilize a patch that displays the gametime in minutes and seconds as opposed to the traditional hours and minutes, so I guess it's got that black mark against it (I didn't go into the run expecting a :32 lol). That aside, I'm probably going to take a break from gametime strats and work on realtime stuff for a while and maybe if I'm ever feeling masochistic enough to RTA this game hard again, I'll go for :31. Peace y'all.
This is my first recorded run Ive ever done. I play pretty bad in it but I still manage a :55 somehow. Also the quality is bad and it lags because my computer is pretty crappy. I think having wsplit on the stream was the cause, but im not sure so hopefully my next run that I record will be a bit better looking.

Going back to 100%, I did get a run a few days ago that ended up being a :53 (but barely!)
The realtime for this run is 1:25:30. The realtime for Hotarubi's :50 is 1:23:34. This means that when I beat Hotarubi's realtime, I will have a :51 at best. I know that realtime has been accepted for any% (and Garrison is still working on a submittable run,) but is it fine for 100%? Should I just turn my attention to game time when I get the realtime record?

I just wanted to post a small update on my progress with the game. Since I got my original :32, I've switched up entirely from gametime oriented runs to realtime (as I'm sure most people are aware). We've managed to reroute any% to cut out something like 8 door transitions, 2-3 items and all pauses from the game, which drives the realtime of my run much lower than we originally thought we were going to do. Since I started, I've managed to cut off 1:27 from hotarubi's supposed "realtime" oriented run to the point where the runs feels pretty dramatically different from the traditional gametime strategies. I recently started recording my attempts with the goal of submitting a run to SDA. Currently, I'm sitting at 47:58 for any% (hotarubi's :31 clocked in at 49:25) and I'm aiming to cut off at least another 20 seconds just from the huge glaring errors in my run. My run got perfect phantoon luck, but I had a terrible botwoon and one of the most embarassing draygon fights I've ever had in a personal best.
I'm still working out the kinks with the actual recording process, the recording has some major audio crackle and ended up either dropping 30 seconds worth of frames or just recorded too fast. Until then, here's the encode of my current best, hoping to beat it very soon by a large margin:
