I am watching this again and still blown away at how cleanly you hit the katana moments. Does that end up being a big part of very low times (i guess dev or lower, for reference) on a lot of levels?? i am getting dragged back into firing this up for a little bit, thank you

short answer: yes, they add up and matter a lot at the high ranks but for getting dev times don’t super matter as much

long answer: i’d say the order of importance for fast times are:

  1. routing: just the actual way you move through the level and organize your demon elimination, ammo, and weapon discards, shortcuts, etc. (majority of time is saved here)
  2. execution: just how fast you can actually do all of those things, how straight of lines you run in (a lot of time is saved here)
  3. “tech”: stuff like shooting/reflecting enemy bullets, slashing/shooting your own projectiles, extremely niche physics things that all require too many details/explanation to write out here (each of these things save fractions of seconds, but they add up)
