SUB 2:30 IS POSSIBLE.
I'm not doing it, i hate lag high jumping
Edit: I did it nvm 2:29.76 but i didnt record it
It might be possible to bring the number way down by like 15 seconds, unless it skips a checkpoint.
Let me elaborate:
1:56 - This part is very much possible to lag high jump, unsure if it skips a checkpoint. I couldn't test this part efficiently because of the dumb eyes but I know it's possible because I ledge grabbed it once... while still holding space.
0:55 - If you first try this part then sub 2:30 is possible. I couldn't because I suck at LHJ.
1:10 - This X pusher part you could completely skip the bottom pathway and ledge grab the conveyer, I chickened out on that part. Potential RNG fiesta there.
1:24 - not a time save, I just wanted to note that I somehow survived at 0 hp. Full promise, i dont use hacks, they aren't my style. I assume there's hidden decimal point counter in the HP regen process because I'm confident that this wasn't the first time this happened to me.
Potential skips:
1:49 - I was wondering if you could ledge grab the ceiling of the "orb spawner", it looks very close but maybe the X-pusher could help in some way
1:13 - This part, the orbs are close enough where you could hit them. Potentially even ledge grab them but I doubt you'd have enough time to make it to the ladder. Theorizing that you could ledge grab bounce of one of the orbs into the purple hand.
That's all folks!
