Cavalcadence plays Cadence 44: Green Bat #34 (Hard Mode, AMPLIFIED)
For anybody who's interested in custom Cadences (or other characters), the official NecroDancer FAQ has some info about creating custom characters, and even has a link to the pinned thread on the official forums, where people have posted some of their custom creations:

So I was thinking about trying to improve my times a bit in Cadence Hard Mode. I was actually curious to see if I could manage to get a sub-15... However, since I hadn't really tried any Hard Mode speedruns before, I thought I'd ease into it by first trying a few runs where I'd try for 25-30min times (instead of 35-40min), kind of as a warmup. ^_^
A couple runs later... this run happened. ^^; Yep, Green Bat #34! I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've encountered a Green Bat with an Axe... and the Crown of Greed. So it's also the first time I've gotten 120 gold from a Green Bat. ^^
The semi-speedrun actually went pretty well... until 3-2, when my run came to an end basically because I didn't notice a bounce trap in time to avoid getting hit... then didn't adjust properly in time to avoid getting hit a second time. ^^;; Anyway, here's the video... hope you enjoy!
The Green Bat was encountered (Zone 1, Level 3) at around: 3:04
Mini-bosses & bosses:
Z1: (Minotaur & Direbat), (Red Dragon & ?), (Red Dragon & ?), (Coral Riff 1 & Gray Minotaur & Red Dragon).
Z2: (Gray Minotaur & Green Banshee), (Red Dragon & Gray Direbat), (Blood Nightmare & Gray Minotaur), (Deep Blues 2 & Blood Nightmare & Green Banshee).
Z3: (Blood Nightmare & ?).
Some notes and possible points of interest:
0:09 1-1
0:23 Ring of War. Not what I was hoping for, but sure, some extra damage could help. ^^
0:48 Oh, that spear would be nice... but I don't have nearly enough gold... =/
0:52 Hmm, maybe I'll see what's in that hidden shop instead...
0:55 Oh wait, I have the Ring of War! I think that means I only need one bomb to kill the Shopkeeper...
1:03 Hmm, I've never tried this before, but I think this should work...
1:10 Crown of Greed & Axe! I'm more comfortable with the spear, but the axe should be better for speed... ^^

3:36 Hmm, you know what? Let's go back and check out that hidden shop that I didn't get around to checking because the Green Bat distracted me. ^^;
