Cavalcadence plays Melody 19: Speedrun, sub-9:30 (All Zones Mode: AMPLIFIED)
So I was thinking about the fact that I haven't played Melody in quite a while... so I thought it might be fun to try some speedruns!
Of course, I quickly discovered I was rather out of practice with Melody speedrun strats... ^^; But after the first few runs, things started to go a bit better. ^^
And eventually... this run happened. =) I wasn't quite able to get the sub-9 I was hoping for (so, no new PB)... but I was able to get a sub-9:30! Which, given how my first few speedrun attempts had gone, I was pretty happy with. =)
So anyway, here's the video... hope you enjoy!
