Such a bittersweet time! Sub-10 is tantalizingly close, but even with some new techniques, there's still a healthy dose of luck needed.

Few things to talk about:

1) Dragos Skip: If you mash the A button on the controller at the right time while the game is loading, you can merge the intro sequence and Dragos' conversation after that. Trouble is, it seems that "the right time" is a moving target, and I still haven't figured out how to make this one consistent.

2) Dice Swap: Say Die A is in a slot for a job, and Die B is in your inventory. If you press the button to start the job for Die A, then release Die B over Die A while you're wiggling the mouse, then Die B will be in the slot and be consumed, but the game will give you a result as if Die A was still in the slot. This is an absolute game-changer, and while I still need good dice in my inventory to make it work, it means that more runs will make it further (unless I lose them to the Dragos Skip).

3) Tutorial Scroll: If a tutorial window opens while you're in a location/cutscene, you can scroll up and down to set up for your next move. You need a bit of intuition to figure out where that should be, but it can be a significant time-saver for long distances.

I might do a commentary run on this if I can't get a sub-10 soon. It's so close, I can taste it...
