Around 1 hour 14 minutes to beat (1 hour 21 mins based on my recording times but includes pause breaks). This was the quickest playthrough. Browny really destroys the game with double homing missles and weapon swapping continuously. For the final boss the double spreadshots shredded it the fastest, but everything else went down the fastest with double homing. This was still with perks active but 1 hit deaths and on Hard Mode. The playthrough with Lance was much harder and I will definately add commentary to that playthrough, as its more realistic. Browny is pretty overpowered with this technique, but enjoyable. He also has a triple jump a dash and a grappling hook which can get through some vertical areas very quickly, or reach new areas that other characters cannot.
At one point I completed 4 stages in a row without getting a game over. Early on I completed 3 or more stages in a row too. I only restarted a few stages but I show the game over screens on those sections to indicate where I had to continue. The game has infinite continues so I didnt show the actual failed runs where all lives were exhausted, only the successful segments. Let me know if you would like commentary added over this playthrough to go into more detail. I will consider it, but first I will add commentary to my Lance playthrough. This was a little too easy. A review of the game will also be coming soon. I would try the hardest modes, which are 1 CC modes, but dont know if I want to grind to unlock them since they cost 15,000 credits each. Its overkill as Ive played through this game atleast 5 times already and did a decent amount of the challenges.
