[Rusted Moss] "Mossy Platinum" Speedrun (0:55:59 IGT)
14SNIPER SKIP GLITCH WAS PATCHED 5/18/2023 -- this route is no longer possible on current patch, if you want to run this route you'd have to downpatch to version 1.41.
This challenge is to get Ending D without ever talking to the Seer, which means that you don't get moss jump or fast travel. Ending D requires you to beat every boss in the game, as well as beat a secret true last boss at the end once you've unlocked it, while this isn't a 100% speedrun it still makes you engage with most of the game's content. The "Mossy Platinum" speedrun achievement asks you to do this in 1:40:00, which is honestly pretty lenient if you know some skips and are decent at the bosses.
Rusted Moss is a fun grappling metroidvania, the mechanics take some getting used to but once it clicks you've got a lot of fun mobility options. I like grappling and I like rocket jumping, but I like rockets more -- this route is almost definitely not the ideal one, since I go across the map as soon as I can in order to pick up the rocket launcher... finally got it under an hour, so I'm content with this run despite dying a few times.
