My main motivation to do this was to look for new strategys and to see, how good I'm at optimizing stuff ;)

Block skip could have been executed better, but it's good as it is.
I decided to kill the ice enemy with a bombchu to be able to activate a forward infinite superslide from it, what looks cool and saves some time.
Scarecrow Song Skip was a pain in the ass. It took me about 2-3 hours to figure out the perfect positions and camera angles for it. The outcome of it is perfect.
I tryed to use a Hyper Infinite Superslide instead of the Recoil Flip over to the second ramp, but some weird game physics made this impossible.
I did Wizrobe battle with 2 jumpslashes instead of 2 arrows, what doesn't cost time, but it skips equipping the bow. I wonder, why I didn't have the idea before :/
I had a great idea for the Snowball section: By using a well placed Bombchu, I'm able to blow up both snowballs with it and gain a HISS from it. The speed of the HISS allowed me to clip past the Snowball ;)
Petrie did the Mega Flip past the gap pretty sub-optimal, because using a Bomb Hover in the beginning allows you to reach the other side with only 2 explosive and without the extra bombchu ;)
Boss Key Skip was another pain in the ass, because it requieres a perfect position, camera angle and angle on the control stick while mega flipping. Fortunately, I had a lot of luck here, so I was able to do it pretty quickly. As I pulled out the bomb on the first possible frame, I did the Boss Key Skip frame perfect :)

I figured out, how to manipulate Goth. If you sidehop, backwalk or superslide over to him, he simply runs and runs and doesn't stop, but if you roll over to him, he waits until you're the perfect shooting position ;)

This temple is probably the hardest temple of the whole game to create a TAS of, so I think, I did a pretty good job for a TAS beginner.
If I had thought about all the hard tricks, I have to pull off in this TAS, I wouldn't have started it, but after reaching the main room it is simply not possible to cancel this TAS ;)
