Nice improvement here, going from 55:xx straight to 52:59. Still plenty of room to improve, in particular Stardust Speedway/Hydrocity/Oil Ocean/Titanic Monarch were all fairly bad. Probably going to take a break from Any% runs for now though.

I got 3 of the newly found 2-frame-window cutscene skips, saving ~32.5 seconds total. The rest of the cutscene skips that I currently know to be possible could potentially save an additional ~26.5 seconds.

This was done on Switch, with the initial (and currently only) console version. Timing starts at selecting the file and ends when the timer stops on the final level. Using an already completed file is allowed as long as it has no emeralds, so you don't have to deal with the opening cutscene; after doing so many attempts this means I start with max lives (doesn't matter and I never die anyway) and max score (though a glitch makes it temporarily go higher during score tallys). I'm a woman.
