Timed using Msplit for Android. Here are my splits: http://imgur.com/a/8eRVQ

Whelp, it's my very first recorded speed run ever. You won't see any really crazy skips and glitches here, I just played it safe. But there are a handful of small skips I was able to pull off. Personally, I think it went pretty well for it being my first time. Definitely my new personal record, meeting my goal of a sub two hour time. I'm pretty fired up, Bob.

But there were definitely a few major screw ups here, along with several little mistakes. The biggest mistake was the transition between Metalhead and Dream Weavers. The accidental death here set me back quite a ways. I also had some issues with the super charge ramps in Lofty Castle and Tree Tops (however I did make the proxy at the end of Tree Tops without falling off somehow.) Other accidental deaths took place at Wizards Peak, Terrace Village, and the Dream Weavers transition after Dark Passage. Other than that, (if I recall correctly) the rest of the deaths were intentional, in order to warp to other areas.

On the bright side, this was my very best run of Gnasty's Loot, despite the missed rocket at the end. Everything that went on in the Gnorc Gnexus levels went much better than I thought it would, no accidental deaths at all here. There was a big chunk of Haunted Towers where I didn't have Sparx, yet this part still went smoothly. Was very lucky I didn't get killed here; that would have cost me the infinite super flame and lots of time. Aside from getting knocked around a few times, my Twilight Harbor run also went pretty well.

This was run on epsxe version 1.9.25, using a Sega Saturn Model 2 game pad.
