This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see http://tasvideos.org/4129M.html. TAS originally published on 2020-03-13.

Alter Ego is an NES homebrew port of a ZX Spectrum puzzle game of the same name. You control a character who can switch places with his shadow a limited number of times in each stage. The goal is to collect all the items without touching any enemies. To further complicate matters, the blue-outlined items can only be collected by the shadow, whereas the pink-outlined items can only be collected by the main player.

This hardly stops aiqiyou, though, who barely avoids death in a number of puzzles and finishes in record time, while also improving the previous movie (http://tasvideos.org/2346M.html) by 5.44 (327 Frames @60.098813897441 FPS) seconds.

You can watch the complete run being played back on a console (https://youtu.be/Lgpr5yYX8IE).
