Great update!

Although as a speedrunner I would like a more challenging crown times maybe as a secret 4th crown (1 above gold or something). The current community StarFixHQ SoB is at 2:00.57 closing in on the sub 2min. a crown with 2:00-2:10 wont be that achievable for casual players but it would be a fun challenge for speedrunners and those who want challenge (no individual has reached 2:00.xx yet, mine is at 2:01.57).

Anyway there is 2 bug I would like to report. First a simple one, Replays get desynced if you jump 2 frames in a row. This desync is quite easy to get on web since you can perform it by just holding your jump-key. this bug also exists on the windows version although you wont encounter it as often since you need to use two different keybinds, I tested it on V1.2.0 and you really need to try to get the bug in order to experience it.

The second bug is in Ultima, If you respawn (contact and Radius)  before getting the next checkpoint excluding the first cp but after killing the boss. The game slows down to 1-2 fps untill the boss hit sound plays once more(usually around 2-3s). This is a bug I experience a lot from hunting Ultima in radius. On web you sometimes get a different outcome though. Instead of game slowdown you will hear 5-10 boss hit sounds in quick succession and a tiny bit of lag barely noticeable.

There is of course more "glitches" but they are beneficial for speedrunning and therefore I don't want them removed :)

Ah, good catches! I am still slowly working on getting the web version updated, so I'll add these two issues to the bug list to fix. (Thanks for the detailed reports!)

I don't think I'm going to add more secrets to the game at this point, so let me just say that I'm super impressed by how much you speedrunners have managed to get that number down!

I just found a new bug although this one is using one of the cheat codes specifically oneshot. If you complete the game and go the debug room, you are able to crouch on top of the completion overview things and with that open the pause menu. But there is no way of closing the pause menu since the pause button is disabled by oneshot. so you have no way of removing this pause screen and no way to exit back to the main menu (you are soft-locked).

Also update on the StarfixHQ community SoB, It's currently at 1:58.67 which means that we have broken the 2min barrier :)

Sorry for the late reply, but you can still use the CANCEL button to close the menu in these cases! It's still curious though, so I'll probably still fix it. Also, good job on getting that record time even further down!
