"I think 1'20"9 is the best possible time"
It really is a great feeling to have your mod continue receiving speedrun times multiple years after release, thanks a bunch!
Nicely done. I project that the best time achievable with your approach is 1'20"7.
Wait aren't Aar and BLink youtubers?
Yep, both BLink and Aar have youtube channels where they sometimes post Cave Story-related videos, and they also have accounts here on these forums. It's not uncommon for people to double-dip like that.
Yea, I remember subbing or watching their vids.
They deserve more attention for sticking with Cave Story, and with Aar TF2.
Race to it begins... now.
If I drink enough windex I will become blue like Aar, and sync up my soul with his and be able to match best possible TAS time.
I promise this was entirely accidental.
This all looks... Very inorganic, like a Japanese NES romhack, if I really have to be honest here. I feel the layout updates really could've looked better with at least some sort of guidance by some level design testers or Aar himself.

I made sure Aar gave full feedback on every single TILE I placed on the map before I uploaded this.
But in all seriousness this is about the best I could do. Changing things this much while still keeping the ability to 1:1 speedrun times is something we should be gracious is possible.
