I wondered if there are LBA speedruns out there. Of course there are.

The current record seems to be 26m26s for a full any% run from start to finish. Honestly crazy stuff haha, check it out: https://www.speedrun.com/lba/run/meo6j69z

I might have to watch this later, it’s so much fun to see how people break games that I’ve spent a lot of time with and think I know inside and out!

I’ve seen a couple of LBA2 from a few years ago and they took advantage of a rather interesting oversight in which if you perform a jump and save the game just as you’re about to reach the maximum altitude from said jump, you can load the game and see that the jump animation restarts from that point. Keep doing that and you can reach pretty much any spot in the game as the trick not only increases your height but also furthers the distance horizontally as well.
