I've seen things like level specific speedruns for Jak 2. I don't know if there's anything similar in the Rayman Speedrunning community but there is clearly some precedent. And if there's any interest, I imagine there's not really much stopping level-specific speedrunning charts from being setup.

EDIT: Well, looks like they do have individual level runs: https://www.speedrun.com/rayman_origins/levels

Oh okay! Cool!

But am I allowed to tape down my shift key? The reason I do it is because of my physical disability..

I actually got 0:58 a couple days later, but speedbot hasn't shown it since the run hasn't been vertified. I'll put the run in here for now, and delete this post when speedbot shows it.

I’m going to speed run the first level of this game. But I need to know if my accessibility feature of taping the shift key down is against the rules.
