Rayman 2 speedrunning

[Hunchman801]

Very impressive new world record from Torcnein, he beat Torsinn and he did not even go for for the hard route in the Sanctuary of Water and Ice.

Indeed, there's been a lot of interesting progress lately.

Payman found a new damage boost on Nintendo 64 for crossing that chasm in the Bayou:

I always felt that the pirate damage boost in Bayou 2 could be improved slightly, so I just figured out that if you manipulate the pirate's hook animation with some roll boosts you can line up his shots to help Rayman get across the gap, if done optimally you can make it across without helicoptering and get a ledge boost while also keeping your roll boost from the damage boost.

Finally got the sub 1:50 goal time on this category. Early game was great, mid game was okay, late game was alright except for the end of Rock and Lava, and end game was a rough start but holding together and getting final boss cutscene skip 2nd try save the goal time. There is about 2 minutes of time save left in the category but for now I am done with this category.

The jump on Umber's head was a pretty close one here.

I believe there are no Lum requirements to enter certain levels?

Surprisingly got sub 31 a lot faster than I thought I would on this category. This run was incredible the only major time losses were slow tornado skip skip, missing a 5 lum in Marshes, and dying on purple lum skip in Bayou.

Good point, I also remember there are many more wrong warps.
