v1.2.3 - Quick fix to adjust default controls so that dropping through platforms is NOT enabled by default as it causes confusion when entering / exiting levels in World 4 - Please note you can toggle this preference in the Speedrun settings Menu, but you should also enable Shift / Gamepad West as a button the enter / exit levels

  • Speedrun Menu Options: Added a new Menu with the following options
    • Timer: You can enable a timer and set it's position between Bottom-Right, Top-Right, and Top-Left
      • Use the "T" key as a shortcut to toggle this
    • Speedrun Mode: Use the Number "9" key as a shortcut to toggle this
      • Clear the fire in the Level 1-1 2nd screen to make it easier to complete without the butterfly
      • Shows Best-Times for levels (see below)
      • Speed up level transitions
    • Individual Level Mode: When you're trying to get the best time on a single level, the Timer will show only the time in the current level and Restarting a level will reset you back to the initial Checkpoint
    • Enter / Exit Level Button: A dedicated button to enter / exit levels; "Shift" by default. You will not have to hold the button down; just press it once to trigger the transition.

  • Bug Fixes;
    • The cursor no longer remains invisible if you pause or reset the game while the butterfly is active
    • The in-game timer no longer counts frames to determine time passed and so should be more accurate
    • Fixed instantaneous level transitions
    • Minor tweak to level 1-5 to make a speedrun path more consistent

Hello everyone; I'm very sorry about the URL issue. This was my first time releasing a game that implements site-locking, and the implementation was clearly not done properly. This was tested to the best of my ability on my end, and it was approved by the team at Armor Games before going live, but clearly the majority of users still have trouble starting the game. I've pushed a new build to production which should disable site-locking altogether. I can only humbly ask that you give the game another try. I spent years working on this, and I know first impressions mean everything, but there's a lot of fun to be had here if you can get past this.
