[Update] Eternal Daughter 100% RTA - Completed in 57:56

[Azurinel]

Hello, everyone. My name is Azurinel, and I speedrun Eternal Daughter. I am currently working on a 100% RTA (real time attack) run. I just posted my best time on youtube. Here is the link. My goal is to complete this category of the game in under an hour.

The run has a lot of room for improvement, but you can see my current general route and some neat glitch abuse. Hopefully you like what you see and will watch me stream my future attempts at http://www.twitch.tv/Azurinel.

Eventually, I would like to do a segmented low% run of this game. That means picking up no hearts or scrolls unless they are required, and only getting items that are required to finish the game. Perhaps if any TAS (tool assisted speedrun) programs are created that work with the game, I will create a TAS any% run.

Anyway, let me know what you think of the run, and if you have any advice, I'd love to hear it. Also, if you would like to race this game on Speed Runs Live, let me know and we can set something up. I would be happy to teach any of you the tricks in this game. Races don't have to be a complete game, so don't be discouraged if you think it will be too much work.

Update: I finished a run in 57:56. Feel free to watch it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7GTpshdAdQ
You will see a weird glitch at the end on Baphomet, he just randomly died. Hopefully we can figure out how to repeat the glitch. My current thought is either mojaking him while he was changing from red to white, or his hand going below the screen.

Awesome video. I watched the first half hour and will check out the rest later. What's the glitch to fire full charges so fast?

If you have a charge shot ready and release jump and shoot at the same time, the shot fires. You can then press jump and shoot at the same time again, and when you release them again you fire another shot, and then just keep repeating this as fast as you can (there does seem to be a 3ish frame delay between how fast you can do it, though).

Holding up or down while doing this also works. If you do it while holding up, you will lose mana on each shot and don't seem to fire your sub-weapon. Sometimes when you mess up the jump/attack press you will slide backwards. If you hold down, sometimes messing up the jump/attack press will make you slide forward, and you can't move around while holding down.
