Everyone except douglas (for obvious reasons) is allowed to submit times for this game.  Please PM me with new times; this thread should be for route discussion, video submissions etc.

The Great Forest
1. TEM - 0.20.04 (I will never ever EVER beat this time as long as I live)

The Plains
1. TEM - 0.17.61 (owned.  Nuff said.)

Here's the basic route for The Great Forest (http://download.yousendit.com/9D8742A214B9C223) with several glaring mistakes.  Otherwise, it's good.

Interesting route - you know the bit where you go underneath the top level and across the water (12-13 secs in)?  I'm pretty sure it's quicker to go over the top there.  Otherwise that's pretty much my route, although it seems your execution is better :)

Here's a better-optimized version (http://download.yousendit.com/55F5971168CA4DE8), but still a second or so off my record.

A quick note: about 2.5 seconds in, I mash Shift.  Occasionally, this stops Sonic from freefalling and levels him out, not making him go on the lower platform and saving time.  I use this trick in both runs.  It's kind of hard to see with Hypercam's malicious framerate, but oh well.

17:48 The Plains.

Incidentally, how do you find it to TA?  Obviously I never went through the whole route-planning process because I already knew what the fastest way was.  Oh, and you can press R mid-run to die causing a restart, if that's any help.

EDIT: 19.83 Great Forest.  To get any faster I'm gonna have to move the finish to right next to the start or turn debug mode on >_>

Nice work on the Plains.

To answer your question: I just ran around the level and chose the fastest route from there.  It was quite simple actually (no offence to your level making skills).

And I knew about the R thing.  Yeah.
