Special Rules: Any character may be used! Entering Clue Rooms to gain the clue is optional. While you will HAVE to repeat several levels later on [Level 79 is one of the worst cases] due to the way the game is set up, the player MAY repeat the levels to max out items... at the loss of a far faster completion time. The timer begins the INSTANT you hit Start on the title screen and ends when you collect the Sacred Orb and exit Level 100. [Exiting without the Sacred Orb will DQ your game] You must complete the game or your record/attempt will be disqualified!

Special Rules: Any character may be used! ALL Clue Rooms are optional unless you're trying to go for points or fastest completion. While you will HAVE to repeat several levels later on [Level 79 is one of the worst cases] due to the way the game is set up, the player MAY repeat the levels to max out items. You MAY use the Negative Warp on Level 98 only ONCE in your run. Any additional use of this warp will result in your run being disqualified. You may only collect treasure in a room ONCE per loop. [This excludes Treasure Rooms and levels where you are FORCED to collect treasure as it's directly in your immediate path and there's no way to avoid it. Some leniency will be granted for inadvertent collection.]
