Shaving a whole second off Natuso's previous record is pretty impressive. Not sure what else could be improved, Rayman is almost faster than the roots here. :lol:

Each game has their own moderation team and I assume the one for Jungle Run simply has much laxer standards. It's not like there's a lot of people running it anyway.

Both seem to be seeing an uplift in submissions, so maybe this will change in the future for newer runs.

Does the game still work on modern phones anyway?

I would have thought so, especially with RayCarrot, Steo and Miles maintaining a patched version with restored features. It might generate a warning about targeting an old API version on modern Android versions (haven't checked myself), but that should be it I think…

For speedrunners it's probably easier to play on emulator though, at least if you plan on recording videos of your runs. :P

Most phones have built-in recording features now but it's true that they're not always handy.
