GG on the new PB/WR and the IL, AmoebaUK.
It's a really big improvement on the last PB. I wonder how much further we can go now.

Well, if you add up the current IL records, all of which are AmoebaUK's, and his best for Mr Dark, you get to 21 minutes and 3 seconds. Looks like that's more than 3 minutes less than the current record for a full-game run?

The 2 seconds in Ancient Forest won't add much to it.

GG SuperSqank.
AmoebaUK is still a distant first, but maybe some competition has arrived.
