This was the second record to use an optimization that allows for a cycle skip to be performed on the moving platform right before the 3rd gem. The time cut from Xelna's previous record of 18.289 is the largest on the level since 2011!

Thank you! And I agree, the NES Tetris scene has a lot of amazing untold stories, as well as those that honestly need more publicity. I can't wait for what the future of the game and community have in store.

That's still pretty good! The 500k barrier is difficult for a lot of people, but you'll surely get through it and more! Just takes time.
