While this map is extremely short, you can use a Morph Pounce to bypass a downward path and land a few jumps from the exit. It's probably the most difficult Morph Pounce I've found.

In level 28, climb the center hill's stealth track and get on the very last part of it. Morph Pounce while aiming for the platforms above, making sure to get as much height as possible out of your double jump. If done correctly, you'll land on the floating platform and avoid the trigger that causes all of the enemies to spawn.
The lower path you skip by doing this contains a door (with the spikes you have to dodge), a race to outrun some toxic water, and traveling along some stealth tracks. I'd say this roughly saves 30-45 seconds.
Of note, backtracking through the level after performing this trick causes some glitches. When going down the stealth track toward the door, you encounter a hall of mirrors effect where the image becomes smeared. The segment with the rising water is completely broken as it no longer kills you. It also breaks the camera once the sequence starts.
