McCrodi | Crash 2 NST any% (cross-game) speedrun in 32:46 (25:53 w/o loads) @McCrodi | Uploaded April 2020 | Updated October 2024, 13 hours ago.
Alright, finally bothered to do Crash 2 for Cross-Game as it is the most complicated one out of three so I was just putting it off.
So you might (or might not, idfk) ask, how it works? Well, it's 'kinda' simple, Crash 1 reads which level was entered and finished. Depending on that, it'll unlock the equivalent level in C1 that was done in C2. For example, entering Bee-Having and not finishing it will unlock Pinstripe because both are 23rd Level of the game. Entering Crash Dash and finishing it will unlock Papu Papu because you finished 5th level which unlocks 6th one, in this case Papu Papu. Entering 6th, 12th, 18th, 24th and 30th level in Crash 1, unlocks the Boss Door in Crash 2 and spits you out of the boss portal in C3. So it's, in that order, Papu Papu, The Lost City, Koala Kong, High Road and N. Brio.
The route was picked the way it's the fastest and bosses are usually pretty fast. Also Green Gem is collected in The Eel Deal in order to skip Castle Machinery so we can skip doing Spaced Out.
Loads are +8.4 because of Activision Logo, lol.
