Welp...
So Earthworm Jim 3D has a system where you require all udders and marbles to unlock the final boss. This was still required in speedruns to 'complete the game'. As a result, Any% was 100%. With this, Any% is now different and pretty short.
How RTA viable is this? I don't know.
What you need to do is get on the little slope with the elevator on it. A few frames before you fall off it from heading right, you need to press crouch, then 2 frames after, hold A to initiate a spring jump.
Heading right here prevents you bonking your head on the elevator arch. After this, head up and slightly right, releasing A for 1 frame to initiate a mid-air twirl.
If your execution was good enough, you get ontop of the hallway to memory. Take the jump from on top of this tunnel to either the final fight (harder, but faster ofc) or ontop of the dog computer. Then walk over the tunnel to the final fight, and you can hit the loading zone to the Earthworm Kim fight.
If executed correctly, this should bring Any% to around 5 minutes. (The current "Any%" WR is 2:46:37)
