TAS Competition 2023 Task 3

In Cavern of the Metal Cap, start by closing the textbox. Break 4 of the 5 custom placed metal cap boxes, and then end by exiting via the waterfall to the castle grounds.

You may not BLJ.

Timing starts on the first frame Mario is able to move, and ends on the first fully black frame of the fade-out.
