I found this glitch (door warping) in around 2015. Nobody ran the game yet. Figured nobody ever would, so I never made a video. Turns out people did. Oops.
Door warping is done by opening the inventory and a door on the same frame. In some cases, it will also warp you the next time you enter a door normally. I used it everywhere it seemed useful. Using it on other doors will either softlock you, put you out of bounds, or simply not fit the route.
This run is very improvable. Sub 9 is definitely possible. I promise I am not hiding speedtech in any other games. SORRY.
(I got a 9:42 before this. Can upload if needed.)
