Untitled Goose Game - Any% Speedrun [8:27]

EDIT: Been real busy with the tail end of GDQx and AGDQ submissions & registration to where I haven't gotten a decent chance to update the description for this video to reflect recent times. There are way too many comments to reply to all of them, so I'll add an FAQ here addressing some of the more common comments I've seen.

Q1: "This run is invalid because you used glitches, why do you think this run is valid?"
A1: This run is valid because glitches are universally allowed for speedruns as long as you aren't using outside sources to alter the game code. There exists a glitchless category for this game which bans the use of prop flying, clips, and various abuses of the game geometry. I might run that category eventually since it looks fun too!

Q2: "You didn't do all the tasks on the list, which should mean this isn't an any% run, right?"
A2: Any% has always meant that you complete "any amount of the game" necessary to reach the end as fast as possible. The category that corresponds to completing all the objectives in the game is the 100% category, although this game also has an "All Main Tasks" category now!

Q3: "Did you know about *insert some new trick/clip/ect or trick from another run or the DeSinc video*?
A3: Yes, I do. Most of these mentioned tricks were found very shortly after I posted this run 2 days after the game came out. I found prop flying literally on my casual playthrough on release day and was the first to find a skip for areas 1 and 2 (this video uses prop flying to skip areas 1, 2, and 3, which afaik was first found by a runner named Emily). This also leads nicely into the next question...

Q4: "Hey your time got beaten, it's now a 3:XX/2:XX, are you aware?"
A4: Yep, it happened shortly after I posted my run in fact! I just haven't gotten a good chance to update the description accordingly for this video until now, since all my recent GDQ related activity has finally calmed down. As of the time I posted this video, this was the WR, but the current record as of my writing this FAQ, the record has been lowered to a 2:24 by a runner named yisk. To check what the current records are as of your reading of this, check out this page: https://www.speedrun.com/goose

Q5: "I'm pretty sure the time you listed is wrong? It should be 8:45/10:42/ect"
A5: Timing for this game starts the moment you first press Y to honk, and ends the frame the bell hits the ground. By that timing scheme, this ends up being a very low 8:27.

Q6: "Why didn't you put the rake in the lake?"
A6: ???

Alright, that should cover everything I can think of right now, I'll probably add more stuff to this as I think of it. I'll leave the original description for this video below this line for posterity.

--------------------------------------------

Despite technically being a world record, the optimization of this route is in constant flux due to how this game literally just came out, so expect this to be obsoleted very, very soon with a route change or persistence with attempts from me or other runners.

That being said, this game is hilarious and I love it. Expect to see more of these in the coming weeks. Hopefully someone will be able to find a way to break into that gate that leads to the end, but a really powerful invisible wall is making it difficult to find a clip. Anyways, enjoy!
