Thanks for the LP! Both the main run and the time trials were a fun watch/listen (depending on if I had it running in the background or not). Here's a question for you about time trials specifically. What's your philosophy when it comes to them? Generally when you get a gold/highest reward is that enough for you, or do you go a few more tries to see if you can do it better? I suppose for me it's the former, ie some months back I played the Crash N. Sane trilogy. When I finished each game I'd then go on to do all the time trials before moving on. At first I tried to platinum every single level, but in the end I believe I moved on with a couple gold medals because 2 levels in the last island got on my nerves. After that basically as soon as I got at least a gold medal (ie the minimum completion % cares about) I moved on. Didn't help that Crash 2 and 3 expect you to always be using this fast movement trick, which they sorta fix in the remasters by adding a post-game run button, but it doesn't give you the same air distance as the trick so you still need to use it a lot.

I lost my ability to really enjoy platformers once I got old and out of practice and my reaction times went in the shitter, so this was really fun to watch somebody kick the poo poo out of a game that would kick the poo poo out of me if I ever tried to play it. Thanks Jay!

Usually once I get a gold time I'm satisfied. The Crash Bandicoot time trials always gave me way too much anxiety for me to really do them. Time Trials in general in platformers are a real love/hate for me depending on the game. Beating a game and then being like "Oh, I guess I have to play all these levels again but good" can be really deflating. I think Rayman Legends had a neat twist on it where Time Trial specific levels were unlocked after beating certain stages, and the time trials were remixes of those stages.

Yeah, Pikuniku also had time-trial specific levels. Funnily enough even though technically they were for co-op play they were easy enough to complete in time solo.
