I will note some more specific stuff about some of the levels and a list of tricks below. I got a 50 52 run with no retries and some really great luck so I was very happy with this and decided to keep it as I thought sub 50min was asking too much with the strats risky enough as they were. That is timing from starting to losing control.

I was initially aiming for sub 1 hour right at the start, but with some neat tricks this quickly went to sub 55min then finally about 50mins (though I thought this was optimistic).

It took weeks of actual attempts to get this but the most time was actually spent at mastering certain levels, some of which are particularly nasty. I aimed for 0 retries and had rough times I wanted to stick to for each level. After a few months I finally started running this. Those guys are real masters at World of Goo with their profiles racking up 400+ hours! Though they are masters at IL runs of various sorts and not single-segment runs meaning I had to come up with a lot of my own strats to make a SS run feasible. It took months of practising levels and it took ages to find the best strategies for each level, I got a lot of information from Kopalexis's, DaftasBrush's and dmanparttwo's youtube channels. This is my 2nd Speedrun and I wanted to do a Single-segment run again though this is definitely most suited to an IL run. I really liked this game and a puzzle game makes a nice change for a run. I decided to do a run of World of Goo at the end of March 2009 after I had finished my Max Payne Speedrun.
