Notes:
- This is by far the hardest stage in the game to not lose time to.
- Croctopus Chase is all about building up momentum as you maneuver around the corners, while trying to cut past each corner as early as possible.
- Mashing B quickly while swimming upwards also has a fairly dramatic affect on how fast your stage is, since this adds up throughout the stage.
- For sections where you hug a wall before moving towards a corner, it's recommended to create visual cues along the wall for when to being moving left or right to ensure that you never bonk.
- There is a specific spot where you want to bonk the ceiling at 1:11 that allows you to descend right past the next corner. Careful though, if you try to bonk the ceiling a bit too late, you'll end up bonking much higher, since the ceiling is uneven.
- It is easy to lose 2-5 seconds over optimal, even when you learn the path. Practice enough to not take wrong turns and actively try to cut corners as well as you can during runs, and you'll improve over time.
- A solid Croctopus Chase is one that's fast enough to beat the pianos from playing at the end of the stage ("Pianoless), while a really solid one will end before the bass kicks in before that ("Bassless"). You can even get a Croctopus Chase that's a whole second faster than Bassless, so keep at it!
