Trivia

• You start every seed with 50 points
• CWJ is the only way points are obtainable in landing site
• Plasma Spark's achievement was replaced with CWJ after being deemed too difficult in later versions of arcade
• The achievement "Impressive" has never been publicly found
• Rooms with only a major item, that isn't timed, will only appear once
• In Elevator rooms, enemies do not award points to prevent infinite point gathering. With the exception of the bug stated below, and Morph Ball Room, there are no achievements in elevator rooms either for the same reason

Currently Known Bugs

• "CWJ" is slightly bugged and will grant you the achievement with a well timed wall jump with a lot of speed
• Entering through the top right door of Fast Pillars Setup Room will not spawn a grey door behind you, instead the grey door will lock the bottom right door for unknown reasons.
