(Previous) Route

The beginning until X-Ray Scope is basically the same as GT categories - Morphing Ball, Bombs, Missiles (one pack), Super Missiles (one pack), Power Bombs (one pack), and one Energy Tank are acquired, and are the only items acquired, before traversing the X-Ray hall and acquiring the X-Ray Scope. Keep in mind that Charge Beam is not required at all for this category.

Upon entering Red Tower, go up and grab the Power Bomb (Alpha) pack. Make sure to farm so that you have full health before the X-Ray hall. Damage boost your way through the room with the help of the Wavers in the room. After getting the X-Ray Scope, you can either wait for the Wavers to appear before you (safe strategy), or you can jump straight out after the fifth fade-in that you can see in the background (faster).

After X-Ray, climb up Red Tower again and get all the way up to the ship. Make sure to fill up on Super Missiles. Get in the Parlor and wait for the Geemer (blue) to get in position, then fire off a Super Missiles and run through the door.

If you're successfully stuck inside the door, perform an X-Ray Climb until you reach the above tile on the map. Morphing Ball can be turned off as it makes the X-Ray Climb a bit safer, but make sure to turn it on after you're done X-Ray Climbing.

Notes

The Out of Bounds section can be filled with bad blocks if you reset.
