NOTE: You may notice that it looks like I started the timer too early. My HD PVR 2 was out of sync with the timer. When I started the stream, the footage was 2 seconds behind the timer, so I tried to compensate for that by starting the timer and splitting 2 seconds later than normal, but I didn't realize the delay wasn't always the same. It shortly increased to around 3 seconds since the capture card footage froze around 18 seconds into the video, then it started playing in lower pitch and even dropped a small amount of footage shortly after finishing floor 1. Unfortunately, I couldn't find a way to fix this. Even dropping the quality on the capture card and OBS didn't fix the lag. This is one reason why I haven't done any more runs, since I don't want my next run to have the same technical issues as this one.

But that wasn't the only problem, I also forgot to split when warping to Dark Heaven Castle, so I ended up splitting late at the end. Re-timing showed the run was 21:51 long.

Timer starts when "Start" is pressed, stops the first frame ending text is on screen.

Anyways, A WHOPPING 20 MINUTE IMPROVEMENT! Found a new major skip glitch that allows you to warp to Dark Heaven Castle's check-in counter by unequipping thousands of powerup powders. Now Hag's House RNG isn't needed anymore! A Bit sloppy with the glitch menu since I'm not used to the PS4 controller yet, but this was a very good run! Even got Sub 20 game time! I'll need to have all of Gaffer's parts by the end of floor 3 now to have a chance at sub 20 real time.
