This guide was created to teach new and experienced players the techniques and routes required for achieving all of the elusive Red Aces. With enough practice and determination, you'll be equipped to improve far beyond these times to stake your claim on the global leaderboards.

To set expectations, the routes in this guide were built as a personal challenge to earn every Red Ace without looking any routes up. Although fast and easy to learn, these routes are imperfect, and I hope you use this as motivation for improving them even further!

• Your ghost can help identify time saves/losses in real time. The causes of small, sometimes accidental changes will surprise you!

• Many sections rely on your ability to execute. Develop muscle memory to improve your consistency.
  
• Resist resetting too early — a perfect beginning of a level won’t matter if you don’t know how to play its end.
  
• Check your demon counter after tough sections to confirm nothing was missed.

• This can be as simple as attaining the Ace or Red Ace times for every level. Afterwards when you have an idea of your own ability, you can pick a comparable rival on the leaderboard to beat or pick an approximate leaderboard rank you want to attain.
  
• Decide when good enough is good enough. Remember that having fun is more important than being the best.

• I highly recommend reading the Neon White Tech Document[docs.google.com] written by shovelclaws (and edited by pandorasfox) which explains many essential techniques in detail.
