The goal of the 16 Star category is to beat the game as quickly as possible using MIPS clipping to skip the 30 star door. Any form of BLJ (or technique other than MIPS clipping) to pass the 30 star door is not allowed. It's a great category for beginners as it is not very long and doesn't involve any tricks that are overly difficult.

Rules

  • Side BLJ is not allowed
  • LBLJ is allowed
  • MIPS Clip is allowed
