  • Red Eclipse is a high-speed FPS that focuses on freedom of motion, including such things as double jumps, sliding, and wall running.
    It also features a time trial mode where there are no enemies and you simply race to the end of the course, which is what I'm after here. Purge is among the longest of the official maps, and a lap time of 1:30 is generally pretty competent. I'm not after mere competence, though, but total mastery, and for that it helps to know some things like...some of this level's checkpoints are rather oversized, and by intentionally dying as soon as I hit the best estimate of their edges, it's sometimes possible to not only refill the boost bar, but move slightly forward upon respawning as well, in some cases eliminating the need to jump over obstacles.
    There are a couple failed runs at the start, which only get about 2 seconds in before dying, and then the attempt which would eventually succeed. The starting sprint is definitely the most involved part of this route--becuase of that first checkpoint I might as well use up all my boosts to speed up before getting there, and I end up hitting the jump button a total of 12 times in just that opening straightaway. Making sure you land in the right spot each time, at those speeds, isn't the easiest thing, but fortunately a failure doesn't cost much since you'll just spawn back at start which is right there.
