Description
So why faster? Because you should.
This is the second part of the Y-Faster 2 project. It pays hommage to five more past hacks, memorable for good and bad reasons, with my own twists added of course.

Rules:
This hack follows the same ruleset as the previous entry (Y-Faster 2 Fast)
Defeat 5 main bosses in 5 distinct areas then head to the final boss as fast as possible.
Each area can be completed in one run and in any order (no need to go back and forth between areas to progress).
Once the main boss is defeated, you must rush to the next area.
You don't have any time to spare as you usually do in most exploration oriented hacks as you instantly die when the timer reaches zero.
If you exit an area before beating the main boss, you're doing it wrong.
Choose your first area with maximum care. Some areas are more challenging than others. When things gets angry at you in the first few rooms, it MIGHT be a good idea to restart, unless you are up to the challenge.

UwU:
There is another super secret girl hidden somewhere, required to get the best ending.

Beta Testing Team:
Jefe962's seal of approval : this hack absolutely does not contain ants (it does contain spiders however)

Last but not least, this hack was made for veterans Super Metroid players.
Good luck!

This is amazing I don't know what else to say. I'm no speedrunner and the timer is fair. I'll be going back for 100% for sure. Thanks for the incredible hack.

Show me your moves!
This is meta's second Y-Faster 2 hack, in which he takes 5 hacks and mashes them all into one game and somehow makes them work. The hack is done really well like last time, although a bit of a departure from what we saw in Fast. Not sure which one I liked more as they're both incredibly unique. Heavily recommend if you've played some of the hacks here, although I'd only played 3/5 before starting.

Good hack but a version without the timer would be very welcome. I'm good at the game but timer went out at Spo-Spo. Unfortunate since I really wanted to see the ending.

Edit: Since Oats read my review on live stream, raising it one more star since the effort in the hack truly was good. But some puzzles were tight on the timer regardless

Impressive stuff, very good quality on custom music, this is something I enjoy in hacks, It's definitely a must play hack.

Good hack, not so good y-faster hack, it's near impossible for me to beat it because of how much time I waste at the slower areas/puzzles but I appreciate the effort which went into this, 2Fast is better with the timer because most parts of the game are fast-paced, while AFC and SYL drag me down in 2Furious.

I didn't record completion stats because I save scummed... But around 1.5h game time 59%.

Really hated the physics changes in Angry Fyre & one of the puzzles didn't work right for me the first time which caused me to erroneously backtrack.

Game started off tough, too... But one thing it does better than almost any game is allow you to have an "end game" where you can actually use an end game set up for more progression than just the last boss area. Could've been my routing, but the last few areas were an absolute cake walk.

The maze was kind of cool, kind of hated it. Noticed quite a bit of lag in some places, too.

Would recommend and will play again, but I'm looking up a guide or something for that maze... No way would I wanna do that again

To embrace the funny, one shall overcome the first area. And then you relax.

Remember: Cursed Jump is cursed.
