Wait, the speed runner save file prevention method only applies to the password generated saves right? Not the normal way with the save statues, correct? There was another user who said he/she timed at 68 minutes (which is what I got with my second run, although that was before this update), so I'm wondering if this is related.

Would you mind people messing about with the save data, or would you find that a bit distasteful? I finished the game this morning (with all items and most achievements apart from Indomitable and Speed Runner, thanks to PB13's excellent guide on Scribd), so it would be fun to godmode a little while I revisit some of the levels I rushed through! :)

I think it's fine to hack for fun. I also can't really prevent it from happening. Just don't hack to get the last medals so that people can have a chance to legitimately earn them :)
