Anyone able to beat this in 30min or less yet?

Been trying to get the last achievement. 30 minutes or less. Not sure how to get it done. Best so far is about 50 min.

I just did. 27min. There's another threat, "The Fastest Achievement" with people detailing how they did it.

It took me a few tries, but it's doable. You want to ignore any treasures on the way down except for the very first one which is within arms reach of you assuming you start digging from the X. Other than that don't do anything except dig straight down and buy upgrades. Once you start seeing gold, buy a few sticks of dynamite so you don't have to navigate around rocks. Once you have the shovel/drill upgraded all the way, don't do anything except dig. Don't even turn around to sell your stuff, not even if it means you die since you can just jump back in the hole.

You might need 4 or 5 lamps total when you find open areas just so you can grab all of the visible valuables you can see and also so you don't lose track of your way out.

I'm going to be doing some attempts today. Pray for me. I'm sure by now there is whole guides making it super easy/efficient, but want to give it a few runs without them to see if i can pull it off.
I already have a pretty solid general idea of how to optimize it especially since it doesn't seem things change location. At least not the treasures.

Speedrunners have been doing pretty quick times, last glitchless one I watched was 13:39
