Checkpoint!

Not to be confused with Checkpoint or Czechpoint.

Checkpoint! is a level in a game. The level's intended route involves a Book going through a puzzle on her own to flip the green switch and unlock the next area. Match can't progress until Book enters the next area and flips the switch that blocks her from moving. But importantly, she can still function as a checkpoint for Book so she doesn't have to restart the whole level when she dies; she only needs to go back to the start of the puzzle area she's in. There are four such "areas".

Skips

Switch skip

At... some point in time, Meester Tweester found that it was possible to skip the last two puzzles by picking up Book off the switch after the finishing first two areas. This skip became across all 5b speedruns.

Clip skip

It was found by me that it's also possible to skip the first two puzzles by using a wall clip. When combined with the switch skip, it's possible to skip all the puzzle elements of the level and complete it in under 20 seconds. This is what it looks like when performed.

Trivia

• The person who holds both IL world records in this level is a frequent editor on this wiki, but I won't say who.
