You can force your AI partner to use a specific weapon, but be sure not to spend too much time on that. You can have your partner work the spotlight, but that leaves you with three enemies that can stun-lock you and minimal equipment to deal with them. Optimizing the movement and weapon patterns are key to running this game. Your AI partner's movement and actions are CRITICAL to this run. After a bit of observation, this could work to the advantage of the runner for crucial skips or timesaves. A boss can hit you and knock you down, yet when you get back up and he leaps at you it just clips right through you. The hitboxes and and invulnerability frames for this game are wacky to say the least. The location of said keys and how far behind it puts you will vary for your route. This is a heavy factor that needs to be taken into account during the run since you obtain the Crossbow that fires explosive bolts from the second box that you unlock, meaning that you need six Small Keys to get it. What this means is that you can be at the beginning of the game or at the end, but if you open only one box you will still receive the Stun Gun instead of any other weapon. These boxes count by how many boxes you have opened so far and give you the assigned weapon.
There are multiple boxes in the game that store various weapons in exchange for three Small Keys. Since the above is basically the definition of a speedrun, then we can definitely break and fly through this game. Skip through different cutscenes or pieces of dialogue that would otherwise slow you down. Grab only what you need and skip the rest. Exploit AI movement and patterns to fly through rooms and avoid combat. However, all of this can be exploited with enough practice and experimentation. The AI is bad and can destroy you at the worst of times, the only ammo types that you need can rarely be found except for certain areas, and there are overall many various little bugs and quirks that can really frustrate you at the worst of times. Let me start with this: this game is ridiculous.
