GCN All Fused Shadows

---

This route is about 52s faster than the previous route but requires elevator escape, which is frame perfect but only costs around 8s to retry.

Start with all three files blank, as each will be used during the run.

It is helpful to watch a top run on the leaderboard for reference when learning, as this route document can only go into so much detail.
