I am going for the following score:
Click here to view the secret text
but I need some serious guidance on what to do.
I can kill the mud mother having these stats after taking the goodies in the room:
HP: 444
ATK: 32
DEF: 20
1 yellow key.

I can take a blue key using a green key, and I left three keys in the first area, along with the pickaxe and some health.
However, no matter what I did, I could not progress in the second half, the monsters deal a lot of damage and I cannot open all of the yellow doors and green doors, some of which are needed.
So, along with some general advices, could you answer me these questions please?

I used the blue key in 1S5E to get the wooden sword as soon as possible, is that correct?

Is it a good trade to spend a yellow key for a defense gem? (e.g. 1S3E and 4N4E).

In 4N4E I tried 2 things, using a blue key and using the pickaxe to open the two yellow doors and allowing me to get two green keys later by not killing the mad eyes, is that a good trade? Using the pickaxe worked for me in the no goblin biter score, but it does not seem to work here.

Finally, which is the best way to get the goblin biter? Using 2 blue keys, using 3 green keys or by killing 2 goblins?

I'm very close but haven't pulled it off yet (never mind, restored to my last save and was able to finish from there!)

Thank you for the hints, I replayed the hold from the beginning following your advices and managed to get the score, despite not optiziming well the second part (could have saved plenty of health).

In my run:
