I have beaten story mode and have unlocked every challenge mode, but whenever I try starting the Sanctuary Time Attack challenge, the story mode sequence with Kazuma trying to contact Sue starts and I begin in a glitchy, mashed version of the Start Point cave and what I assume is the first cave of the challenge.

I tried reinstalling by redownloading it from my Humble Indie Bundle link, but that does not solve the problem. Is there a fix or another source to download the mod from?

Windows 7 64bit.

^{Sounds like just another bug from Nicalis. You should report it to them, hopefully they can fix it soon.}

I like how it won't let me enter text into the Nicalis contact page.

[GIRakaCHEEZER]

Odd, I can enter in a message on the contact page just fine.

MAYBE IT'S A SECRET GAMEMODE?
lol
That would actually be interesting to play..

This is by far the most extreme glitch I have ever seen NICALiS pull off. One thing that I found funny is that if you open up Cave Editor, go to the start point, and replace the tile set with hell, then the room will look exactly like that. Also, if you manage to get through that room without getting yourself stuck, you basically can progress through the game as usual. One thing that's strange though, is that some rooms use the scripts from the Aeon Genesis translation, while others use the new translation. Saving your game in this mode also doesn't work.

Nicalis should've had some professional testers.

You can't blame us for something that was created after the release. For example, the timer for Wind Fortress is borked now, but that did not appear in testing at all (Yeah, really.)

It's not always the tester's fault

It's not always the tester's fault

That's a fair point. But with a glitch like that, along with the Wind Fortress timer glitch, and many more minor ones, it is really worthy of a delay for time to fix those glitches. This makes me think "Wow, I wonder how buggy Cave Story 3D would be if it were released in august, its original scheduled month of release."
