I've tried always run with both mouse and the keys and have never managed to get past the third light before the girls catch me. They are so fast and can just make a straight line to you while you have to keep going up or down or having to pause to let a moving light pass you. If they got "caught" by the lights and had to pause you could at least lure them into some traps to buy time, but currently I don't think its possible to acheive without failing 50+ times to memorize the pattern of each of the lights and the restart and load time makes that pointless.

I was able to do it after a lot of trial and error with little issues. Once I got the hang of the movement, it became quite easy.
That said, I agree, the segment should honestly be entirely scrapped in lieu of something else imo. Even getting the hang of it and able to replicate success didn't make me feel good for accomplishing it. Just relief it was over. Though I'm biased against RPGM admittedly, I hate it with every fiber of my being lol.
My point: Even someone who eventually found it easy dislikes it.
Though I guess the response to that is: Then replace the switch thingy and avoid it. To which, okay, fair enough lol. Still felt it worth voicing my feedback.

That sounds like a bug altogether. I never had any experience like that. Difficulty not accidentally running into the lights, sure, but definitely nothing where there felt like a risk of getting caught for any reason other than spending too long trying to time when I go across the lights. I wonder if the issue is that something's causing them to start to move too early, or you're somehow starting the event too close to them? I probably have a save right before that, I'll check what happens when I do things different ways.
Edit: Hmm... That's strange. I went through the segment again and the first time I got that scene, I'm pretty sure they waited a moment before starting the chase. But every subsequent time I did it, they started way too early. One time I got caught even though I was already holding down the right arrow key before closing the text box. I'm not sure what changed.

I'm surprised you had so many problems at that point, I honestly thought it was relatively easy to get over. You have to learn the pattern of the lights, but using the button to run will make you faster than the two girls

One big issue during learning the section is that there's a light extremely close to the Player that is incredibly easy to hit, and the dialogue end (that opens up to the chase beginning) isn't 100% clear that it's coming up. This delay in starting, alongside the strong possibility of hitting the first light due to panic, leads to getting caught by the girls right off the bat being incredibly easy. That was my experience, at least, and it sounds similar to what other players are experiencing.
Nah, there are some times where they catch you before it's literally even possible to move, long before the question of hitting a light or even making a turn is possible. And some times when they don't. I was literally holding the arrow key while I ended the text and still got caught one time. I think there's something affecting when they start moving in relation to the character, and I'm not sure what. The best course of action might just be to start them significantly farther away from the player.
Seems there's a news post, but it's Patrons-only. Anyone able to share the info? I was just about to ask if there was any new information about how the game is coming along.

In short, "The work is progressing well, albeit slowly, and we are close to the release of the new update".
I have almost finished making all the images of the new update, after which there will be a final test of everything before the actual release.
