This is a 2008 frame (39.94 second) improvement over my previous movie. It has an in-game time of 16:27 as opposed to 17:06 previously.
Most of the improvements comes from the fact that you can get the Bull Wario upgrade in Level 1 instead of level 5. Thanks to Cabbagefat for pointing this out. I also improved a few other sections throughout the TAS due to some new tricks and better understanding of the game physics. About half of the rooms paste level 5 are copy/pasted from version 1.
Release package including level savestates and frame count spreadsheet: http://sourceforge.net/projects/adelikattasing/files/Releases
Notes:
  • There was a suggestion about waiting before hitting the final boss, so he gets to the bottom of the screen sooner. This turned out to be slower
  • Level 10 has the 1500 frame rule which pretty much nullifies any improvement in the first portion of the level
  • Enemy randomness was of course worse this time around, resulting in about 30 frames lost in level 13.

FractalFusion: Accepting as an improvement to the published run.
