This movie is different from the other Rygar movie in that it plays all levels and doesn't use the death-at-boss-warp glitch.

This movie makes full use of all the bugs and glitches in the game which can be used to speed up the run, except the death glitch. If you are wondering what the heck is going on in this movie, see the Rygar Tricks page for some info about the tricks used.

Note: This PAL game movie was erroneously recorded with the NTSC setting, resulting in 16.7% too fast playback. Thus the AVI is significantly faster than the movie should actually be. The real length is 20:27, that is 40 seconds faster than the previous version.
