So I decided to stay off Crash Bandicoot Huge Adventure for a bit (no spoilers I'm doing 100%), to do a side-project sadly the emulator didn't work so I found the handheld version and completely different to the Playstation version I'm writing about The Emperor's New Groove. I should also mention this tas was done 100% Blind as I never touched the Gameboy version in my life OK to be exact if you're going What the hell why did you do it like this I actually went over the level to see what is happening.

Story Line

Much like the movie Kuzco the young prince has been given a potion by Yzma and been transformed into a llama. Pacha a noble man who lives literately on the other hill decides to help reverse the spells of Kuzco as he was told that he "Kidnapped" Kuzco and turned HIM into a llama. Ok enough of the actual movie story line I don't want to spoil it to the ones who actually never seen the film and are willing to see it :D

What I used

  • Emulator used: vba-v24m-svn-r422

Main Goals and What I needed to do

  • Finish as fast as I can
  • Damage abuse when needed
  • KEEP THAT ONE HEART BEATING IF THAT'S ONLY LEFT
  • Keep on running (When I can)
  • Control the Jumps (When possible)
  • Entertain
