Submission Comments
Here is my movie for the Genesis version of Lion King, almost 100 seconds faster than Ouzo's previously submitted one. This game roughly follows the plot of the 16th highest grossing movie worldwide, but if you are watching this 'tool-assisted speedrun' for the story, you will be missing out.
Significant notes:
  • The first four levels are pretty much the same as in Ouzo's movie, only with minor optimizations.
  • I somehow managed to outrun an instant-kill boulder in level 5; you are supposed to be forced to jump over it.
  • I hit the boss of level 6 one more time than you are supposed to, although this has little effect on time gained.
  • I skip two of the three drawn-out hyena kill-fests in level 7. Despite my hardest efforts, I wasn't able to skip the third.
  • Slashing while jumping as adult Simba gives an extra height boost.
  • Yes, the 'boss' of stage 8 is really boring.
  • Scar, the boss of the game, was disposed of much quicker due to a better fighting technique.
Note: This submission is a couple frames longer, because I ended the previous one too early. Sorry about that.

Bisqwit: Processing.
