It's too bad you can't use him on any of the first four stages in a speedrun. You have to exit the level after getting the fourth part to get Beat.

Well, to me it seems like 3 frames, but there may be some confusion over what "this frame" and "the next frame" are for a particular button press. I'm halfway through the initial test run of BrightMan's stage, and it's looking like one big bag of "fight the slowdown" so far. But I did discover the trick to reducing the time Meggermin spends holding his arm out when he's shooting on a ladder: Just press the opposite direction. X| So I think what I'll do after that is basically try 3 more runs of each stage, one for each special weapon to use throughout, and write down the time gains and losses that each one provides. Then I can figure out which weapon combination is optimal for each level and which level order is optimal. For testing the second set, I should probably bring along Beat for good measure, huh? You never know... I've seen him beat mini-bosses in one hit before.

But it has limited continues, so the game is hard if you keep falling down and getting hit. Yeah.

Does it speed up the game to have shorter names for things? Also, isn't there a part in the game where you have to stand still for three minutes?

Actually, there were 3... But doesn't the arcade version have 4?

Yeah, I always thought it was dangerous to put the New Topic button inside the topic, right next to the New Reply button.

In a movie that ends up being over an hour, you need to save all the time you can get! So use gibberish.

Well that's strange, because I remember being able to assign multiple keys to one function before. I think it should give the warning, but still assign the key.

Ooooh. I wonder if this is the only reason that FCEU crashes on me, or if there's something else...

I think this run really should have some glitches, because otherwise it's mostly just running to the right...

This information should go on the Super Mario Brothers tricks page.

Heh, but if it takes you to World 1-2, then that wouldn't save you any time... unless you want to consider it part of an "all levels" run. :)

Yeah, it needs to go more to the left so it doesn't hit me on the next ladder. I also charge up because the bigger shot will hit it sooner.

All right, this should be a pretty good run of RingMan's level without special weapons. It was frustrating to make because many tricks relied on certain events to happen on certain frames, and sometimes they were offset the wrong way if I went back and changed something.

That scene was cool in the original version of Star Wars. There's just this explosion that fills the screen all of a sudden, and for a second, you don't know who just got shot.
