The run might be improvable. Wonder how much though. I thought I crunched it pretty good back then. Perhaps I could improve it by a couple of seconds. But I wonder if it would be worth to do it anyways. Atleast it would not be worth it right now since people doesn't find the game entertaining enough it seems. I would perhaps try to crunch it further if I see that this game get's more attention than it currently gets. But I don't think it's realistic. I like to compete against my own times. But in this case I would first want to see the run published because otherwise it would mean a waste of time. This is because I want to prove my self somehow. Sure I could crunch the game. But since it's not likley to draw attention to it I will not do it until I see it's published to get it's fair ammount of attention. Other games however are more likley to be improved before publishing. All I say is that I get allot more motivation and trying to beat my own times if I see that the game I play is liked among the users here. If you like to see improved versions, vote yes! :D That would help me alot. I don't think that this is a rough version that is not publishable. I think that this run is great when it comes to controlling the game. And as I earlier stated, the game it self is poorly made and speaks alot against SUPERMAN, which doesn't feel very super at all in this game. I was very disapointed as a kid when I bought the game when I realised that superman coulden't stand against punches etc. Perhaps every enemy in that game uses cryptonite? =) Anyways.. The submissions is always in the hands of the beholder right? So no matter the decicion made here, I will not feel sorry for it. It's just a guideline to what people likes and not. Personally I like old genesis games. :) Thanks for the comments. It's always good with critiques. :)

I stumbled uppon this searching for games on the internet. It discribes how to make a cable between PC and Genesis so that you can send inputs to the machine! :D It also features macros etc. So now we can start seeing TAS:es on the real hardware! :D http://segacon.hacking-cult.org/

Well played. Allthough I frame-skipped most of the movie. I found some hillarious things you did. Made me laugh. :) Keep it up!

Just watched the avi-file. Damn it was nice! :D Keep up the work. Hmm... The 100-coin thing in Bob-omb battlefield didn't look optimal though. But perhaps I'm wrong?

Have you tried diffrent things at diffrent frames to see if you can manipulate it away? Perhaps it helps to grab the morph-ball 1 frame later?

Hahaha!! I love this game. I keep wondering why they built a platform for the black knight that could be loosen by pulling leavers though? =D Wonderful moving way you invented. :) Cheers. A definite YES-vote.

Are you implying that he looks like the afro americans found in old Tin-tin books? For your information that is because he has a gimp hood! :D There is no racism in that. He's just drunk and kinky.

This game appeared in my mind as I went to work today. I think this game would allow two types of runs. One full run without warps, and one run with warps. Thing is that this game probably would be boring. So one could add up alot of other goals probably. Best score and best combo. Any one willing to pick up the challange? I know that I won't. But I would gladly watch a couple of runs of this game.

Non that I can think of for now. It seems to be fairly popular. More than I expected really. I seem to have some kind of fetish for poor games. :D Oh! Here is some funny thing that one could check out: There seems to be a graphical glitch between levels. When the newspaper shows up etc. If you go frame by frame the newspaper will turn into a bunch of numbers and colors. :D Not useful for anything that I know though. Still a funny graphical glitch. :)

First off. I don't recon this game being an auto-scroller. There are some alternative way in the second level. Meaning that you can go in another direction etc and free more people. Not that I know if it will do any good. No I have not tested any L+R glitches, since that wasn't invented as the time being. I started to play this game before frame advance was invented. Hmm... I think I redid some parts with frame advance however. Can't remember since it's been so long time. :) Perhaps it is improvable. And sure there might be funnier way to do things. But this run was built for pure speed more or less as I wanted to see how fast this game was doable. I have very fond memories of this game as well, and I did it most because of my own satisfaction. I just hoped that someone else would like it as well. Very strange that I mostly end up with games that no one have hardly heard of, and not even played. :D It would be fun to see this movie published even though I want to make a new version to see what I can do now days. But it ain't going to happend this year probably. :( So I suppose it's up to the judges. If this run is good enough for publication, you should do that instead of wait for my new version, as that will take a LONG time before that happends. I currently have too many projects anyways. :) Cheers!

Well done! I just watched it. However... Coulden't it be improved at some points as you have more health than needed? I think you collect some extra health in a level and doesn't waste it again. Haven't read all the replies so perhaps someone already mentioned it? Indeed a yes-vote though!

Just watched this. I don't know wether it was good or bad. I didn't understand a thing that was happening. :D Perhaps a longer run should take place as well? Without the warp glitch... I admit that this game was fast played. But for me it wasn't that entertaining. I would give this run a yes-vote though because it was fast. But from watching this it didn't enlighten me at all I'm affraid. :) Good work though! ;)
