Specifically it's the definition used in https://www.speedrun.com/oot?h=Glitchless-Any&rules=category&x=zd35jnkn-7890o58w.xqk98nd1 It's arbitrary in so much as it has a list of what is and is not a glitch, but after that all consequences logically follow. If you can do something without using a 'glitch', it is legal.

Seeing this TAS reminded me that I have a memory of playing Duke Nukem I long ago, and exiting a door into the top left corner of a corrupted map. But given computers are inscrutable, it probably happened because of some specific corruption or hardware error on my setup and there'd be no way to reproduce it. It's way too long ago and I don't have any idea what you'd do to try to reproduce it anyway.

What caused the computer to attempt Ka5, if it is known? Did it happen without trying or did you manipulate or force it somehow?

Oh, I was thinking "Chest" would be too repetitive due to the need to grind out the unlocks, but if you think it'll be interesting I'm curious.

Excellent TAS-only destruction of this game. Would you consider TASing "Platnium God, Chest" too?

Wow you weren't kidding, that boomerang boss kill is extremely cool.

What a wonderful game to receive such a labour of love. Great work.

There are also more and harder enemies, and shorter level timers (though those should be pretty negligible in a TAS)

I wonder how hard it would be to patch Mario 4 to make the boss fight accessible.

Bootstrap paradox? - We can become the reason why it's a well known hack.

Nice, I was hoping to see this improvement done once I heard about the Chauncey 1-cycle! The PAL alternate route is fascinating, too.

A few questions about category choice: It looks like there are three difficulty levels and 5 missions. Are any of the other possible choices interesting or is this the best it gets? It looks like there's an opportunity to get a better ending, judging by the 2 rescuers that die and the bad ending in the final results screen. Is it possible, and is it interesting?

There exist some games for the PC that are playable by blind people, and thus only use audio as output (or text a screen reader can read). For example: https://www.reddit.com/r/roguelikes/comments/4zjg48/broguespeak/ http://www.blind-games.com/entombed.aspx https://coolblindtech.com/out-of-sight-games-fantasy-rpg-for-blind-and-sighted-gamers/ https://www.fallingsquirrel.com/the-vale So it might work to say 'A video game emits sensory data in linear fashion over time in response to the player's input' or something

The epitome of the lazy TAS. Presses 19 buttons, kills the boss, puts the controller down, immediately crashes, refuses to elaborate. Entertaining in its minimalism.

The Sticky movement is hilarious. Late content for speedy TAS of the year! What happened at 1:09 where you transition left and end up on the left side of a room, pick up a powerup then leave instantly?

Nostalgia~ I'd love to see TASes of all the other Humongous Entertainment games too!

One question: If you optimized for this game's buggy implementation of the... 'Yathzee' rules instead of the normal Yahtzee rules, could you get a higher score, or are the two strategies the same?

'Usually, you are restricted to the game window pull the launcher band down to launch the hedgehog, but with the libTAS input editor, you can set it to any coordinate value. In this case, I set the value up to the max mouse y value of 99999999 and lowest x mouse value of -99999999 (don't know if that's exactly how many nines there are but basically there's a lot of nines).' I think this is worth discussing - is it possible to do this RTA? Is it a valid kind of 'input'? I know that with consoles we allow things like U+D, 30Hz mashing, the unused 15th and 16th button on the SNES controller, etc. because the console will physically accept these and it's possible to craft or use a peripheral that will send these signals. But in the context of a video game running on a computer, the context is less clear - is it a valid input if the computer can send it to the game, or does there need to be a way for hardware to send the input to the computer that the computer would pass on first?

LMAO. That is a cursed final move. Might be r/AnarchyChess material.
