hope you haven't forgot about the opening the ps1 lid trick, you might be able to use it to stop bosses attacking you or use it if you want to wait for the best possible attack hit luck

can't you avoid the battle on your way out?
why did you jump off the train late? by doing this you have to walk down way more screens
you should try hacking the ram for address which causes the boss fight to repeat itself

there seems to be a few times where you are just avoiding attacks instead of using a counter or attack move yourself, i know this is luck manipulation, but does that mean you tried every type of attack to make sure you had to wait?
also why do you fight reptile more than once? does it save time?

Noob here.
I think voting should be removed, not because of what Warp said. But votes by themselves are useless, if anyone likes or dislikes a movie, they can say so in a post. And the judges can read them.

1. couldn't you have used up all the weapons on the autoscroll levels? So when you finish, you end the game with exactly 0, which would be a nice touch. just a suggestion
2. As the autoscroll levels are so long, I did see a lot of falling off screen glitches, what about the tapping left right combo per frame? (common tas trick) I don't think I saw any of that.
i voted yes, but recommend you do my suggestions if you are thinking of improving it

questions:
when you are jumping over enemies, do you jump the minimum height and kick as soon as possible to save time?
did you use the throwing spikes and other weapons as efficiently as possible? you had 321 at the end, which could've been used on enemies you were just passing or just throwing at max speed for the entertainment of it, if it didn't slow you down anyway
is it faster jump-kicking than just running?
on the surfing level, does the level take less time if u kill enemies faster?
looks quite good

I think there is a nice embryo for a good movie here, but it needs to be polished a lot before it can be published. Motions are not very exact, damage and magic doesn't seem that well planned.
Some things to check:
- Is downstrike really the best attack all the time? The enemies lie down doing nothing for a long time afterwards.
- Can it be done better in 2-player?
- Do all the characters have the same damage?
- yes, downstrike is the best, it takes the most energy in the least amount of time, which is why it is the hardest move to hit enemies with, try doing it yourself normally and you'll see what I mean
- no this is one player mode like the GA1 run
- the only different between characters is magic and weapon attack area, the dwarfs axe has much a larger attack area but this makes is negligible difference when using powerful magic, also the special moves are slightly different
also many parts you think can be polished can't be due to how hit detection works, enemies cannot be hit until they properly standing up or have come into range from off the side of the screen, or the attacks just miss
