Basically, it's a platforming game similar to Dangerous Dave and La-Mulana, except the levels are entirely randomized akin to roguelike games like NetHack. The goal is to reach the last level. There are many items, as well as treasures, to collect, and monsters to kill. There also are shops which you can lift, secrets that you can find, and numerous other awesome things.
Be warned: the game is fun, but brutally hard to finish. So far I'm on my ~270th attempt, and I haven't even caught a glimpse of level 11 yet…I never said most games need to exceed the limit. The point from the beginning was that the ones that do need to exceed the limit should not look bad. Many N64 encodes look bad.
The point was never what was considered complex to encode, it was that games that need it should be given higher bitrate.
In my opinion, we should forget about the 4 MB/min limit, and use the lowest bitrate that will actually look good, instead of striving to barely fit the 4 MB/min limit
and possibly sacrificing things like seekability and compability in the process, just to get a somewhat decent looking (and sounding) video file
Innovative TAS: 1188M Sega CD Sonic the Hedgehog CD in 17:27.64 by Nitsuja - since this was a ground breaker for both being a new platform and for being the first CD game to be successfully TASed.

Lets think outside the box here. How about a fall under very low gravity? Or if you don't touch the ground until after you've fallen 1000m?
Could you survive a fall from 1000m and be completely unharmed afterwards?
