I liked the last boss fight (it showed much more variety than the other boss fights) and Victar's speed. It really justifies the fact that it's a speedrun. Yes vote. EDIT: Oh, and the fact that his sword is growing with each level is really funny!

That 1:21 run was so incredibly… incredible! O_O For most of the time, I couldn't even decipher the runner's actions. This run, despite of its short length, is surely being one of my favorites now!

What Vidar said. However it may mess up the statistics a little, as Bisqwit's software is keeping track of them: [1], [2]. But I'm sure it can be settled without much hassle.

Actually, there are many games that are interesting to play, but not interesting to watch, and vice versa. This is absolutely normal. :)

Heh, very impressive dodging. I'm inclined to vote yes on what I've seen so far.

No boss rematches at all? That sounds perfect!
Indeed. I think they're boring.

Oddity: There's only one way to start running as fast as you can: hold down the dash button and run. Arm-pumping doesn't increase your running speed, it just additionally shifts your position forward by one pixel or so with every pump; short charge techs, in their turn, are used to run slower than usual (and therefore, to travel a shorter distance before the SB charges up for a jump), and as a result, you only press dash on the four frames needed to charge. You can only hope to travel the desired distance faster if you're already running (or at least you're in the process of the running animation; which is the key of the shortest charge) at the beginning of it (that's especially useful in the case with Ceres's stupid automatic doors).

Though I've found it hard to fully enjoy the movie itself, I enjoy the concept. And I like how the actual game continues for so long after the input being stopped. Masterfully done! And of course it is a yes vote.

If making both 1p and 2p runs, they should differ in some way, I think. If not, the one that is better (faster) should obsolete the other(s).

At least two of them should be merged.

Other than one track of F-Zero, I don't expect that this style of racer has any representation here.
What about RR 1?

So should I make a new one? In this case I should find and use some new tactics.
Well, if you can incorporate all the known tactics to make it better, then by all means, do it! I'm eagerly awaiting such a run and I think it will have a pretty decent rating if done right.

So I have to plan it more carefully.
Indeed. The best thing would be to gather all the useful info from other players and their works and see what you could do with it.

Question of entertaiment: Should I make some attacks before getting grave keeper to make it less boring?
Probably. Just make sure you won't get an additional level up before the Creaking Skull fight.

Then... can I hope for some help? :)
The right people to ask would probably be Atma, pirate_sephiroth and Zurreco (as all of them were engaged in making AoS runs at some point). A good way to reach them is the IRC channel (#nesvideos at irc.freenode.net). Good luck on your run.

Sylvester Stallone would be proud of this game....... not! Killing wasps and baboons and that guy taking a dump, and… what's that big face doing there? Decent run, poor game choice — yet again. Voting meh. Though the music was kinda neat.

I know some other mistakes I made (i.e. using spear against arachne after beating great armor), but I think it's still ok. Or so I hope :)
Probably so. But it is advisable to correct the mistakes so you could introduce a movie that is better in both technical and entertainment aspects. Or else you may encounter problems submitting it, cause there are so many spots for improvement (with not using pirate's travelling technique probably being the main of them). Besides, nobody's rushing you to complete the run, so you may take all the time you need.

But is ist allowed to use a rotten beaf in a no-damage-run? It reduces my HP and then I could use the Lubicant soul to beat the last three bosses faster.
I think it is allowed. Though I don't know if it's a good idea not to take damage (though it may be, as pirate_sephiroth's runs do that anyway; the point here is to make your run look different). Now, time for the criticism. :) 1. After taking Gravekeeper soul, you move not in the fastest way. 2. Somewhere around frame 28000, I think it would be more advisable to jump on a platform (instead of swimming under it) at the first frame possible, take a boost there and only then proceed into the next room. 3. You waste a lot of frames killing the second werewolf around frame 31500, as you won't gain a new level before Death, anyway.

Oh no, please, not rapidshare! We have a specialised hosting place for emulator movie files, here: http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php. I'd watch but I can't access your movie yet.

Also Bablo doens't mean money in Russian, as a native russian speaker. Dengi is money, Ruble is dollar, Kopeki is pennies or change, Bobki is kinda slang for money like saying cash thats kinda close.
Depends on the "depth" of the slang, actually. "Bablo" is a derivative from "babki", and pretty much all the other "common" slang words have at least one or more derivatives, it's just too inconvenient to transcribe or transliterate them here.
