AKA, that video was very interesting. Did you do anything to keep repeatedly getting up and down the same step? Or did that happen because you were perfectly aligned with the step angle?
In either case, perhaps this could be done on the small step that is underwater in front of HMC entrance, if you can keep pushing against the wall.

For some reason I didn't like xenotactic...
But I loved desktop TD, I just can't get past the hard level (max stage 42), and some other challenges either..
Also, I liked vector TD: http://www.candystand.com/play.do?id=18047

Amazing post :) Thank you very much.
You described this TAS pretty well. If the viewer knows the game as well as we do, it gets really tense with all the bullet dodging and jumping. I think this TAS has a great rhythm also.
I always try to make TASes of games I like, and I try to make it as nice to watch as I can. I don't care if not everyone will like it, but it's thinking of people like you that I make the videos.
I have evidently thought about making rolling thunder 2 or 3 for genesis in 2 player mode (whichever is simultaneous, I forgot), but that was just a thought.

I haven't tried yet, but I'll do as soon as I finish playing here :)
edit: Ok, they use the glitch on the TAS, on the first level already you can see it.

hummmm okkkk
So I was just playing this game on Wii's Virtual Console, and I'm at stage B-2 climbing those falling stairs with the giant metal wheel trying to catch me, and I came to the 2nd stone golem when I was on the stairs and suddenly Simon zipped to the right (his head was stuck on the floor), and I could just freely control which direction he was zipping to, with acceleration. Then he died. Just for the record, I don't know if the TAS uses any of this, but I felt like posting before I forgot it ever happened. Also, I don't know if it's a VC especific bug or anything.

So far, so good. Impressive.
Not a request, but just for the record, an information pop up could come in handy after picking a movie file, or when creating a movie file, showing the header info in comprehensive format.
The rest is working great so far. I've tested every new feature.

Ok, my first testrun is 13:51 minutes long, here it is:
http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/1658923486/alexkiddmw-foda-testrun1.mmv
warning: for alex kidd enthusiasts only, as a TAS it isn't much impressive yet, I'd just like suggestion on route, or if I missed anything major.
- The whole money issue needs to be thought out. I think I won't really have to get out of the fastest path on each level for money, except on level 1 though....
- That helicopter level where I fly to get money, I'll just fall on the water as fast as possible next time.
- in the blue castle, there's a flame I have to wait, I guess I'll do like the speedrun and buy an invincibility power up... or not, I'll have to test and see if it's worth it.
