On the other hand, given how glitchy this game has been revealed to be, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a way for Forte/Bass to retrieve those buried CDs.
Like catching 152 pokemon in under two minutes, that sort of glitchiness.
It's a vertical (top-down) shooter, correct?
And as you noted, the only real places to save time are at the boss fights, as the stages themselves are (likely to be) autoscrollers.
Do you have secondary goals?
Such as 100% kills? Or "pacifist" mode (kill only the bosses, no minor enemies, if possible)?
I haven't watched your submission yet, but getting a TAS of a shooter published will require more than speedy completion. Does this particular game stand out as being innovative among shooters?
I feel kind of confused everytime I see your current run under "Popular Movies", because I always expect to see nitsuja's name there instead, you know, since your run obsoleted his.
That, and his tag "nitsuja" just seems to be more related to the game at hand.
It might be good to obtain HyperBomb even if DelayMagnetBeamAdapter is impossible.
If it doesn't take time to a DelayStageClear of RockBuster too much, we might be able to save the time in Battle of ElecMan.
How much damage does ElecMan take from Hyper Bomb?
I assume at least 2 damage, since Buster does just 1 damage.
Actually, I think they're different players.
Also, I bet when CAVE sees that video, yet another iteration of DDP will come out, since CAVE can't stand to see their HIBACHI boss get owned like that.
I'm guessing a decrease in invincibility time, and a longer time to charge the hyper gauge.
And more bullets.
That's pretty neat.
I wonder is there's a similar process for using X in X7's intro stage. (Of course, X6 is a PS1 game and X7 is a PS2 game, so I don't expect to see this anytime soon.)
The new Rockman TAS is pretty damn broken.
Skipping every boss refight, several stages (almost) entirely, glitching the graphics to hell and back and to hell once more, even screwing with the sound at some point, etc.

I'm also fairly certain these spots shouldn't be in the game.
Comparison to the Forte run.
