http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/378709062/Putt%20and%20Putter%20%28JUE%29.mmv Is this worth pursuing? Only some levels are there. I might finish later. I play "beginner" and not hidden "master" category because it requires password "PUTT" and password is not ok in guidelines (or I can ask for exception? Master levels are interesting)

I forgot, use dega-1.16pre1-win32-z80jb because Putt & Putter has problems with old core.

In some cases, passwords are accepted. I believe if it's ever finished, the DKC3 100% TAS uses a password for hard difficulty. I believe the new Loderunner GBA TAS uses a password also. It just depends on the game and what the password does.

Nope, it doesn't. However, using a password to unlock harder difficulties can and has been done on the site.

Thanks, for your feedback. I will use password "PUTT", to unlock Master Levels.

I couldn't find a rom with a matching checksum... what is the name of the rom you are using?

Well that explains it, I was trying the SMS version...

I finally watched this... I wanted to see more! I especially liked the holes where you got a hole in one in a surprising way.

I wonder, maybe I should drop the speed goal and make a pure playaround where all the shots are unexpected. But I always have a bad feeling about what people might consider as entertaining and what not. I will think about that. Doing a pure speed goal is tricky as well because of the fireworks. A possible goal would be "minimise number of shots and ignore in-game time wasted for fireworks" otherwise I'd use a shot to place the ball at 1 inch from the hole and then use a second mini shot to get into the hole. Either way I found new motivation about this because level maps are now available on smspower, I just found them while browsing their recent changes: http://www.smspower.org/Maps/PuttAndPutter-GG Any opinions / suggestions about the goal with the highest chance to get yes votes on the workbench? Pure speed, pure entertainment, 50/50?
