And what an awesome movie it is! It demonstrates as many glitches as possible. Some of the glitches save huge amounts of time, some save just a little time, and some don't save any time at all, but look really cool. You can read more about them at the Rygar Tricks page.

Rygar dies in this run, but contrary to what you would expect, this death warps him forward a couple of levels instead of setting him back. A similar trick can be done in Mega Man 2, but in Rygar, it truly places him in a later level instead of just making it look like that's what happened.

This movie is about 41 seconds faster than the previous version due to discovery of a new glitch! We recommend reading the author's comments for more on this phenomenon.

Note: If you are watching the FCM, don't forget to enable PAL emulation in FCEU! It's under the Config menu.

It uses death as a shortcut, but in contrary to the usual, this death does not put Rygar backwards in the game, but instead warps him forward by a couple of levels.
A somewhat similar trick can be done in Mega Man 2, but in Rygar, it places him truely in the next level instead of just virtually.

Note: This PAL game movie was erroneously recorded at NTSC setting, resulting in 16.7% too fast playback. Thus the movie is significantly faster than it should actually be. The real length is 07:27, that is 25 seconds faster than the previous version.

It's Walker Boh's sixth "warps"-using completion video in the series. Many glitches are used, and some of them save huge amounts of time, while some are just minor and look cool. You can read more about them at the Rygar Tricks page.

This movie makes full use of all the bugs and glitches in the game which can be used to speed up the run, except the death glitch. If you are wondering what the heck is going on in this movie, see the Rygar Tricks page for some info about the tricks used.

The timeunit count for this movie is 03:01:17, which is 4 "hours" better than the previous version, and almost 15 "hours" better than the first released version. The actual movie is now improved by 96 seconds, because of better implementation and a new warp.
It also abuses the falling-through-floor glitch, which is insanely difficult to perform.

There are several items that are required for the completion of the game, and you can't buy them without killing a certain amount of monsters; thus, this movie has some running back and forth in order to collect hearts. There's also the factor that shops are open only at daytime and monsters are twice as evil at nighttime...

It differs from the other movie in that this one plays all levels once instead of using a glitch that leads back to the first level.

Technically, this movie is a manifestation of luck abuse.

The playing of the first 4 levels are identical in both movies.

In this game you're an armor-clad knight with a big sword. You collect gems to bribe a red knight, kill evil beasts and rescue several "distressed damsels".

Walker Boh completes the game shorter than anyone imagined, and discovered a few nice tricks / glitches.
Long live game physics where a little bird can toss heavy metal knights by several meters!

This movie takes advantage of a glitch that allows to re-enter the first map and substitute the last few levels with the first levels. There is also a movie that does not use this trick. It's slightly longer.

The game is a basic platformer but thanks to a certain weapon this movie never gets boring. The arrow gun allows the player to climb up walls and use creative shortcuts to optimize all movements so that the absolute shortest route can be taken. In case you are wondering why the player keeps on jumping so much, it is because landing and not jumping again immediately makes the player stop for a short period of time. With constant jumping these landings can be avoided.

This new 2-player movie is a huge improvement over the previous movie. Walker Boh manages to improve his old movie by over 3 minutes. Most of that time comes from clever death abuse. Watch the movie in order to find out why it's 'clever.'

Selected comments from author:
You are an indian boy who is gonna collect 6 totems (I think). These are very much like Mega Mans weapons because each boss gives you a different weapon for different usage.

It´s a fastpaced and fun game. The controls are a bit slippery if you play it on normal speed and only that makes this movie cool.

I also manipulated luck on the few enemies I kill and those of which I could actually grab the items from without losing speed.

You play as this family who must retrieve four crowns in order to obtain the dragon slayer (a sword) and then kill that evil dragon. Each family member has it's own area in this huge game and they can use different items.

Because of this vastness, the order in which each family member is used is crucial, to prevent any unnecessary backtracking. This run of the game involves no backtracking, lots of shortcuts, and a whole lot of speed scrolls with the help of a little luck manipulation.

The movie is well played, no question, but the game itself is just not that much fun to watch being played, even if it is played perfectly. It's actually quite nice if you play it at 150% or even 200% speed.

Astyanax is a somewhat clumsy game. For one, Astyanax is twice as big as he appears, and so he is easily hit unless one plays carefully. The controls are also very bad. The sum of these factors is that it's a difficult game to play, but that's part of what makes this movie interesting—especially for those who have played this game.

This run is Walker Boh's second attempt at this game. It is more than 3 minutes faster than the first attempt.

It's not a very exciting movie as whole, but due to how hard the character is control, the game is difficult to beat by normal playing. This fact might make the movie a bit more interesting.

This movie is 2.5 minutes faster than the previous version by the same author.

This is really the umpteenth version of the TAS. Fast completion of this game relies heavily on random factors, and thus it has been a lot of work to get the time down from 8 minutes to the 6 minutes we see here.

This movie rescues the o-hime-sama four times, at all the four seasons of year, in just 6:05. Lots of ninja-slaughter follows.

The sound emulation in Famtasia doesn't appear to be perfect in this game, but it's the best I've heard.

For one, the main character is twice as big as he looks, which makes him hit everywhere unless you play carefully. The controls are also very bad.

But these factors sum up to that it's a difficult game to play, and that's what makes this movie interesting - at least for those who have played this game.

This movie aims for fastest time but makes some deviances from that goal to get more points: for example it saves all the swimmers where just saving one would have been slightly faster.

In this one you star as Ace Harding, a detective who wakes up having no idea who or where he is. As the game progresses you discover that you have been framed for a crime you didn't commit, and must find a way to clear your name.

This movie features ultrafast menu navigation, some luck manipulation and generally a very precise walkthrough doing only what is absolutely necessary.

Note: This movie may not look cool, but the player is not to be blamed. The game is a little bad. You have to avoid objects by afar if you don't want to get hit, and you really have to collect $1M to complete the game.

In my opinion Hans has done very good job perfecting this movie.
