- Uses death to save time
- Takes damage to save time
- Genre: Platform
Cadash isn't the most straightforward of platformers, seeing how you can actually gain levels and buy items in this one. There are also mandatory items to fetch and quests to complete in order to advance.

This is actually nifboy's third movie of Cadash, and the first one considered worth publishing. This means that the author hasn't just thrown something together, but rather planned and optimized everything carefully.

Note that the author dies twice in the movie. Both deaths were of course intentional and saved time. For details about these deaths as well as things that were skipped, see the submission text.

- Heavy glitch abuse
- Uses hardest difficulty
- Genre: Adventure
- Genre: Platform
Flashback is the sci-fi version of Prince of Persia. There is a lot of jumping, rolling and climbing to move around the levels.

This movie uses a lot of bugs to get ahead faster. The most prominent one is probably walking through walls, which renders keys obsolete. Also, if you finish a level without having some important item, the game assumes you have it anyway.

We recommend the author's comments of this run.

Here we have a Disney game not made by Capcom. Interesting!

In this game, sliding is faster than running. Or, as Nifboy put it: Well, here's an improvement to the Sliding Hell, also known as Quackshot.

This TAS is more than a minute and a half faster than the previous Quackshot run. The improvements consists of more sliding in different places, a slightly better route in the Tiger Castle, and the discovery of some neat bugs. See the author's comments for a full list of improvements.

This movie has similar type of difficulty as Hi No Tori.
