Tool-assisted movies

Air 2 (and Air) is a trial-and-error action puzzle game. Savestates are practically required to beat the game. Abuse of Super Mario Bros. glitches is required.

This run does not aim for fastest completion.

This movie involves using a warping cheat code ― holding A+B on first controller then hitting A on second.

• Mario can keep a power-up in reserve, similar to how Super Mario World works except the change is immediately effective.
• There is a new power-up, Magic Mario, which can stomp on more enemies than otherwise possible, shoots extremely powerful projectiles, and can take a few hits before losing the power-up.
• There are 7 worlds which Mario can visit in any order. Each world has a key hidden somewhere within it.
• After finding all 7 keys and beating the 7 worlds, Mario can access the 8th world to win the game.
• Almost all levels end with a Boom-Boom battle.
• Mario Adventure includes its own custom palette for graphics rendering.

While driving home the point in honour of our other multi-game movie, Baxter and AngerFist prove that Capcom really has been making the same game over and over again by playing Mega Man 3, 4, 5 and 6 using the same input.

No attempt is made to synchronize the endings of these games. Mega Man 6 finishes first and Mega Man 4 finishes last.

The CPU demands for playback of this movie are unusually high. Systems under 1.2 GHz may struggle to play this video. The audio has been processed by adelikat for virtual surround sound.

We recommend sitting back as far as possible and looking (staring?) at the center of the screen when watching the AVI.

This movie aims to defeat 4 CPU controlled players in as little time as possible. Luck is manipulated for the 1:08 and then the controller is released, allowing the game to take its course.

This is a sidestroller, speedwalk, or whatever you want to call it.

This is 1.2 seconds faster than the previous movie by Bisqwit.

There is more than just an appearance change to this game. Knuckles' abilities remain intact. If you haven't seen Sonic the Hedgehog completed before, you may wish to do so before seeing what a character with a spindash and gliding can accomplish.

However, this movie is different, because it starts from New Game +, which means that the equipment and character stats are preserved from a previous game completion. This run uses a save file which is specifically optimized for an optimal New Game + completion of the game; thus this run should be considered more as a concept demo than as a rule-conforming TAS.

This beats the game with perfect characters and best equipment in a very short time. The actual time from power-on until the death of the last boss is only about 7 minutes, but the ending demo does not start until the Dream Team scene (part of the ending) is completed.

The micro gate in the right-side teleporter is only available in New Game +.

In this 22.71-second improvement to the previous version, menu screens are entered in screen transitions to save time. Other improvements were also found.

This movie uses the Fire Stingray to surpass the world record time and best lap time on Mute City 1, the first stage.

• Best Lap: 23"17
• Total: 1'58"17

This movie is essentially constructed by taking one controller and wiring it into two SNES emulators at once. The same input is used to play both games to completion.

In other words, the player plays two games simultaneously with one controller.

There is a visual anomaly during the battle with Serges in X 2. This is an emulator bug relating to the Cx4 chip used in the Mega Man X 2 cartridge.

This movie is a whopping 24 second improvement to the previous movie. Full list of changes can be read in the authors' comments.

Features of Super Demo World include:

• Ability to store more unconventional items in the reserve box, such as a koopa, springboard, message box, or vine
• 120 exits in total, including two secret worlds
• Creative and challenging level design, with some puzzle elements thrown in
• "New" graphics (mostly backgrounds taken from other games, such as Donkey Kong Country 3 and Mega Man X)

This run, which completes all 120 of the game's exits, is nearly 4 and a half minutes faster than the previous version.

Mario plays through all 8 worlds in a fashion similar to a warpless run.

Selected notes from the author:
It is not a complete walktrough but single track only. It is for competition purpose. The track is: Bordeaux/France as fast as possible and the total timeunits is 3'24"76.
