About the Run

This was a long(ish) project turned short. At first I was unaware of glitching into walls, after having found it, I spent a good 2 hours trying to glitch through the first wall you see me jump through. No matter what I did, it was just not going to happen. The game allows some walls to push you out the other side super mario style. However the other walls automatically push you out the side you came in. This wall was the latter. The majority of rerecords were spent traveling through the first level to save wednesday. Then I learned of another glitch. While being pushed out a wall that was going to save me a good 5-6 seconds, I found I could glitch all over the place by pressing down while passing through. This turned out to be mostly useless. However, doing this you can make some random blocks appear and some blocks disappear. All this is doable in real time mind you, just takes quick fingers.

After learning of this new development, I went back to that first wall, the one wall keeping me from skipping about 4/5ths of the game. I worked on it for another 2 hours to no avail. While working again on the first level, I noticed another Super mario style glitch where if Gomez hit the wall at the right height/speed he would bounce back a little and then move towards the wall again. Using this I was able to combine these 2 glitches into passing that forsaken wall. This however, is not doable in real time. Also, it is important to note that this glitch is only doable from the left side. You can not perform this glitch from the right side.

After that the rest of the run was a piece of cake. A little help from Rydain Darkstar's guide on GameFaqs helped a lot until I finally figured out how to pass through that door. But it is a really good guide and he has also posted a map as well.

adelikat: Good game for tasing, nice movie, and good voter response. Accepting for publication.

[Shingen]

This uses Snes9X 1.51, for the record.

[Phil]

Nice run with nice graphics and sound.

[laughing_gas]

Bland, but short. Giving this a yes.

Negotiation is irrelevant. Self-determination is irrelevant. You will be assimilated.

[Twisted Eye]

I liked it. Nice glitch to cut the run down drastically, speedy play through the rest. Unremarkable, but short, sweet, and not unpleasant.

[AngerFist]

I liked how fast you went when you bounced on enemies. Nice, short and fast paced run. Voted yes.

[Maximus]

Good enough for a yes vote from me. If it wasn't so short, it might get a bit boring, but you managed to keep the action moving pretty quickly so no complaints.

[Tombad]

Even though majority of the game was slashed away, I think the remainder (which is hopefully the hardest part of the game) shows enough of the general gameplay for this game. Being so short, it doesn't get boring and as others have said, the graphics & music are not unpleasant but nothing spectacular either. Though those chains that are on the foreground on some levels severely distracted me.

Yes.

[IronSlayer]

As someone who has played and enjoyed this game, I was amazed at how quickly you got through those caverns, making it look almost Marioesque, a very difficult task with that stage.

Easy yes vote.

[Blaise]

Wow they made games out of anything back then. Yes vote for the fast paced platforming.

[Comicalflop]

quick and fast. bounce, slash, bounce, pop, win.

Nicely done, short and sweet. Voted yes

[Soulrivers]

That is quite possible one of the worst games I've ever seen. I thank you for completely destroying it. Yes vote.

[Nemo2342]

That was pretty fun to watch. It probably would have been boring if it had gone on longer though, so good job. Yes vote.

[Viewer]

Watched the AVI, liked it. Yes.

(I think an "all secret rooms" would be a good watch too, what do you think?)

[mushroom]

They really put no effort into setting variation.

A terrible game demolished. Ys voot.

[Chamale]

I vote yes, mainly for the bouncing off enemies in big comboes.

[moozooh]

The run is fast paced and ends before it even has a chance of becoming boring. That's a yes.
