Selected notes by author:
When I started, I had no idea how long this game is. I know now ― it's very long. :)
Despite the length, this movie is very fast-paced and the game should be varying enough to keep a TAS movie fan interested the whole three quarter hours.
Note: Famtasia plays PAL games at NTSC speed, that is 16.7% too fast. Thus the encode is significantly faster than the movie should actually be.

Kirby's Adventure is a colorful game that's very long for a NES game. Normal gameplay forbids the UFO from being taken from level to level, but using a bug discovered by kirbymuncher, JXQ manages to keep the UFO, and blazes through much of the game using it. The speed with which he defeats midbosses and bosses is often very surprising.
This movie is several minutes faster than the previous unpublished movie by kirbymuncher, and is well over ten minutes faster than the original by Bisqwit.
To see the game completed even faster, see this run, which uses an unusual glitch involving the Stone ability and water to activate the credits early.

Kirby's Adventure is a colorful game that's very long for a NES title. Normal gameplay forbids taking the UFO from level to level, but exploiting a bug discovered by kirbymuncher enables mugg to keep the UFO, allowing him to blaze through much of the TAS using it.
This movie is 30 minutes and 57 seconds faster than the other Kirby run from JXQ by using a new glitch. Read the author's notes for more details.

Kirby's Adventure is a colorful game that's very long for a NES title. However, a bug was discovered which caused unpredictable results (including triggering the credits) upon using the Stone power while entering the water.
This movie saves over five minutes from its predecessor. This is because instead of playing multiple levels to reach a spot for the glitch, a new wall-clipping trick is used in the third room of the very first level.
This movie was also the result of an intense frame war that spawned over a dozen attempts and ultimately resulted in an improvement of over 3 seconds of the initial attempt.

This movie has two YouTube encodes. The primary version has deliberately glitched ending graphics, whereas the second one displays proper graphics. Both versions have identical input except for the last frame.

This TAS of Kirby's Adventure is an improvement of 02:19.65 over JXQ's run.

Kirby's Adventure is a colorful game that's very long for a NES title. However, a bug was discovered which caused unpredictable results (including triggering the credits) upon using the Stone power while entering the water.
This movie saves 9 frames from its predecessor, thanks to better lag reduction due to interrupting movement.
