About the game

I have to thank dezbeast for his marvelous Mega Man II TAS. Basically all Stages are similar to his old TAS except from Top Man onwards. Since after we have achieved the "Hard-Knuckle" we are able to twist time and space and screenwrap through ( almost ) every screen we fall. This is done by shooting a Hard-Knuckle on the last frame before the screen transition happens ( you can also screenwrap from a ladder up/downwards - seen in Needle Man stage).
RNG : I have no clue how it really works basically if you do no input ( e.g. Needle Man stage ) you can change the drop the enemy will give you - I tried around a lot, but sometimes I couldn´t get the same outcome as dezbeast ( e.g. Magnet Man big health refill ) and thus I have some downtime in the finished TAS.
This run clocks at : 17:15.9 or 61873 Frames ( 261 Lagframes ) compared to dezbeast: 17:41.2 or 63678 Frames ( 2 Lagframes )

Samsara: Removed branch name. You don't need to put a branch name for any% submissions.
Noxxa: Judging.
Noxxa: Replaced submission file with a 7-frame improvement with truncated ending frames.
Noxxa: A fine improvement, with a nice new glitch to spice up the second half of the run. Accepting to Moons as an improvement to the published run.
