Lunar Pool, also known as Lunar Ball in Japan, is a billiards simulation game for the NES. Taking aspects from mini golf, the game has you play billiards on a variety of different-shaped pool tables, The goal in each table is to pocket all the numbered balls by hitting them with the cue ball. There is also a friction setting that determines how fast the ball decelerates as it travels, with a friction setting of 0 making it so that a ball will only slow down if it hits another ball.
eien86 in this run improves on the previous run by 54 seconds thanks to an improved brute force script and better hardware used to find more optimized solutions to each pool table.

eien86 here improves on the previous "frictionless" run by almost 5 minutes thanks to an improved brute force script and better hardware used to find more optimized solutions to each pool table.
