NOTE: Most of this text was pasted from my G-Force submission, because that TAS is very similar to this.
About the Game(s):
Action 52 is an unlicensed game made for the NES and Sega Genesis, featuring - you guessed it - 52 different video games. The NES port was published in 1991, whereas the Genesis port was published in 1993. Both versions were published by Active Enterprises.
Rocket Jockey is game 26/52 in the NES port of Action 52. You play as a cowboy on a rocket who has to make it through 2 levels, dodging and shooting everything in your way...
About the TAS:
...except this TAS does something completely different. The physics are actually okay, but that doesn't mean this game's not terrible, as is with all the other Action 52 games.
Each level takes around 30-35 seconds to complete.
Level 1
After starting the game on frame 965, we immediately head near the bottom right corner and avoid all the enemies in the way.
Level 2
After starting this level as soon as possible, all we have to do is press down for 7 frames, the last of which is 3046. After that, we can continue without any more input needed and win the game.
Thanks for reading.

nymx: Claiming for judging.

nymx: Very simple game with a clear ending. Two levels and it repeats back to Level 1. The only part that I can see that grabbed my attention was the idea of ending input very, very early. Good job.
Accepting to "Standard" for publication.

despoa: Processing...
