For Encoders

This game has ramdomness. So if you have some desync,there is a savestate supporting you. [dead link removed] This is a file avoiding the Stage 4 boss's desync
[dead link removed] 5-3 at first This is a file avoiding the last boss battle's desync. Because two players stand together the B would be ramdomly picked up.
[dead link removed] This is also a file avoiding the last boss battle's deync. But this one,loading and unloading have little difference,because the emulator's picture management have some problem.
These are savestates for FBA-005a You want load this before you change the fbm file name for "spinmast.fbm". Also it may sync without loading this if it is lucky.

The Game

Johnny & Tom, two treasure seekers must save their friend Mary from the evil Mad Doctor and his army of goofy-dressed henchmen, as well as gather the map pieces in order to find the biggest treasure in the world at the same time! Features hilarious cartoon-like character designs and sound effects, awesome looking giant bosses (check out the Chinese dragon!) & fast-paced platforming action! :)

Summary

Stage 1

Using B at first and manipulate the boss's route.

Stage 2

Take damage to save time.The boss must appear 4 red snakes for one time.Controling the appearance of boss is important.

Stage 3

It's too short.No words.

Stage 4

Dying for full HP to make the damage management in the right place.And taking damage jumping over the wall

Stage 5

Dying for jump over the stone.
Using a B to end this movie
Mukki: Judging...
Mukki: Accepted for publication.
GabCM: MEIN!
feos: wrennnn helped me to restore some savestates for this movie (all of them maybe?) and I got it to fully sync by loading slot 7, then fba-rr crashed, then it started showing nothing when I tried to load this game, then it magically started loading fine, and the movie didn't desync anymore. Oh well.

I would also need an encode before watching this, as I can't get FBA working on my computer. I do look forward to seeing this!
Used to be a frequent submissions commenter. My new computer has had some issues running emulators, so I've been here more sporadically. Still haven't gotten around to actually TASing yet... I was going to improve Kid Dracula for GB. It seems I was beaten to it, though, with a recent awesome run by Hetfield90 and StarvinStruthers. (http://tasvideos.org/2928M.html.) Thanks to goofydylan8 for running Gargoyle's Quest 2 because I mentioned the game! (http://tasvideos.org/2001M.html) Thanks to feos and MESHUGGAH for taking up runs of Duck Tales 2 because of my old signature! Thanks also to Samsara for finishing a Treasure Master run.

Can't do the HD upload; total is over 15 minutes (by 19 seconds :( ) and my youtube account is limited. If someone wants the encode to upload it to youtube, let me know. SD Encode: http://www.mediafire.com/?hm27gxnfs99lsav

Amazing run! Would it have been possible to reduce lag in stage 2 scene 3?

I have tried hitting the mummy.All the attack will cost more lags.And this case is Ice and Thunder. Enemies and barriers have more health In level-8. The time killing 1 mummy,3 mummies appear. So,do not hit them is a better choice. When the lowest mummies disappear.It would be all right.
Do the work.

Heh, Neat little run. Nice use of deaths too. This gets a solid Yes from me. Believe it or not, I was actually considering TASing this game as well as several others. Its nice to see it done. Good show x2poet. Suggested Screenshot:

Thanks for the encodes! This is a really good choice of Arcade game. The characters and voices are pretty funny, and the action is fun to follow. The B attacks are cool too. Easy Yes vote.

Ok. I'm doing it. FerretFaucet did it. And this movie gets a Yes vote from me. You seem to be pretty good at making 2-player TASes like this.

Wow,thanks.How flattered I am! The variation of 2-player run is from Tmnt 2 on the NES I think.
Do the work.

Note to self, bad guys say, "Ouch" when I jump on their heads. Yes vote. It's all awesome.
When TAS does Quake 1, SDA will declare war. The Prince doth arrive he doth please.

Well, I retract my former statement. Turns out youtube removed my 15 minute restriction. I'm going to post it for the sake of having it here, but if your HD comes out I'll take it off. Here's an HD link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1eL_FpvFLM

What difference (if any) does it make which of the three locations you choose at the end?

A is the best end. B is the worst end.There is a bomb in the box. C is the same as A.

For a game released as "Spin Master" (in the West), I was expecting more yo-yoing madness. Aside from that, it's nice to see another arcade game receive proper TAS treatment.
