WHAT?! So this was on Genesis too!? FFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU- I've watched this, and I like how you made this game look easy. Voted yes, mostly because it is short enough. SD Stream (RadioKJ) SD Download (3.17 MB) - Alternate link HD Stream (YouTube)

I'll wait for Mister Epic's encode before voting, but this looks like another joke submission to me.

Lol. What the hell did I watch? I'll yes vote this, as it's short and amusing.
I will not use self-reference in my signature.

Aqfaq strikes again with another terrible game. This is a prime example of what's been referred to elsewhere as "run right for justice" - nothing more. People around here will know that in the vast majority of cases I don't consider that to be technically interesting enough to be worth TASing, and this isn't an exception. Voting no.

I suppose SMB gets an exemption from this rule?

I especially enjoy how the game utilizes the Genesis' fullest potential to go far beyond the bounds of what the NES ever could do. As for the run, it was simple but short enough not to get boring. Voting yes.

Funnily enough, I don't consider most of the SMB runs to be particularly interesting, either.

This one is pretty boring yes. I don't think there is any merit to running to the right either. Voting no.

Wow, what a ridiculous game. I didn't know Moses' mother had to run like a maniac past pikemen, huge spiders, and seagulls with Moses on her head. At least this game isn't ridiculously slow. Think of how terrible it would be at Castlevania awkward-looking-stomp-walk speed or MSX-style less-than-10-fps speed.

I don't think this is entertaining enough to be published. Plus the music is annoying. Voting No.

I was going to be the first Meh vote, but then, I tried to play the game .... it takes much more than going straight to the end holding right, it's terrible to confront those lancers, spiders, and such ... and it's very easy to die, especially falling on the water, ... and then, I saw the Noah's Ark challenge, .... I have to vote Yes, this is really hard to do, which means it's really well TASed, even if it looks like the same level all over again, it's not, ..... the music is too monotone, but... it's kinda catchy after trying to play a little.. +D

I can't see any "superplay" in this movie nor entertaining. Voted no due bad game choice.

You know a character is important when they are refereed to by a possessive noun. And of course the controlled character is important.

Although it wasn't particularly interesting, two minutes of this hot running-to-the-right action are many times more bearable for me than, say, 1.5 hours of cape flying in SMW or something similar. Yes. Aqfaq, never give in! \o/

I know how bad the controls are in the NES version, so I assume this would be hard to pull off without tool assistance. Still, it was super boring. I'm wondering if Noah's Ark would have been more interesting, collecting and stacking a zillion animals at super speed. Or David and Goliath, where the levels at least have a vertical element, instead of the linear levels of Baby Moses.

Horrible music. Also, nothing seemed too hard about TASing this (running right, right and right). Voting NO.

If for some reason this movie gets published I think that because it has never been licensed by any console developer it should go into the "hacks" classification.
DarkKobold: I am SO judging this.
Judge not, Dark Kobold! Lest ye etc, etc!
