Improvement

Wow,This is JUST ON TIME! Using 2H and 20 bombs can one turn kill the the last boss.
If hit 1 frame later,boss would fly out.So using 300+300 2H to hit it is right.
The last boss has 8000 HP,1H can hit 10.The 2H in MS5 is not the same as 4,so 2 bullets for one shoot.So 300 can take 3000. 3000+3000+2000=8000.
Before the elephant.I use pistal to hit it so that I can get the right numbers of 2H. But it must be with full bullets.
I just watched it many times and finally compared the frames so that I can kill the boss successfully.

Mukki: Judging...
Mukki: Accepting as an improvement to the currently published run.
Aktan: Processing...

So the last boss cycle is made just once in this submission instead of twice (like in the published run)? That sounds really nice, waiting for an encode though to look the final result.

Not that I'm complaining, but do you ever TAS ANYTHING beside Metal Slug anymore?

Is there an encode of this available? If the encode just shows the differences in the last stage, that would be plenty.
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. From the submission comments:
Shoutouts and thanks to mklip2001 for arguably being the nicest and most supportive person on the forums.

Look forward to the encode. Sounds like a Yes vote in the making.

Hurray for the improvement of the last boss. x2poet beat it in the first phase. I like those MetalSlug movies very much, because the details of the game are so lovely designed.
The need for speed! *highfive*
