This is 22:58.48 faster than the previous movie by adelikat!
Everything is done faster in this version. I worked hard to walk in straight lines.
I think there should be 2 branches for Glover; any% and all-stages. This movie should not obsolete adelikat's.

Fastest TAS I’ve ever done. Took me 2 days! I just couldn’t resist beating my old pal adelikat. Though, in my opinion, I think this is less entertaining than his run.
Tricks used in this run
By rapidly mashing the L button you go really fast.
At the very beginning you can move earlier by mashing the Z button.
You can clip directly to the boss room of every stage by using the crystal. This was found by Heeheex2 and Fenrikaz. Though, it was much harder to do with the barrier blocking the way, but it still turned out possible. I doubt this trick can be done on console.
Special thanks
Venick409: Gave me some advices throughout the TAS .
Heeheex2 and Fenrikaz : For finding the crystal clipping technique.
Isn't Frankenstein supposed to look like this:
Anyway, I vote "meh" for entertainment. It's pretty much the same glitch repeated over and over again. The TAS itself is well done, however.
What a well hidden boss rush mode :D
As someone who didn't play the game, I can't say I find it very entertaining to watch. But these glitches are still nice, and it's short enough... I'm really torn between meh and yes.

Ok, seing a weird game being abused like that with all the glitches has some charm, let's put a shy "yes" on this run.

Looks like the pink stuff was supposed to be transparent. Good ole N64...

Everyone should watch Adelikat's TAS first, it makes this movie so much easier to understand what about the game is being broken. Yes vote for unprecedented improvement to a N64 game .
And yes, this means that an all stages run needs to be done.
Holy shit it's here. If I could I would vote yes 1000000x (unfortunately I need like 5 posts to vote yes even once). Thank you so much for making this, I love you forever.
This is just me but I do think all levels/100% and any% would be good categories since this is basically a boss speedrun. I was entertained though and very shocked the game could be broken like that. Easy yes.

Setting this to "delayed" since Kyman re-did the barrier skip from above and saved 18 frames on the full movie, so far.
Barrier skip??

It's been a week since Spikestuff asked. Nahoc, what's the story?
