Get the birds and avoid the balls.


Samsara: When Samsara's in the crib, ma, judge it like it's hot.
Samsara: The routing looks noticeably suboptimal when watching in real time, and some very quick tests prove that. Should you choose to come back with a second submission of this game, please explore every possible route and try to manipulate the ball out of your path - My test file shows that the ball's trajectory can change, so find out what causes it to change and use it to your advantage.
Rejected due to suboptimality.

Welp, question 1 right off the bat: Why (J) over (U)? I'll temp encode this too I guess okay. Here: Link to video EDIT: User movie #28761844779977989 I feel like not enough thought was put into the routing: This basic attempt is 40 frames faster after the first 3 stages, with improvements on the latter two. EDIT2: Stages 4 and 5 are improvable as well... Well, then.

It's possible to do sub 44 min. I would improve stage 2 if I were you. Major luck manipulation. Stage 1 is the most optimal. 30 fps movement because of limitations of the gameboy.

Then this shouldn't have been submitted.

I... already did? By half a second over your run. I'm not continuing with an improvement, by the way.
Major luck manipulation.
Yes, as I said, you can manipulate the trajectory of the balls. If you knew about it already, why wasn't it used in the run?
Stage 1 is the most optimal.
That's less than 1% of the run...
30 fps movement because of limitations of the gameboy.
...Yep. Indeed.

2 balls slows game to 20fps. Oddly, 2 players runs at 15fps due to communication. I started a new TAS, optimized stages 2, 3, 4, 6, and 9. 2 seconds ahead.
