Are you still looking for Robin? I wanna try to join. P.S. I already had worked last two-three weeks on 2-1 (now only boss is remained) - it will be completely finished this weekend :) If you will be satisfied in optimisation/entertainment quality of this stage, i will be glad to start long-term cooperation.

Can't wait for this TAS, I have nothing useful to say. How would the autoscrollers be handled? I wish those stages were shorter.
I like Doraemon, cats and arcade games.

I thought about it. In theory 2-2 should be approximately like http://tasvideos.org/711M.html ...only with 2 players :)

The music fits superplay so perfectly in this game.

Thanks for support guys. We working slowly, but don't worry, work in progress and sooner or later flying stage will be finished. Autoscroller flying stage in reality is not fully autoscroller. In several sections, the stage does not progress until you have killed all the enemies. According to tests, TAS of this stage will be approximately 2 minutes shorter than SDA speedrun record. So it will be "only" 12 mins instead of 14 mins.

Flying level is an autoscroller = background is scrolling, you're staying on the same screen all the level. Other levels = background is static, it is you who advances forward. Screen follows you throughout the level. Am I right?

Your definition is right only about true autoscroller. As i mentioned this flying stage is not fully autoscroller. To understood this stage correctly you can consider that background is absent at all, just dark screen, and from time to time enemies appear. Limited amount of enemies appear in the same order, and when you will kill all of them stage will be ended. Time when next enemy spawn can be strictly defined, no matter how fast you killed the previous enemies (true autoscroller), but in some places next enemy will not appear until you kill all previous enemies (not autoscroller). So killing enemies faster in these important places mean that you are make end of stage a bit closer.

Archanfel, why did you use green weapon on that zeppelin boss? Red weapon will definitely hit with all three projectiles, isn't it more useful?

Initially i prepared two red weapons, but it turned to be that in practice to always hit boss with all three projectiles 3 without misses is almost impossible task. Empty spaces between turrets is more than enough to easily miss dozens of projectiles. Almost impossible..... hmmm..... sounds bad? => Don't worry, in final version this boss was redone (a few weeks ago) with using two red weapons :)

Definitely? No way! It was infinitely harder than you ever can imagine. But in general you are right - it is faster.

Flight level. Has anyone done research on it? 1) Is there a way to fire faster than intended? Like skipping attack animation in earlier levels? 2) I just need to kill everything afap, right? Is this level as staightforward as I think? 3) I'm using Gens 11a. Is it alright?

Of course, it was deeply investigated.

Nope, here only Doppler effect can be used sometimes, but it just few frames difference.

Not everything, only particular enemies are significant. It depend on how staightforward you think it is. Somewhen in september, when this stage will be done you can ask all details about it but for now - please no more questions.

Sorry guys, so far hard to say something particular. Almost no progress from mid july. Truncated-sensei very very very busy, and he can't find time to redo one small (but significant) segment. I patiently wait him more than two months... But i still kept enthusiasm at this project. So when this unexpectedly long delay will be over i gladly will continue work again.

Could you redo it yourself probably? Must be prepared for the worst scenario :)

No public movie file anymore. So please temporarily forget about Sky level. Lets move forward. “But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.

Regarding to Gotham's Toy Factory, I don't understand one thing: why do you hit at 1:21 with one player. Is it really doesn't matter: both players hits, or single player hits?
