I've claimed for a while that this is the only TASable Lynx game that has a mild chance of being entertaining. Here's a test WIP I did. Link to video It's not extraordinarily optimized, more of a quick-and-dirty thing that I did in around twenty minutes, but you get the drift. Here are some minor things to know. 1. You need to be small to perform the warps. You also can't throw items which is why I have to trickily dodge stuff. 2. If you're wondering I throw some of the missed shots because you're granted temporary invincibility for a few frames while throwing them. If you're wondering, the two warps I do mean the only full worlds we have to play are the 5-level Ice world and the very short final Castle world. Feel free to ask questions if I wasn't clear about anything. I'll probably do a full optimized TAS after I'm done with DTC5.

I enjoyed the WIP, it is definitely entertaining for a lynx game.

That was entertaining! It might be the first Lynx Moon movie once you finish it.

Since it's been almost two years since nitrogenesis' testrun, I decided to tackle this game for a full run. Here's a WIP clearing the two Junkyard stages and the Forest stage (taking both of the warps): Link to video Scrapyard Pie Saves about five seconds over nitrogenesis' test WIP up to this point.
http://www.youtube.com/Noxxa <dwangoAC> This is a TAS (...). Not suitable for all audiences. May cause undesirable side-effects. May contain emulator abuse. Emulator may be abusive. This product contains glitches known to the state of California to cause egg defects. <Masterjun> I'm just a guy arranging bits in a sequence which could potentially amuse other people looking at these bits <adelikat> In Oregon Trail, I sacrificed my own family to save time. In Star trek, I killed helpless comrades in escape pods to save time. Here, I kill my allies to save time. I think I need help.

Second WIP, with the Ice world done: Link to video Scrapyard Pie with Frosting In which a boy looking for his dog shoots a yeti to death with a gun in the Arctic.
