Noxxa: Good improvement. It's fun to see even terminal velocity being broken now in the quest to reach the ending as fast as possible. Accepting as an improvement to the published movie.

RIP every SM TAS up to now ever xD. Moonwalk for the win.
collect, analyse, categorise. "Mathematics - When tool-assisted skills are just not enough" ;) Don't want to be taking up so much space adding to posts, but might be worth mentioning and letting others know for what games 1) already some TAS work has been done (ordered in decreasing amount, relative to a game completion) by me and 2) I am (in decreasing order) planning/considering to TAS them. Those would majorly be SNES games (if not, it will be indicated in the list) I'm focusing on. 1) Spanky's Quest; On the Ball/Cameltry; Musya; Super R-Type; Plok; Sutte Hakkun; The Wizard of Oz; Battletoads Doubledragon; Super Ghouls'n Ghosts; Firepower 2000; Brain Lord; Warios Woods; Super Turrican; The Humans. 2) Secret Command (SEGA); Star Force (NES); Hyperzone; Aladdin; R-Type 3; Power Blade 2 (NES); Super Turrican 2; First Samurai.

What's happening with the author list? This submission only mentions Sniq. Encode mentions Sniq and total. Encode name mentions Aran Jaeger as well.
Warning: When making decisions, I try to collect as much data as possible before actually deciding. I try to abstract away and see the principles behind real world events and people's opinions. I try to generalize them and turn into something clear and reusable. I hate depending on unpredictable and having to make lottery guesses. Any problem can be solved by systems thinking and acting.

The fall speed cap no longer applies if you jump while MOONWALKING!!!!! It's pretty weird, and I refuse to believe it hasn't happened to someone by accident at some point. Also noteworthy is that this is probably the largest single improvement to Ceres since, like, armpumping or something.

At least Samus didn't leave them behind. Never saw any visual indication she returned to the ship before the planet exploded. The ship itself is fine, obviously.

Pretty incredible find, looking forward to seeing a 100% run with this whenever someone gets around to it!

I don't know, I feel that the number of people who play SM with moonwalking on is comparable to the number of people who eat Snickers bars with fork and knife or wear mismatched socks deliberately.

Isn't it possible to get to that save without waking up crateria? (the missile collection is what does it)

I believe (according to previous submissions) that awakened planet is required for some of the OOB to be the way it is, though I'm not certain. Your answer is almost certainly in previous submission texts for this category.

Oh. i remember now. the grey door won't open if crateria is not woken (no enemies to kill to activate it) I still want to see the game beaten with 0 missiles.

Great work guys. Love the new technique. Hope you can apply it to some of the other categories.
They're off to find the hero of the day...
