Hello I am new to this site as well as to TASing. I made a TAS of Sonic the Hedgehog for the Sega Genesis using BizHawk. http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/1310304372/Sonic%20The%20Hedgehog%20%28W%29%20%28REV00%29%201.bk2 I was hoping for some helpful feedback. Keep in mind that I am not familiar with the game and did not reference any outside materials when making this.

Nice first attempt. Keep learning!
TASing is like making a film: only the best takes are shown in the final movie.

If I may, I'd highly recommend going to the Sonic the Hedgehog discussion thread as you can get more direct insight and assistance there. There's also the Game Resources page that you can use to further help your projects. Also, also. You can find the emulator that the Genesis/Mega Drive Sonic TASers generally use for their runs here. Just find the version applicable to the one you're running and download it. It's highly recommended to use this over Bizhawk for Genesis/Mega Drive Sonic TASing as it contains functions that's specifically for Sonic built-into it. All in all, there's plenty of room for improvement. I'd advice you to become intimately familiar with the game, such as the route and tricks. Also take your time with your work; there's no need to rush to finish it. That being said, wish you the best of luck and welcome to the community!
