Saved some frames on 2-1, did some work on 2-2. Stuck again on another boss fight, though. http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/1513904976/Michael%20Jackson%27s%20Moonwalker%20%28REV%2000%29%20%28JUE%29%20%5B%21%5D.gmv

I'm glad that you like it. Referring to current progress, I'm now working on 3-1 boss fight. Well, this time I decided to conceal the rest until I submit it for a surprise.

Changed the mind. I think much better option is to let people choose whether they watch it sooner or later. Feedbacks are welcomed because I wanna make sure the movie is fun enough for audience. Anyway, here's the latest WIP. It completes the game until 3-1.

This is getting better and better, really good work. I loved what you did around frame 20600, so funny. :)
I am old enough to know better, but not enough to do it.

It's been a while, I should refer to the current progress. The run is still on work, slow but gradually proceeding. Most of the works I did recently was to restart some stages due to new trick & unnoticed shortcut, so I actually didn't go much further from last WIP. I'll post when I feel enough to show something; maybe that can be the day I submit. Lastly, thanks for all the comments. I'll do my best not to disappoint you guys.

I’ve been wanting to do this game for awhile since I’ve talked with odongdong about potential improvements. I am finally dipping my toe into it and seeing where it leads me. I have only done the first stage so far and saved about 1 second of in game time. I still think the way I ended the boss fight is ugly since I have to walk to the child to finish the stage, so hopefully I’ll figure out how to change that. Link to video

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT????? So I somehow found a big skip on the 1st boss that killed all the enemies that were on screen somehow. I have no idea how I did this and I am so confused. I also wonder if this kind of trick will work for any other boss. If anyone wants to investigate here's the movie file for BizHawk 2.4: http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/info/62531016501044827 and here's an encode of the boss: Link to video

Link to video Here's all that we have for worlds 1 and 2, the person helping out now is Bloopiero. there was also a massive trick I found for the 2-3 boss that almost feels like cheating. if you see it you will know what I mean.

Hi, I don't have much else to add other than that you two are doing excellent work so far! I love how many subtle improvements they are even though the genera route is still nearly identical to my run. Also, thanks for keeping that dance moves before the first level's boss fight. It's still as hilarious as it was when I made the old run.

So that was a glitch I accidentally found a few months ago, but I did not understand it at the time. But I think now I know what’s happening. Normally if you shoot sparkles, they will eventually go away. They can also go away if you do a spin move. I found out that if you “pump” the spin move, you can keep the hitbox from the sparkles active for longer. This allows us to attack both sides of the screen at once. This trick is a bit hard to do in the 3rd stage however, but I’m working with Bloop on finding the best pattern for it. I was kindof afraid that this trick would make the bosses less entertaining to watch, but that doesn’t seem like the case, as long as I still do swagger moves it will stay entertaining.
