Hahaha, this is really incredible! I really enjoyed reading the correspondence with TheZlomus. It is incredible to me to see what has developed out of the silly game end glitch I stumbled onto on console over a decade ago. What a fantastic game.
Good work, everybody! I have no opinion on the legality ruling, but I really appreciate the science going on here and got a kick out of TheZlomus' shoutouts. Thanks for all your work on this game. :D

So, I had a stupid idea at the beginning of last year. And I kinda made it happen.

This is, by no means, either optimized nor does it adhere to the TASVideos format. (I should've leapt off the stage until I ran out of lives, for that.) However, I just thought it'd be a fun idea to try and hit 999,999 as fast as possible. And… this is what I came up with.
I probably won't continue it and if I did submit it officially, it would be with the intention of getting the ball rolling rather than be anything truly spectacular. So, for now, it's probably best to just leave this here as an "unfinished" video I never intend to pick back up. Someone else can most assuredly do it better and make it more entertaining. That's the hope, anyway~!
And to think, this came about because I wanted to see how many points I could squeeze out of just Level 1 - Ragnarok's Canyon…
I'm not sure if this was already discovered or not, but I discovered a strange glitch where a toad can keep taking damage without losing any health. It seems that the toad keeps alternating between a health value of 35 and 39. This can be seen in the following video, and via the following movie. Note that I've only tested this on the PAL version, so idk if it works in NTSC.
