You're a bubble. Later you're still a bubble, but with powerups.

Any% Speedrun in 3:25 by Skunky48. There's also 100% speedruns which collect all ducks in the world. The speedrun utilizes some OOB glitches to get the Double Jump faster.
I would like to see a TAS of the game, although I don't know if the developers are going to continue on the project. I certainly think it'd be entertaining.
Opinions?
These are the rooms I could reach, the missing ones crash the game, probably the resulting tile data pointer points to something that break the game or loop indefinitely. An interesting result is that the whole map loops, there on the right you can see a copy of the normal area but 1 screen up. Another cool thing is that blue room in the bottom to the right, for some reason there's a copy of the Bubble, you end up controlling both.
My whole idea was to reach the credits room earlier by abusing these rooms, but as you can see you can't get there unfortunately. Also i could move only with cheats, so many random solid tiles it's hard to maneuver there.This game is great! I started a TAS right after i saw the speedrun, which uses a few good techniques. Here's my lua script, for BizHawk. I guess my run is halfway done, right after taking the iron ball. My route is the same of the speedrun.
Apart from bug fixes, we revamped the level design in some places, making some of the beginning challenges fairer and hopefully making it less likely for the player to get lost.

Ok so my question is: can i continue making this TAS on version 1.0 to abuse that OOB clip glitch or i should change it to the new one?
You shouldn't need a degree in computer science to get into this hobby.
You can keep using 1.0 for the glitch, yes.
