Super Meat Boy is not possible to TAS right now. Load screens desync.

Using Kilaye's Linux TAS tool (libTAS I believe), Matte created this incredible any% TAS, beating the game in 15:32. This is 2 min faster than the current RTA WR, 1:30 faster than Kilaye's previous TAS and 50s faster than Hankyu's segmented run. It's absolutely mesmerizing to watch :D Link to video He was able to make it as a whole input file, so no video editing shenanigans were involved. I believe he doesn't plan on submitting here though because the tool still has numerous syncing issues.
I problably made mistakes, sorry for my bad English, I'm French :v

This was absolutely beautiful to watch. Huge props to Kilaye for making libTAS and Matte for finishing this TAS. I so wish this could be submitted to the site.

Same. Hopefully in the future! A competitor to Hourglass for PC game TASes sounds amazing.

What's with the periodic pausing?

From the run description: "Autojumping: It allows for the character to make full jumps and jump inputs on every frame at the same time. It is performed by holding jump, pausing, releasing jump, and unpausing. It can be cancelled by pressing jump again."

Walls don't real, the TAS: Link to video (Quick explanation: SMB has VERY different physics art different frame rates, so you can make the frame rate lower to clip through walls or higher to skip cutscenes. The wrong warp from 1-Glitch to 6-1 is explained here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJdhfKOhcsc Though not the underlying principles, which I'd be curious about, if anyone knows why this does what it does!)

Absolutely phenomenal once again. I'd really love if the run were submitted to the site. Yo what were those wall clips, god damn

SMB's fluid character movement makes for incredibly watchable speedruns (by humans like myself, who typically aren't able to enjoy hyper-glitched-type runs). Even the wall-clipping was easy to follow. I could watch this for hours - which is why I really love the 106% run that MatteSMB did a couple years ago (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EF7ISgbS2-w).

I agree wholeheartedly. I'm not sure why he hasn't submitted them. libTAS runs have been acceptable on the site for a couple of years now I believe.
