Hello. I have the privilege to be able to create and upload the first Ultimate Sonic Flash TAS using libTAS whilst running ruffle. This TAS can probably be optimized by maybe 0.3 or 0.4 seconds (?), but that's the best I did for now.
Info Teddy: Claiming for judging.
Info Teddy: Cleared branch label (we simply use no branch label if the run is "any%") and replaced file with correct platform annotation.
Info Teddy: Replaced file with trimmed input that also doesn't skip the credits.
Info Teddy: At first glance there seems to be a faster RTA run by IGT, but it turns out that it uses a glitch that increases Sonic's speed by pausing on a springboard while not increasing the IGT, so in realtime it's actually slower overall. Plus it's not as entertaining. Therefore this beats all known records, so accepting to Standard.
Note to publishers: When I dumped this the resulting encode seems to have its horizontal alignment messed up, but it doesn't look like any data is lost, so if it happens to you then it should be possible to fix it by correcting the alignments. This is left as an exercise for the reader.
Info Teddy: Fixed the name, also need to fix the framerate of the file and add TheAmazingAladdin's improvements...
Info Teddy: Replaced with improvement by TheAmazingAladdin (+ correct platform annotation and credits), but couldn't fix framerate without desyncing. Publishing can still go ahead now.
Note to the author, next time the framerate should be correct, as per the Ruffle guidelines.

I really deserve to be co-author because i saved 1.29 seconds based on IGT. If i'm not mistaken, That Eggman's bomb missile cycles in zone 2 boss are sync with my improvement TAS and the grindersky's original TAS and it's harder to bypass so the IGT time remains at 0:11.04 My improvement TAS is done using the same SWF file and same Ruffle version as original TAS does.

Wow that was the first Sonic game I've played in my life, and I'm really glad to see this TAS. Great work and yes vote :) I don't know if you're aware, but there's an interesting glitch at 1:35 of this video: Link to video This glitch works with every spring, and it's also possible to clip into walls if you apply this pause glitch with that diagonal spring (at 0:24 of the encode video) from Leaf Forest 1, though I'm not sure if this glitch can be really useful for this TAS.
My homepage --Currently not much motived for TASing as before...-- But I'm still working.
