My picks for Atari TAS of the year: [4717] A2600 Warlords by ShesChardcore in 00:00.28 Set it, and forget it! It's fascinating how the AI somehow doesn't handle the player not doing anything as bad as it does. [4803] A7800 Knight Guy in Low Res World: Castle Days by MrTASer & Samsara in 12:44.75 A neat homebrew platformer with some neat tech get through it all. [5007] A2600 Othello "maximum score" by negative seven in 01:37.84 The process of making this TAS is definitely worth a read, especially for checking out Othello AIs and the process of finding the fastest solution across hundreds of thousands of possible solutions.
