Oddworld Adventures II is an 8 bit 2D side scrolling platform game based of Abe's Exoddus for the Gameboy Colour released in 2000. This movie aims for accurate emulation whilst beating the previous movie in RTA timing. This run has some new strats in Paramite Vaults, Bonewerkz, Brewery and the Boiler to save time. This movie is 19 seconds faster than the pervious thanks to new strats!
  • Aims for the Fastest Time and Beats RTA Records
  • Takes damage to save time
  • Uses glitches

Stage by Stage Comments

Paramite Vaults

In this section, I change the room order to match Namesoom's run.

Bonewerkz

There were some new optimizations for rooms 3 and 4. In rooms 3, the community figured out it was possible to use the Slog to explode with the Slig gunshots, so you don't have to possess him earlier. There's also a lift glitch in room 4!

Brewery

In room 2 of Hub 1, I do another lift skip, also in the last section of the Boiler! I also change the route to match the latest speedrun route!

Thanks

I need to thank mostly Bluecandel here for the new strats as usual, and Namesoom for his runs that showcase the new strats!

Samtastic: I need the movie file updated to this one please https://tasvideos.org/UserFiles/Info/639269114798447727

nymx: Claiming for judging.
nymx: Replacing movie file with a newer version, requested by Samtastic.
nymx: Samtastic, you remind me of my obsession with F-Zero...only, you have more categories among your different ports. Basically, when you spend enough time with a particular game, you are going to excel in it. I'm surprised at the WR comparison, as I thought it would have followed suit only with the PSX versions. Oh well, you cut off near 20 seconds (if I got the right timing) and that does the job. Great job to the two of you, and also with the series.
Accepting to "Standard".
Samtastic: I need to set this to 'delayed' as there are some more strats in Mudomo that I haven't added yet. I'll get this updated and sent over soon.

nymx: Setting to "Delayed", as requested by the author, pending further improvements.

nymx: I have replaced the movie file with a new improvement.
nymx: Same judgement still applies.
Accepting to "Standard".

McBobX: Processing...

I recently discovered that if you haven't reached a level of frustration with TASing any game, then you haven't done your due diligence. ---- SOYZA: Are you playing a game? NYMX: I'm not playing a game, I'm TASing. SOYZA: Oh...so its not a game...Its for real? ---- Anybody got a Quantum computer I can borrow for 20 minutes? Nevermind...eien's 64 core machine will do. :) ---- BOTing will be the end of all games. --NYMX
