Don't jump longer/higher jumps than I have to (almost never)
Aggressive against the bosses
Hi!
I'm back with a splatterhouse timeattack ("Wanpaku Graffiti"). I have improved the movie at many possible ways according to my opinion. Plays the japanese version but its translated to english (I thought that was much funnier since you now can understand the epilogue of the movie for example). I thought my previous run on this game was really good-until now!
I Hope you find this movie entertaining!

adelikat: The hash of the file does not match the good dump, but it syncs on it, so I catalogged it with the good one.

Woah, wait, is this a official translation or a fan translation? Last I checked, fan translations aren't accepted, and neither the submission text nor ROM name are very informative.
Thank you! I will go watch this now...

Post-watch edit:
Not bad. I couldn't find any obvious errors, although I think it was mostly because of that HOLY CRAP FLASHING COLORS-induced headache near the end. Durrrrrrrrgghgh.
A lot of the 'idle back-and-forth'ing was somewhat weird and out of place, assuming that was what it was... and the end boss fight just sucked (far to repitive), although it was still a nice playthough and end bosses are supposed to be annoying.
Yes vote from me.
Umm.. you should use Frame-advance (frame counter) i have seen your "old submissions" and movies looked little "slow,not so good"
i Haven't watched this movie yet.. but i'll check it
i hope this movie is better than other your submissions Diman.. :)
Hello Diman. I forgot to watch this when it came so I though I would now.
- Can you stay on the right edge of the screen after the dancing dracula?
- Can you jump to keep forward speed during slashing at the green mouse boss (17400)?
- The bosses just seem to be waiting periods, most of them. That's not very interesting to watch...
I'll edit later with more comments.
Man, I have explained one time on the site why I didn't stayed on the right side (maybe you didn't saw it).
Anyway, the reason was that I didn't save time on that, because when the game scrolls I can't move (if I am on the right side). That's why
I go back instead and then start to walk. I don't know about you guys but I think that looks better.
Play the game and you will know.
>Anyway, the reason was that I didn't save time on that, because when the game scrolls I can't move (if I am on the right side).
If you jump right as the game is about to scroll, it looks like you can move for a while when the game scrolls. I'm not sure if it saves time, but did you try it?
I tried the other suggestion i had, but that one definitely doesn't work.
I think my biggest problem with this would be that, even if it would be perfectly played, it's just not a very entertaining game.
Ok, what ever man, I'll do it some day. I'm going to try to jump right as the game is about to scroll, to see if it saves time. I'm going to do what ever it
takes to get to the moviepage.

The Guidelines>Play for entertainment, not for ego.
The Guidelines>Select your game well. Not all games have potential for entertaining movies.
it might be best to post a WiP (dunno how many you've done) and flat out ask if its entertaining. some games simply aren't entertaining inspite of whatever fame it might have.
considering ive seen quite a few NES submissions from you, how about Low G Man?
i for one want to see it optimized well, and perhaps done on hardest difficulty? (still debating over that)
ive made notes for it as well. sorry if im shamelessly plugging, but its a fun game that deserves recognition... plus the final boss is sure to be a challenge to make entertaining.
I thought this a was a good choice for once. = (
I think that's impossible to presume what the viewers like.
Don't presume what the viewers like. Know what the viewers like.
If you make a thread about a game and post WIP's, chances are you'll figure out whether people like the game or not.
Personally, I would avoid making movies for NES games that don't have movies. All the best ones have already been taken and the bad ones remain. There are many good GBA games so you might like to give GBA a try. Or you could try SNES.
>I think that's impossible to presume what the viewers like.
The comments you got from your last submission for this game is a good source of info. Many of them were negative about the game.
If you don't want to make a whole version to find out that people didn't like it, make just one level and upload your partial movie to the corresponding forum (in this case, the NES forum) and ask for opinions.

i still think there are some good NES games to be done. id suggest looking into GENs as well for games specifically made for or only appearing there (because people seem to like SNES versions a lot more for various reasons).
I still think there are some good NES games to be done.
And I thought this game was good for a TAS. Does anyone disagree?
Can somebody tell me what they think about this game?
Truncated don't need to reply. I already know what he thinks.

Yes, I know that list. But I'm wondering if there's another list at the forum
or something. Its nothing wrong with those games on the list but I
think they are to hard. =P

Thanks for the advice man but I think the game is to hard. Nothing wrong
with the game overall though.

Dude, that sounds like an extreme impossibility to me! Like I could
learn myself to know that! But it was cool that you explained
to me that I can use GBA games or such.

Thanks mate! Maybe I'm just lazy I don't know, but it certainly would be
nice if you could fix an idea of a game.

And I hope this game is one of them. ; )

I hope you think its better too. =)
Well, I have changed a lot in this movie so that you presumably don't find
anything wrong. Maybe I will make a third TAS of this game but I'm not 100% sure..........
