#1177: ermacone's NES bombsweeper in 08:55.67

Vote: Did you like watching this movie? (Vote after watching!)

Submission Text Full Submission Page

It's a easy game for a tas. Stages made in one second or less. 100 stages in 8 minutes. Sory for my ugly english... :>

adelikat: Rejecting due to breaking of site rules. Homebrew games are not allowed unless special persmission is given ahead of time. Also, this seems to be a very repititive game that is not suitable for an entertaining TAS.

This game has very repetitive gameplay; I could have sworn that you did some levels multiple times. There is nothing to captivate the viewer, all it is a vaguely amusing little sprite blurring his way through level after level. Also the sound scheme is very annoying, and the TAS only makes that worse. No vote from me.

<Zurreco> if so called professional players cant adapt to every playing field, theyre obviously not that great

For those who can't find the rom it is listed under goodnes as BombSweeper by SnowBro V0.5 (PD). This is a public domain rom i.e. a homebrewed game. I think this falls into similar territory as a hacked game, where by special permission must be granted in order to accept it. I thought the movie was well played regardless, and it could serve as a good walkthrough when played in slow motion. The entertainment value of the run was very low, since 80% of the time is spent tallying the score. Good try but I got to give this a no vote.

They're off to find the hero of the day...

This sounds familiar... isn't this the rom they used when they broke the e-Reader code and started printing cards?

this is similar to Nach's game. amazingly low re-record count... and it doesn't seem sloppy at all but i also wonder what's the point of this... sure, an avi would be like 6 mb, but is it worth the trouble? i fast-forwarded through 80% of the movie

After ten levels or so I just stopped watching. I'm sure you did a good job, but this is a terrible game for a TAS and the fact that you did it more-or-less optimally with only 50 rerecords is a testament to that. Speaking of which, 100 levels with 50 rerecords.... On average that's 1 rerecord for 2 levels. That's nuts. Edit: By the way, a couple of rules might have also been broken. 1. Like someone mentioned, this game is homebrew and might fall under the hacks category. 2. You didn't include your real full name in your submission.
