Notes:
About playing the GMV file, it apparently desyncronizes when player 1 is set to
a 6-button controller. To properly play it, player 1 has to be set to 3-button.
There's one or two parts I have doubts about, but I think this run came out
really good. Recently I've begun to wonder if the game really would be
faster with
Fang. I suppose that warrants a future time attack. Right now, though, me
and my
brother are working on a two player time attack, so it might be a while
before I try
something like that.
What's impressive in this movie? I think the inhuman usage of Browny's Yo-yo is
the most impressive. Some of my favorite examples:
-Killing the first boss so fast that he never enters his second attack mode.
-"Hovering" the yo-yo on the waterfall miniboss and the final boss' second
form to
kill blazingly fast.
-Killing the strange robot ball's (level 4) final form as soon as he flys by.
-Cockily attacking the 4th level boss' final form.
I also spent time making sure I fired only when a boss\miniboss would start
taking damage and stopping as soon as they were dead (IE, bullet conservation).
There may be a few parts where I didn't do this perfectly, though, such as
stage
5, where I fired the yo-yo and didn't hit anything. This escaped my
attention during the creation process and I didn't notice until I had already
finished the battle against the scientist.
I suppose in stage 5 it also would have been more entertaining to play around
with the B weapon's boomerang as opposed to killing all the monsters (which
includes the ones that attempt to committ suicide by jumping down a hole).
Ah well.
An interesting thing to note is that, against the omnibot (boss of level
4), in his
first mode I unduck for a single frame, my head clearly thrusting into the
boss,
yet I don't get damaged.
Anyways, I hope you find this run satisfying enough to put on your site
sometime
in the future. :)
