The game has a lot of cutscene, sure. But I still think the glitches made it all worth it. Here's a moderate "yes" vote.

Hey, this game doesn't look half-bad. Although it does get kind of samey pretty quick. A run like this could really use a wallclip or other obvious glitches to keep things more interesting, but I guess it's a good run for what it is. Also, with such a lovely classical music soundtrack, how could I say no? ...You get a "meh".

This game looks unpleasant to TAS. So many enemies bumbling in the way... Yet, watching it in all its monotony almost became hypnotic in a way, making me forget daily life for a moment. So the run is worth at least a "meh" vote, I think.

Aww, thanks for the shout-out. You did well optimizing this terribly monotonous game. 3 seconds saved in the jungle level alone is pretty impressive! And it was almost nostalgic and fun to experience this game with my senses again, since I last played it for so many years ago. Here, have a nuanced "meh" vote.

Well, that was a pretty relaxing stroll through a mostly empty mansion. Here's a mild 'yes' vote.

Esoteric game on an esoteric platform - first time I've heard of Uzebox. Interesting. I don't know what to say about the run, really. All the driving left me fairly nonplussed, although I did observe this game has better car sound effects than Deadly Premonition. First impression lies somewhere around "meh".

Oh man, the music sounds like a broken record. Still, I found the run more entertaining than not because of the absurd luck manipulation, and it doesn't last too long either. So here's a 'yes' vote of some description.

It's a pretty plain looking, slow-paced game. However, I liked the variety from the different stages, so watching the run actually felt a bit like a jungle adventure. It was worth a "meh" at least.

Pretty interesting puzzle game, had never heard of it before. But yeah, it's not the most entertaining run out there. It gets bonus points personally from the sheer shock of it all, plus it doesn't last very long. I think my reaction averages out to a "meh" vote.

Before One-Punch Man, there was Karate Champ. This is the first time for me seeing some of these old Arcade classics. Personally, I found the run amusing for the most part. All the repetition becomes absurd over time, especially seeing the hero get run over by the bull over and over again, as if it was his favorite hobby. Technically apt TASing too, or so it looks like. Entertainment-wise it's a weak 'yes'.

With the slow running speed and low gravity, this game might as well take place on the moon. It even looks a bit comical. But all in all, Valis doesn't seem to be a bad game, and I was more entertained by the run than I had hoped for. My vote falls somewhere between a robust "meh" and a weak "yes".

It was quite a fast-paced and pleasant run. Voted 'yes'.

Those are some outrageously large pints. Well... this seems a colorful, nice game with a lot of non-obvious stuff going on beneath the surface. Slightly repetitive, but I liked it enough to vote 'yes'.

This game is not kind to senses and gets old pretty quick. Going to have to vote 'no' to this one. Curious how the two versions of the game are this different, though.

Huh, a pretty curious game. Having to chase another character through the entire game is something pretty unique, I think. Other than that, I liked the presentation: nice, expressive sprites and cartoonish music. It's a bit late, but I'd give it a 'yes' vote.

Seems like a nice game choice. Nothing to complain about the run itself, and the entertainment choices during the autoscroller were worth it. Voted 'yes'.

Kind of torn here. The run is very fascinating and well put together on a technical level, and quite entertaining too for the first 12 minutes. But the long string of deaths that follows is just, well... uninteresting. Since the string of deaths is over half of the run's length, I should probably only vote 'meh' for the run's entertainment value. Great work overall, though.

Time for some more diagonally minded, fast-paced early FPS action, it seems. Sure, I'll give it a 'yes' vote. The map script of the separate encode is a nice way to show what's actually going in the run too, very handy.

Beware criminals of Mega-City One! You're in for a rude ignoring as super busy Judge Dredd will just brush past you in a hurry. I thought the run was fairly enjoyable due to the fast action and occasional glitches, so here's a nondescript 'yes' vote.

Ah, I remember the Hugo adventure games. Hadn't heard of this sequel to them, though. It seems to be a pretty fast and incomprehensible run due to the movement speed. Not my favorite way to spend 6 minutes, but I guess it gets a mild 'yes' vote.

Even though this run is not action packed, it completes the game in a fun way and I can't help but give it an approximation of a 'yes' vote.

This seems like a genuinely nice puzzle game. The run is slightly mired down by the game's slow, methodical pace, although some enemy dodging in later levels looks pretty impressive. I guess it gets a weak 'yes' vote from me.

Interesting if also cheesy license-based game. Going surfing in an active volcano seems like it would be a somewhat unwise life choice even for a hardcore thrill seeker, but I guess it works out for Thrilla in this instance. The action is pretty fast-paced, but it can get a bit samey too. Overall, I think my opinion rounds up to a 'meh'.

I can't say I've played a lot of boxing games. Even with the in-depth movie description, I feel like some intricacies of this run are lost for me. But at least it's short 'n' violent, and the game has a nice presentation with the colorful characters and weird robot voices, so what the hey. Here's a mild 'yes' vote.

Between the extremely good music, relatively high number of glitches and sheer nostalgia value, this run is sufficiently entertaining for me to give at least a moderate 'yes' vote.
