Hindsight is 20/20 my friend. Every glitch/trick looks obvious once it's found :)
uhm… I don’t think so… all of the crazy cloning glitches pannenkoek has uploaded actually do look impressive, a jumpkick from a previously already known OoB area isn’t

making topic to stop derailment of the submission one

I don't mean to be rude, but will the TAS for this game ever be updated? With the secret code that skips the Artie fight and a method of entering levels earlier on the world map (skipping the flowers and the bomb levels 2 and 8 throw out at you) that I found, there's still a lot of improvement to be made.
sounds interesting, do you have videos of these things? what other improvements do you have in mind?
I could probably TAS this game if I wanted to, but I probably won’t have the time to for a while

“I wanted to save this until the end because it can be quite boring to watch someone do this trick for a long period of time,”
so is this a speed/entertainment trade-off?

thought I’d drop an update: me and David haven’t done shit in pretty much the whole month, because he found a new SC in MKDS and a WR frenzy ensued, the 30th MK8 comes out and I’ll probably whore it 24/7 so I don’t know how much else I’ll contribute to the TAS or if David even plans on continuing it on his own in June
sad times, yes

I think you missed a few crazy through… and your picking up of passengers doesn’t really look optimized, I’d think you should be next to them so that they only have to jump in like Etch said
but otherwise it looks pretty nice

File -> Play Movie -> Read Only -> make a savestate where you want to restart from -> open the movie again, this team Read+Write -> load savestate -> continue TASing
basically you run the .dsm, make a savestate where you want, then load it under “Read+Write” (you have to untick the Read-only box or something)

an A presses run is never going to be published on the site, give it up; pannenkoek has made a YT playlist for all the records, watch that if you’re interested

I don’t know how I feel about this, the game doesn’t look beaten, to me
running credits is all you need to beat a game now? we’ve had lots of previous submissions which were rejected because they didn’t set some kind of game-ending state, but merely displayed a graphic, why is this different? sadly the examples are all over the place and I don’t remember the specifics of either, so I can’t link them; although the already mentioned Pokémon Yellow is one of them
I think beating a game means that the next time you play it, you have the freedom of NG+, in this case it would mean playing right from the Wily stage, which doesn’t happen here
I can’t agree with most posters in here

09:00.67 current time (cut 00:50.28)
I had gotten annoyed with the game 2 days ago and said I’d stop TASing it after having failed yet again at optimizing a room, but for no reason today I TAS’d another room and saved 20 frames total, David tried it too but only tied my result, so I hexed the whole thing; I still think it’s improvable though

^no, and he’s done with that now
09:01.47 current time (cut 00:49.48)
we reviewed my 4-frame improvement and (mostly David) bumped it to 22 frames, I tried to save 2 more but after a while I got way too annoyed with this stupid game and hexed the whole run together instead
I think we’ll still try to get those 2 frames though then there are loads other things to improve
to be honest this sub is taking more work than previously thought, I hope we get it
edit: 09:01.00 current time (cut 00:49.94)
