<Brushy> The movement seems to be really hard to optimise and it just somehow doesn't seem to as quick as possible.
<Brushy> I'm not sure how the movement works in that game though, so it might all be just in my mind.
<Brushy> And by being not sure, I mean that I don't know a single thing about that game.
<KennyManZZZ> Movement in Ikachan is very atypical
<KennyManZZZ> You use a total of three buttons for movement
<KennyManZZZ> Left, right and Z, which is the "swim" busson
<KennyManZZZ> *button
<KennyManZZZ> Each press of Z propels you slightly in the direction you're pointing
<KennyManZZZ> So each time you see a bubble emerge from the sprite, that's one press of Z
<KennyManZZZ> It's practically impossible to do precise movements
<Brushy> That much I figured out.
<KennyManZZZ> And if you go fast in one direction you'll have a ton of momentum when you want to move in another direction
<Brushy> Yeah.
<Brushy> So it seems that it is really difficult to optimise your movements.
<KennyManZZZ> Yes.
Brushy> I don't think 2871 rerecords are enough to optimise a game like that, unless you know exactly what you are doing all the time.
I did what now?
TASes aim for perfection and perfection is not achieved by not using the most basic tools to their full extent. TASes should never forgo the use of frame advance and it never hurts to use a lot of rerecords to check if you can do something faster, be it a jump or an attack or even a simple action such as entering a door. ... I encourage you to try to improve this run for the good practice it provides and post your WIPs on the forum (not submitting them, but creating a thread for this game and posting the WIPs there) to get feedback.
Since this is just a demo of a game, I don't think there should be a TAS of it on the site. I know that the game hasn't been released yet, but that doesn't change the fact that it's not a full game. As for the run itself, it doesn't look optimized. TASes aim for perfection and perfection is not achieved by not using the most basic tools to their full extent. TASes should never forgo the use of frame advance and it never hurts to use a lot of rerecords to check if you can do something faster, be it a jump or an attack or even a simple action such as entering a door. Based on these thoughts, I will have to vote no. I encourage you to try to improve this run for the good practice it provides and post your WIPs on the forum (not submitting them, but creating a thread for this game and posting the WIPs there) to get feedback.
Did someone find the vibrato button 1 week before shipping and decided that all notes in all tracks in the whole game must have it?

Anyone else with me?
I thought this had a good riff: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFK6H_CcuX8 - but then I realized Stevie Wonder wrote the original, which is even better.
You're the first person I've ever heard or read referring to Sabbath or Priest as "hard rock". Black Sabbath is widely considered the first metal band ever, with riffs and chords fundamentally different than any hard rock group.
