I would recommend that you request for this to be stickied, if you haven't done so yet. This sort of information should be kept at the top.

I am kicking myself so hard right now. Purple looks like a miles better game choice than Orange... whyyyy... Good luck, don't lose your sanity.

Not that I'm saying you should just bury your head in the sand, ALAKTORN, but if you are getting 'stressed out' and being 'driven insane' by this website and its users, then you're going to have to get it all out of your head some way or another.

how horrid the game is (feel free to be as creative as possible when expressing this in the poll thread)
okey dokey then THIS FLOPPING PIECE OF SHOT GAME! IT MAKES FRIGGING DR JEKYLL AND MR HYDE LOOK LIKE BLIPPY MARIO GALAXY 2! THE MUSIC MAKES JUSTIN BEAVER (sic) SOUND LIKE FRAPPING ONE BY METALLICA U2! ... Phew. Had to get that out of my system. Voting Yes.

I'm just going to leave this here. Most relevant examples from that list: - Zanac
Due to the highly repetitive nature of this game, the hidden 9th input button (the console's Reset button) is used to enable stage select to warp to the final (12th) level. This results in an unusually long gray screen at the start of the movie. Starting on the final level with 3 lives and only the initial pea-shooter for a weapon normally makes the game near impossible to win.
- F-Zero "first track" F-Zero is of a genre (namely, Racing) that requires a lot of skill to optimise, and where (when it comes to time trials, at least) individual-course TASes are generally preferred. Also, I'd like to clarify that Super Gussun Oyoyo skipped levels in the 'room/area' sense (not the difficulty sense as Radiant implied) and, unlike Genix Family, only skipped as far as mid-game.

Going to have to give this one a No vote. Way too arbitrary mate, just not the sort of content we want to have on our website. Still a very cool TAS though nice job (not that I watched it)
Are you trying to beat Samsara at her own game, mister? Regarding the run itself... yyyeahhh. Not publication-worthy, but still kinda entertaining. I did find the method used to get out of Gohma's room pretty WTF-y, but... *sigh*, here's your vote.

Kurabupenguin: I doubt it. Simply selecting the final stage and playing it requires little effort. If skipping levels can only be done using glitches (e.g. Arkanoid) then I'd say it's generally permissible. Gay: I don't believe that this submission is likely to be publishable. I would suggest that you attempt an all-levels TAS run instead.

Oh yeah, I remember this game. Never beat it, though - I couldn't figure out the room where you have to turn the light beams. I'd be fine with a TAS of it, sure.

Enjoyed the run, voted Yes. Quick question: if this is a megawad, why is it just a branch rather than a separate game? Or is there something I'm not getting?

Ow! My sensitive dino-rabbit ears can't take it! God, please, make it stop! ... Anyway, I don't think this was a good game choice. It's just an auto-scroller with a short boss fight at the end... Don't take this the wrong way, dwango, but you could have chosen, like, any other Coleco game. Sorry, but it's a No from me. P.S. Yay, my name's been changed! Thanks, Staff!

Haven't watched the last hour or so of it yet, but what the heck, I'll just vote Yes anyway.

Yup, don't undestand a single thing I watched. Marvelous. Meh on the entertainment. So uh off topic from the TAS itself, the sudden change to EgixBacon, EgxHB?
You obviously haven't read this thread. I'll be using this name for any future submissions I make. @mklip2001: Thanks for the feedback! I know that the game's not exactly a spectacle to watch, but hey. Regarding the weapon usage, I don't see how I could improve on that. It's not lag that's a problem (the gameplay is virtually lag-free), it's that it's rarely possible to defeat an enemy without slowing down.

is this similar to the rayman isometric game somehow?
Hoodlums' Revenge, you mean? Yes, that game and the GBA Spyro games do appear to have a similar engine.

A point I forgot to make was that you wouldn't be able to, you know, read the forum, go on IRC, do research, stuff like that. Stuff that could actually be helpful, and inspiring.

Link to video Movie file Level 9 shouldn't take long at all, but 10 might take a while. I'll try to make a list of coordinates for that level to help me with routing it. Anyone got any feedback for me?
