Congrats on finishing the run!
You didn't jump while doing the second wrong warp in 2nd mansion. Is not jumping actually faster?

It's around 9:43 in my run.
Edit: Couldn't port the run to Bizhawk, probably because there is too much difference in lagging.
Edit2: Tried it on FCEUX. Jumping during that wrong warp saves around 7 frames. Probably not worth it to redo the second half of the movie for this.

Congrats.
Just curious, have you timed the alternate D ending? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65wiZVBzzNM)
I wonder if this can be done faster than H ending and serve as the any% route instead. If this the courtyard death scene skip still works on PSX version, alternate D ending will be faster for sure since you can't run pass Bobby anymore.

Not to be yet another "that guy", but you guys missed another one.
It's a complete tetralogy on NES, you know. :P
I'm not kidding. Since this game has the same engine as DKJr does, it's arguably a better DK game than DK3.

Too bad I didn't see this until now.
I have updated my proposed completionist route and will start working on the runs once the lua scripts are updated to include addresses for Japanese version. (I know there are now MUCH faster ways to do overworld warps in English version, but it's still a lot faster in Japanese version.)

I might be interested in working on the "S Ending" soon enough if this is well received. I assume the other categories aren't interesting enough to warrant separate runs?
H ending is technically any%, and S ending is technically 100%. All other endings are kinda arbitrary as a goal.
