I would love to. But currently I have stalled my 2p run because of two things: 1. My run is not optimal. 2. I don't have much spare time. But I promise that I will make a 2p run! The question is. Would you guys want to see me finish the current run which is not super-good? I mean.. The weapon drops could be better planned etc. Do you find it entertaining enough already so that I could have a chanse of getting it published? Otherwise I won't feel it's worth to continue the current run. :D I am half through the game in the latest WIP found in the genesis thread. A thing that I wonder about though, did you vote YES AngerFist? Because currently there are only two votes. My no-vote and someones YES vote. :D

I'm affraid I'm going to give this run a NO. :( I base this on the following notes: * You don't use expert mode * You miss alot of shots against ALL bosses. * You can kill enemies to reduce lag * You can in some places take damage by enemy shots to reduce your health and thus, reduce time. * Plan weapon drops better. And don't take so many because they increase your health, and health is a BIG time waster at the end of every boss stage. * Your goal was to kill as many as possible in the flying stages. But I think you failed this goal as you could have killed alot more! * Bad boss-manipulation. Especially at the mushroom where you could have forced it to randomize three hearts on the sloot machine, thus giving you more time to kill it faster! The best thing I find in your run is the funny glitch where you make the guy die at the very same time you take the invincibility thing. :) Thumbs up for that one. Also I think you should have used two players instead of one player as you would have more firepower at the bosses and could preform alot more stunts etc. Even though you evaded enemies very good! There are some WIP's done by me and some other (which I can't remember who it was in the writing situation). Check those WIP's to get some more ideas. My run is not flawless either. Far from it. My goals was not set as I started the run. And it was mearly a test. Anyways. Hope you will continue to work on this great game with these notes in mind! Thanks!

Sounds interesting! 43k frames is a very good ammount of time saved. Wonder if it's possible to improve it further? I will check this run and give input when I got more time on my hands.

Yeah. I understand that already! But it would be cool to see if it can be exploited some how. Like move during the pause.

Saturn - And it's not possible to bomb-jump out of it either right? Like place a bomb that detonates the very same moment as you grab the item?

Take a look here http://www.zophar.net/sms-gg.html Perhaps Kega is a good one? I dunno really.

Seems like this thread went off-topic a bit right? There are threads for further discussing this. I'm sorry for starting a bad trend here. Really just wanted to express my gratitude for Saturns efforts in completing this run to bring us all a dropped jaw when it's finished! I was just thinking in funny lines.. Is there a way to exploit when getting an item, like sort of break loose from the paused interval when the song plays as you get the item? Could there be some benefits if it's possible? Like enemies disappearing and gravity being normalized? IF at all possible of course. :D

Not to be rude or anything like that. But if I had never played this game before I think those screenshots would have scarred me off thinking "This game doesn't looke funny at all"

You could add a couple of more words to creative and ambitious, Hopper! Words like: Daring, brave, crazy, cool, super, awesome, ludicrous, and last of all, STAR. ;) Edit: Oh and Hopper... Don't you feel it's like a paradox to say that this will be the most creative TAS in history so far and then saying it won't get a star before you even watched it? =D Sure.. I agree that one really should watch a run before judging really. But it sounds funny when you said that it "is one of the most creative and ambitious TAS projects I've heard of" and then not give it a star. :) Hehe.. Oh well... Perhaps I'm just bored and picky right now eh? Time to do something more serious. Like getting dressed and get to work.. Guess I could wait another hour or so. :D

Hmm... Is it possible to beat the bosses by hitting them physically with the scepter or what ever it is he's throwing bolts with?

I've never even tried to get up on the roof, so it was funny to see it done. Thanks for sharing!

I smell a star-vote heading your way when this is done Saturn. Keep it up. I almost get goose-bumps when thinking of the completed material. I will probably have to swallow my heart as my pulse will be so freakin' high that it will jump out my throat while watching the final. :D

Very interesting run if I may say so! A yes vote from my side. Good to see this game improved. I liked your headbanging part in the train level. :D

Seems like there is much un-used time there anyways. Can't you even take damage to grab the star ASAP even?

FODA! Woulden't it be faster to "camp" under the eal in "Will the eal come out and play" quest, instead of camping over it? Since the star seems to land "below" the eal? Edit: BTW! The run so far is VERY entertaining! Looking forward to the complete one! I will check out your WIP's as soon they drop in.
