I'm having trouble adapting to this new forum format and remembering a 12 character password, having said that...
I have to abstain my vote unless my question is answered: at level 4, the boat level, did you test for possible shortcuts on waterfalls? I had this game and I'm pretty sure there was a shortcut on one of the 3 first waterfalls.

Yes vote for the improvement
But it says there at the ending screen
"Now can you get to the band?"
100% version wanted =D
With the 100% the visiting of stages should be mostly the same, since on burger world you have to eat the rotten burger, then go to the hospital to get the scissors and get healed
In the end, there is a little more security, not sure how much more HP is needed for this part
I think there is something about a cat too...

Some games I find the idea of a TAS interesting:
Buzz Bombers: going 20 stages activates all cutscenes if I'm not mistaken
Dreadnaught Factor: I think it should go level 7 (the highest) and defeating each different ship one time
Atlantis: some really interesting glitches on day 11
Masters of the Universe - The Power of He-Man: some god challenging skills for later stages needed, I believe
Tron Deadly Discs: showing off the orange guys after 1M the fastest possible
Happy Trails: I don't even know if there is a real end to this, 16 levels make it go to small boards but it keeps getting harder and harder, maybe it should show when it starts repeating money bag colors?.. but I really don't think it's infinite
Shark! Shark!: how fast can one fish grow?
Diner: some people call it Burgertime 2

This game was my last cartridge before moving on to the world of Sega Saturn,.... it was kind of a bet from my dad, if Tectoy couldn't make a good game, then the 16 bit era would die and everything would be all 3D and movie-like in the world of video games.
But after weighting the whole console collection I had, I was really more addicted to Master System and Mega Drive,..... and even if this is a "shitty game", I wanted to at least finish all my games, ... I wanted to see all their endings, .. and then I started replaying everything, that was in 1997, ..
Well, this game, Ferias Frustradas do Pica-Pau, it has easy and hard mode, but this is a court session kind of thing, because:
1- the hard mode has more stages, but they don't add much to the run, as there are more slow and weird scenes like the dark one where just Woody's eyes appear, ..
2- you get to play against all bosses but the difficult don't change much for them,.... Buzz/Zeca is much different though, it kinda remind me of Gargamel from the Smurfs game
3- the collision detection go to hell hard, but... I guess a TASer would manage to fight and win, huh =)
4- there is a bonus stage, but I don't think it has any purpose except 1-ups,... which are not needed for a speedrun
But .... I voted no, and.. I'm all up to seeing the hard mode done, as it adds much to the nostalgia to me ... since my great finishing all games I had thing ..... was on hard mode
Also I think the boat stage has a shortcut in a waterfall that wasn't used in this easy mode run so I have to vote no anyway because of that (too)

I had the most fun with that fire arrow stage... XDDD but still the whole video is Meh, too long for some things to happen, is it or is it not the highest score possible, in the end? =\

Well, I never knew this game had teleport inside tunnels, a stealth mode, and a flamethrower that changes our X position Õ_o I feel like the Genie in Aladdin right now "So dontcha sit there slack-jawed, buggy-eyed" 8D
Sure Yes Vote from me \o\
EDIT
(Oh, and very few people notice the title is Alien³ because the ³ means the alien is incubated, or maybe it's just in portuguese the ² is "square" and ³ is "cube"...) >_>

Alys in revisiting Piata and the events there, should be like:
"Zio? Oh yeah I heard about him. I actually talked with him some seconds ago. Chaz was being a slow ass, so I had to shield him, and then I died. Yeah right, happens every time, I'm used to it by now.. well, we have to teleport do Dezolis now, excuse us"
I laughed a lot thinking about this while watching... xP
And Yes vote, of course =D

I'm voting a Weak Yes, it's nearly perfect, but this could be more complete if you would complete also one time each of the bonus levels that you enter with the rainbow logos =P

Seeing this run, I'm sure it is faster than mine in all aspects, and the subweapon is much more optimized too, .... I didn't even know there was a stake item inside a wall on level 4-1 .... O.o
I was going to revise all my run but waited back there in 2011 because there was another guy with a WIP, which is klmz, ... I wonder if he saw this.. =D
Hm..... I'll see if this final boss fight is really faster than mine when I have time, anyway ... XD
Thank you.
Challenger gave me this Klmz's wip, but I had found all tricks before than I watch this.
Oh, you know for have a good comparison of the last boss fight, it's difficult, because DEGA don't emulate correctly and RNG can be a little different, but real problem is for the first phase because RNG is predefined by the frame before enter in the boss room, when you start this fight with 20" or 30" delayed... It's dead, you have maybe a good RNG but time delay that cannot be made up!
I congratulate your effort to make a comparison, but I think it's time lost, because DEGA isn't BIZHAWK!
If you are interesting to make this in pacifist mode with me, I guest you and you are welcome! ;)
Hmm.... never thought of playing this game in a pacifist way, let me think about it, .. maybe I should see these WIPs to get the grip of it, which version of BizHawk is being used? I probably have to install it =P
EDIT: actually, I didn't see it before that there are youtube videos already =O
The idea of a video where we attack to land and not to hit enemies is indeed very funny... XD

Other than that, I vote Yes =P

2 - You didn't COMPLETE this game, because there are other races on Queen and King League, respectively.
I'm cool if he decides to launch the releases in episodes kinda like Wolfenstein 3D ^^

Aside from the freezing slow 50hz (I grew up playing the 60hz usual for all brazilians) @_@ .... I see this as a good improvement, those parts near the end are tricks I already knew but had problems putting them together, in a TAS they're very well used, ... Yes vote ^_^

Are you sure those hordes of enemies are not lagging anything? Anyway, I voted Yes on this one and the older version too, can't complain if it's going faster, and it's nice to see the triple direction glitch in the movie =)

I believe there is a way to kill the earth elemental boss even faster than using blue flame swords, if you manage to get 3 green and 3 red potions, you can kill him without waiting the routine, just three plain explosions.

Actually there are three difficulties:
- Easy
Start with 8 web cartridges.. Enemies have less HP, defeat only 2 enemies to pass scenes 7 and 8, the cavern only has Oc and Liz
- Difficult
Start with 6 web cartridges.. Enemies have normal HP, defeat 3 enemies to pass scenes 7 and 8, the cavern has Electro, Hobgoblin, Venom and you can turn off the lights on scene 2
- Nightmare
Start with 4 web cartridges.. Enemies have more HP, defeat 4 enemies to pass scenes 7 and 8, the cavern has all bosses, you can turn the lights off on scene 2 too, ..and Venom might pop up on random selected scenes, oh and you can play Spidey Pac Man on a Game Gear :v oh and one more thing, you can get the symbiote on your body, it's a detour (too).
Voted No, since Easy is too easy and not challenging to a TAS.

This is an easy Yes vote and reminded me of the reason I love TASes ^__^
EDIT: oh wait, there is more, this is the right way of being Schwartzenegger the main character, always looking a little to the side with an angry face and shooting near impossible to hit shots, you even shot a wall and hear someone die on one ocasion, and that level ending with dog barking, ..... this is epic =D
