I couldn't find a topic for this game so here's one.
I noticed this after it was mentioned in the GB/GBC Wishlist, and i've played through the game and I think it's a good candidate for a TAS.
Here's a WIP that goes up to a bit in the 4th level. You may notice that the first few levels are almost just run to the right, but as the game goes on it gets way more complicated and entertaining.
I'll be posting a YouTube video of the WIP soon, but anyways for now enjoy! :)
EDIT: Also another thing, everytime I work on this TAS, I stream it, as I have been doing from the beginning of this. So I plan on streaming all of the work being put into this TAS. You can find my stream here.
EDIT 2: Here is the YouTube Video.

I saved 3.47 seconds by eliminating the two throws in the first bowser fight, and just using one. Not sure how you guys overlooked this but anyways here it is.

This hack is great. The full game actually feels like SM64 2. But of course this run is just an any%, and doesn't show everything. I doubt a 151 stars will ever be made, seeing how long it takes to make a 120 star run + 31 more. See you in the year 3021 if you're expecting that. But anyways, I'm voting with a weak yes, for the amount of effort, and the game choice. Good job Balow bros. :)

You can't get morre than -75 falling speed, unless there is something I'm missing. But you can get a ton of upwards speed. It isn't very easy to explain how it works, but you'll see what I mean when I get back. Basically you can't just build it up over time, and you can't run or it resets, but you can punch to move and it doesn't reset.

I found a way to preserve Y speed in this game. It can be from a fall, or from jumping (and even lava bounces). I will post a video when I get back from my cottage, it is very interesting, although I'm not sure if it will be useful.

Is anyone up for a race of any of the following games in the near future?
- Sonic Advance
- Sonic Advance 2
- Sonic Advance 3
- Wario Land 4
- Super Mario Land 2
Count me in sometime soon for WL4. Just need to practice a bit. I'm not sure I would want to do full game though, maybe just a set of 4 levels or something.

Sorry for double posting...but I managed to go through the BitFS pipe with hyperspeed, and then move the camera all the way down to the first tier...very strange!
Video here.

I found the pipe in BitFS by BLJing and going out of bounds. Too bad the warp trigger isn't there. The thing I don't understand is how I got to the third tier of the level from BLJing at the second. Anyways, video here.
So at the end, is that thing that Mario ground-pounded on the pipe?
It's actually the bottom of the pipe, it can be accessed normally too, as shown in the current 0 star run.
