nymx, you're doing a good job at finding games made by aliens, for aliens.

Very cool nostalgia trip, and interesting how much there is to optimize!

I remember long ago seeing a game like 'rocket car' but it was turned into a shortened word like rkcr or something, and it had built in tas tools and path prediction. You had a physics enabled rectangle of a car with rocket thrusters, basically. I didn't write it down (or didn't tag it properly) and can't find it again.

Excellent mockery made of the game.

Are all solutions equally fast?

Boy is this game unpleasant to listen to, but the routing and near misses looks very fun.

Seems like TASing might actually be the optimal way to enjoy this game. Really cool concept, but doing it with 1 pulse would take ages, and even 2 looks like it'd be overwhelming for me. As a fan of puzzles, though, the routing problem of keeping 8 pulses alive and progressing toward completion looks interesting if you can pause and consider your options. Thanks for showing off all these neat little games!
Yeah, I wonder if you could make a thinky puzzle out of this basic premise. It reminds me a little bit of Railbound or Causality or Arctic, puzzle games revolving around multiple simultaneous actors that have to be managed. (Or I guess Lemmings and variants of that.)

Or in other words the game shipped with a TAS, but it optimized for turn count, and somyeol's TAS is optimized for real time. Funny to give it co-authorship though!

Such an alien game. Maybe humans will be ready to play it in another 34 years.

I love games like this, feels like an ancient ancestor of modern games like Crossyroads. Funny that level 10 isn't guaranteed to be human solvable. Just adds to replay value!

Are kids really expected to figure out what fraction those partially filled bars represent? This is cruel and unusual.

Oh, more improvements! I normally don't like non-1CC speedruns of arcade games, but given the game has no routing/resource management this cheeses and the fact that it's hilarious it saves time at all given the long death animation, I'll let this one slide.

Nice improvement, it's a lot faster and looks amusingly glitchy.

Wow, this looks very hard to optimize and completely superhuman.

The new penguin route is so entertaining, and a lot of new and unexpected improvements have been added to a route I thought was set in stone. Excellent work!

Didn't think I'd ever see a TAS of this game, what a treat! It's hilarious how easy TAS makes this game look.

Looks like a pretty hard dodging game when played at max speed! Too bad about the one wait, but it doesn't seem like there's much to manipulate here.

Yea I'm curious on how it would look. Unfotunately, my scarce free time tells me to just move on. This TAS was actually a side project to procrastinate other side project that was procrastinating three other main projects ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
LMAO, makes sense

It looks like you could swap the yellow belly and the gray crotch's colours and you'd be fixed again?

Nice TAS, very broken. It might be interesting to do a TAS on 1.3 as well to show more intended solutions being done quickly.
