So, reading through, has an entertaining speed run for this game concluded?

You guys ever hear of this game? I couldn't track it down on cartridge after I played it so many years back until just recently. And I popped it open and played, lots of fun :) Fluid animations and control scheme, and the music was pretty moody. (go figure, Disney-oriented game.) Wondered if any speed runners have considered it at all, or have even heard/played it.

Priceless outtake :) Excellent execution. And that floor bug was really neat too. I haven't played this game myself, so I don't know what's a bug or what's not, but I'm sure that was beyond the scope of the programmers ;)

I vote yes -- simply because it's an improvement over the last. Who cares about what's coming up next? Let everyone here enjoy this 4:00 run till the next arrival. EDIT: Rather, I would, but voting privaleges don't exist for my account :\

Excellent, an old favorite of mine. This totally obliterates the Commodore 64 version of the speed run I've seen. (but of course, that run was done in real-time...) Nonetheless, excellent work. This game is really over the brim of the glass with bugs. Oddly enough, all systems that this game was designed for ran the same in-game script, so the bugs might be prominent in all versions... (though I could be wrong, just getting hopeful here.) That's one heck of a save by the cutscene, I was concerned about that one. Also, about the earlier part where you cut down on the kid usage, excellent time savings. You certainly improved the run, and it's still visually entertaining. Glad it got published :) I honestly fail to see how this video can improve... But that's what I thought when I saw your previous run, so that may not be entirely true! And yes, the game's music is crazy :D

Just...... wow. Amazing. I've NEVER seen a run such as this, and have always wanted to. God, you must have way too much fun juggling enemies and eggs (my favorite parts ^^) I'm not sure how I should appreciate this speed run, it's so damn grand. It *deserves* the recommendation. :) And this thing is really 98 minutes and some change, huh? Didn't seem like it. I was having a blast watching it. Repeatedly. It's not so much that I think it's a fast run, but it's definately more about what you did while you were running it. Just... wow.

I remember playing through this once. It was *very* frustrating.

Interesting method... A bit fast to be enjoyable too, it takes more time to set it up... could see why you didn't submit it :)

Wow. Thanks for the suggestions :) And in the meantime, I should also thank Quietust for the excellent Sonic 2 speedrun. I've adapted to a few of the tricks you used, but it's really hard when playing at normal speed :) ...but I'm the type of person that could never make a speed run, cause I wouldn't have the patience of performing them at 6% or whatever. I only got the passion of watching them :D EDIT: watched MMX, MMX2, and Sparkster to my collection. Excellent!

Woo! Just watched all the Sonic game speedruns. Excellent :D Can't wait to see what you guys come up with next. I'm a fan of games that are played ungodly fast, and Sonic was designed for "whoa what was that"... any other speed run recommendations? Oh yeah, and... Hi, I'm new :P
