Thanks for the fixup of the submission, andymac! In fact, thanks for the whole movie. It was mind-blowing how different it felt from the previous run, which was already one of my favorite movies at TASVideos. I especially liked seeing how much the route changed at places like Pinball Zone and Hotel Horror (40 Below Fridge was tougher to follow, but still enjoyable). I had a vague feeling like Topaz Passage wasn't as optimal as other parts of the run, but I can't point out any specific parts. This run still earns nothing shy of a Yes vote and a ton of respect. EDIT: It seems like you swim a lot faster in this movie than in the currently published run. How is that?

I haven't watched this yet, but I'm really looking forward to it. I'd love to see the Monsoon Jungle improvement worked in, if possible, even if it means delaying this submission a little while to get some parts synced up again.

Hello again Bhezt Rhy! Sorry it took so long for me to check out this WIP; I was busy, and then FCEUX kept crashing for some reason. Also, I wasn't able to load your old WIP on the Japanese version somehow, so I couldn't compare the two runs. That being said, nice job again! The damage-taking is much more complicated, and the routes are definitely harder to plan, so it doesn't look as optimal as before. However, I trust that you've been testing routes. The play is still quite impressive, since I know how many timed objects you're trying to dodge. (I hated the fireballs from the pits as a kid.) If you're only 35 frames slower than the Japanese version, and the Japanese version has much faster beginning dialogs, then that's a good sign! This run is definitely a little better. I'm really looking forward to Stage 4. I recall Stage 4 being really fun when I was a kid, though it certainly wasn't easy. EDIT: I definitely really liked riding the destroyed clock in 3-1 and hitting the frog away from the blocks in 3-4.

I'm going to have to go with the majority vote here and say this just isn't as entertaining as the original run. It does have some new bits, like the glitch to keep moving after the fight ends, and the Maximum Damage oddities, but the glitches are overused. The run generally feels more repetitive (such as using Sub-Zero twice in the first few fights). It's also not as polished, where more moves miss against the CPU. Also, it relies a lot more on cheap tactics (especially the Goro fight with the sword swinging). I'm voting No, as the current run is much more watchable.

Hey, just thought I'd check in. Is there any progress being made on this? It was looking really good.

woabclf, do you think you can make a small WIP to demonstrate a possible improvement in the King 2 tank fight? That may help clarify what you mean. Anyway, nice job again with improving this run. It looks very polished. Yes vote. Do you have any plans to improve the current Forte run?

Very nice! It's nice to see a different glitched route (sort of like the glitched run of Links Awakening vs. the DX version glitched run). Yes vote.

This is definitely more interesting than the latest Ehrgeiz submission, since the music changes, enemies are prominent, and the stage doesn't always look the exact same. I'd say this is a wonderful little bit of apparent luck manipulation that belongs on the site. However, I do not know if the current "ending" is considered valid by site rules. (For a good example of an odd glitch at the ending like that, adelikat's first submission of an Earnest Evans run had a game-ending glitch that was used in lieu of proceeding to the credits.) Is it possible to get a valid game ending by delaying the last action slightly?

Wow! This is the first time in a while where I can really tell the differences between the two runs. Congratulations on a nice improvement on a submission with a frame war. Certainly a Yes vote.

DarkKobold: I would not recommend having this obsolete Top Gear 2. Here are my reasons: 1. When Top Gear 2 obsoleted Top Gear, part of the reason was that the Top Gear run was quite outdated and had questionable goals by today's standards. These reasons don't apply here. 2. The run of Top Gear 2 is impressive because the car always has a low number of upgrades, yet it wins through manipulation and skill. In this run, the glitch is what is most impressive, because it allows the player to get such good upgrades very early. After that, the driving is very good too, but the skills used seem fairly different.

Sorry to bump this, but I watched this movie again, and it misses a region. Just after the fly-type boss which gives you the power to "smash the helmet of foe", you never enter the region which is down and left of it. I'm sorry I didn't catch this way earlier.

Hooray for the awesome encode! This run really does justice to the game, showing off a lot more action. The lag really is a shame, but I'm more than happy to give this a Yes vote in favor of obsoleting the 1-player run. Nice work!

Nice! You're working fast. Last time, I asked about sloped ground. I think that if you don't know by now, it would be a really good idea to determine whether jumping costs any time and whether your speed is affected by slopes. This would probably involve finding speed and position memory addresses. If you don't end up finding those, that's cool, but I figured it would be good to know. Also, how does lag work with this game? It seems like this run lags less than your last one because you kill more enemies. Anyway, comments: 2-1: * For that one tall wall, the jump over it looks better. However, would it save more time to jump off of the carrots? You'd collect carrots, but it might be worth it. * You walk over a number of breaking platforms over a sand pit. Would it be better to jump after walking on the first one (to possibly create less lag from the block breaking animations)? 2-2: * Nice job hitting that enemy's bullet out of the air before killing it! Maybe the bullet hit would make a good screenshot suggestion. 2-3: * At one of the first big pits, you seem to slow down a lot to avoid carrots. Is this worth it? * Great tornado jump! 2-4: * Really nice job with this stage. I like the quicksand walk (quite tough to do unassisted), and the boss fight looked better. Keep it up!

I wasn't all that bored by the beginning, and the ending was pretty cool. You can tell the game is really hard. I get the feeling that more optimization is possible (hopefully top speed can be maintained a little longer on some turns), but this is good enough for a first submission of the game. Yes.

Thanks for the run and the temporary encode, RingRush! I have to agree with Guybrush and Dada about the fact that the hover glitch gets repetitive. However, it still makes some things very impressive, especially in the later levels with lots of floating platforms. Also, there's something very amusingly Zen about Croc floating so confidently over the challenges. I'm also going with strong Meh.

Oh hi, welcome back! I'm glad to see this run is making progress! I watched your old WIP on the Japanese version and this latest WIP. Nice little improvements, especially in 1-1. It was also nice to see fewer carrots collected. I just have a question or two: * Does sloped ground affect your walking speed? * Do moving platforms or enemies affect your speed? At one point near the top of Stage 1-2, you walk on a clock enemy who's moving to the right, but you jump off it quickly. Would it be faster to stay on top of it for a few more frames?

I watched this, but I couldn't really follow what was going on. Even when I knew the basic ideas (in particular, thanks for the submission details, AKheon), the game felt like a fairly big blur. The quick "adventure-style" pointing in the office between scenes broke the pace, and I felt like I was mostly just watching a glitched Robocop drift left and right. Sorry, but I'm going to have to go with No. I'm sure other people appreciate the run, though.

Thanks for the answers, Soig! This sounds pretty good. As for another run, I think it would be cool to see a Lab/Fight run with 2 players. There's no way 2 players could be as fast as 1 player, because weapons are weakened in power with 2 players (especially Fang's D weapon), but 2 players could be pretty entertaining when showing a new route.

This was pretty nice! The damage on the two-ball boss of Stage 4 doesn't look good, but I approve of saving time. I'm glad to see the doctor used a different attack; somebody had mentioned in the comments of the last published run that a different attack should be used. Also, I liked most of your style in autoscrollers. My favorite was seeing you slide over pits in Stage 5 instead of jumping them all. Yes vote. However, I do have one question: when the doctor is producing little robots, you shoot him and the robots with a weapon which isn't D. You also use other weapons in the final fight against the alien cell. Why don't you just use the D weapon blasts the whole time?

I feel like this run is better on account of the Kanto drawing alone. However, that's not a good enough reason to vote Yes for this. This was pretty amazing, but it did drag a bit. I'm quite impressed with the art, actually.

I was actually pretty amused by this, thanks to the character's goofy animation. It also became a bit of a guessing game for me to guess which hallway would be manipulated to have the stairs. I liked the fights too, largely due to the silly attack animation. I figure this is good enough for a Yes vote. Also, nice pun, Nitsuja! I think it should get used in the published movie comments if this gets published. For example: "With the abundant luck manipulation in this movie, the game turns more into 'Ehrgeiz - God Bless the RNG' instead."

This wasn't quite as interesting as Episode 1, maybe because it felt like enemy groups got in the way a lot less often. Nevertheless, this still has good pacing and fair entertainment. It would be nice to see a later revision of this which takes into account the known improvements, but for now this is definitely good enough for a Yes vote. Good job!

It looks strange to see the marble dizzy so frequently, though it's also pretty impressive. Nice job with the improvement! You saved much more than I thought was still possible with this game.

Kuwaga: I don't know the stage numbers, but there are levels where ladders rise and fall, or where DK or DK Jr does things like flip switches or throw poison mushrooms. I imagine that if that timer is RNG-based, then RNG manipulation would help. However, I'm not a TASer, so I don't even know if RNG manipulation could be done quickly enough to justify the savings.

This wasn't particularly thrilling, but the improved glitchiness helped. This is at least as good to watch as the Genesis Terminator run, so I guess that makes this a Yes vote.
