In the past, I've seen Rygar speedruns mentioning that luck manipulation seemed really hard for getting mind points to use Power Up or Attack and Assail. I checked out the comments for the Rygar run at SDA, and supposedly items drop from every 10th enemy. I don't know if any Rygar TASers knew this before (supposedly it's old news), but if not, hopefully this could be useful. Of course, this brings up the question of whether it's worth spending time to kill 10 enemies out of the way to get a powerup...

Sorry for the bump, but the DailyMotion encode associated with this publication is for Sonic Advance 2, not Sonic 2 for the Genesis. Just an FYI.

Thanks mz! Runs of these games always look great since the moves look so difficult to perform in real time. This is also very pretty, even compared to the SNES original. Definite Yes vote.

Very nice job guys! The magic management is NUTS, especially when fighting the Wind boss. Out of curiosity, does this 255-mp trick mean that you have to avoid picking up magic pellets later in the run? (This trick seems to be based around always having a magic total which is remainder 3 mod 4, so I don't know if later pellets throw that off.)

Felipe, if you don't understand why the run was rejected, hopefully the comments in this discussion have mentioned why. See Derakon's questions at the beginning, for instance. You also had plenty of comments from arkiandruski that were unanswered in the old thread. If you don't understand how to get better, then I don't know what to suggest. However, there are some very good TASers on this site who I think would be happy to help you with technique. You should also probably look through the Why & How section of the site, if you haven't yet done that. Good luck on future runs!

Sorry Kregorio, but this just isn't as good as the currently published run. It seems like bosses are not manipulated, which is most apparent during the Seven Force fight of Stage 2 and the boss fights after the spaceship stage. I see that you had some entertaining bits (like shooting Black after the dice palace and writing TAS in Stage 3), but a 2-player run can do so much more to be entertaining. 1535 rerecords also doesn't really seem like enough rerecords to be able to do a game this big precisely. For these reasons, I vote No.

I actually liked this. It's short enough to not be too repetitive. I gave this a Yes vote, although I do think there are better games to run. Zene01, there should be lists of games posted in the forums. This might provide some good suggestions of what to play! I also have a couple ideas, though I don't know how entertaining they would be.

Good luck Hoandjzj! I am sorry I didn't get to watch any of this movie until recently, but I think you play very well. You might want to create a thread in the forums, or you can join a thread which already exists. (A quick search shows that there's a Super Metroid Redesign thread, for instance.)

At the time I posted my last post, I didn't see any other streaming options from the encodes. Everything else had to be downloaded and played, and my office computer can't handle them. However, now that I'm home, I'm checking this run out. (I'm still baffled why Viddler gives me this much trouble though.) As for the run itself. very spiffy! The action is very well-paced, and the game has an amusing sense of humor. Good job Cardboard!

Nice fixup of the previous submission! Knock-Out Nightmare seemed more fun to me this time compared to the previous run.

Thanks everyone for the encodes! Out of curiosity, I never can get the Viddler videos from this site to play smoothly on my computer. Some other sites which use Viddler work fine for me, but TASVideos stuff always ends up playing with an absurdly low framerate. Does anyone know why this could be? (This is also why I can't watch this movie until much later today.)

I like the second screenshot you took, Aqfaq. The autoscrollers in this game were pretty simple; I'm not sure there were better ways to make them interesting. However, the action moved at a pretty good pace, the side weapons were nice, and it was cool to see the first few bosses die so fast. This adds up to a mild Yes vote. Also, I like that one of the credits is for "Additional Fluff".

Just to put in my 2 cents, I would like to nominate the recent Mega Man 8 movie for a star. Even though it's longer than the other Mega Man games, it shows off a lot more than the others. It serves as a very good demonstration of how speed is not the only thing that matters in a TAS.

If the game is supposed to be this hard, why are all the Par scores so low? The graphics are pretty crappy, but once the more complicated levels rolled around, this was awesome. Also, this is a good bite-sized run. Yes vote.

Keep it up guys! By the way, just as a reminder when the time comes, I believe tmont found a small improvement in 6-1 or 6-2 involving manipulating one of the flying creatures to be closer to the vine, so that you grab it sooner. I figured it might be worth mentioning, since it got passed over before when the previous run was made.

Wow, the WIP already kicked tons of ass, and now it'll be even faster with a team effort? I'm really excited for this run! The damage taking looks fine to me... especially when getting the Windbane, it would be really annoying to wait to avoid damage. Also, since Scubed mentioned it, it's probably cool to leave the one-screen glitch from the Earth fight out, even though it's really funny :-) I probably don't have anything to add to this run that you guys wouldn't already have (i.e. routes and such) except for excitement. Good luck!

I really liked watching this. Apart from the bonuses at the ends of bosses, a lot of stuff looked pretty optimized, given that the game has fewer bugs than the NES version, though Bisqwit brings up some interesting points. Also, there's actually GAMEPLAY in this run. As for the Yellow Devil, I would imagine that the shot was fired from across the room because it would be laggier to hang out in the middle and jump the moving bits of the boss (and the pause glitch would take longer). It's unfortunate that the boss lags so much. On the other hand, the Wily 3 boss was all kinds of awesome. I also liked how Elec Beam was used in the first Cutman fight... is this something that is viable in the NES run? So, I like the idea of a low glitch run, and this is a fairly good way to do it (as Baxter mentioned). However, it's not a good idea to have too much redundancy between runs. Perhaps the best way to play this game is to show only the new content by playing Wily's Towers via SRAM. All in all, I'm middle of the road and I vote Meh.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know why this game and Mega Man & Bass both share Astro Man and Tengu Man? (However, the behavior of those two bosses is fairly different for each game...)

I think I agree with Brushy on this one. The records are pretty cool, but a playaround might be more entertaining. One area where you actually had time to play around in this run would be the three failed pole vaults... I don't know what's possible in the game, but it might be really funny after setting the world record to fly into the pole on the shortest height the game allows. Instead, you just fail to take off on the same height three times. While the graphics are a lot better than NES Track & Field, this also makes the game less funny. In fact, I got more bored with this game seeing the score screen and the gold medals. It's true that no event lasts as long as the archery in Track & Field, but a lot of the events are pretty Meh. Nice April Fool's Day submission, and Happy Hallowe'en to you too, but I don't think this is a good run to publish.

This ended up being pretty awesome! Just one note, though: the submission doesn't end up going to the credits. There seems to be more congratulation screens after the movie is done which require button presses.

Hmm, I finally made it through. It's nifty in theory how the game can get so glitched, but then the score-counting lasts forever. You didn't even get all 9's in the score at the end for all that trouble. Nice concept, and awesome April Fool's submission, but this is a No vote. EDIT: Maybe more people will be able to properly watch this if you can provide savestates which skip some of the major score counting.

I've been waiting a long time for this, though I didn't feel I could really comment in the thread since I wouldn't be any help. This is amazing. Wonderful job using special weapons to spice up the action (finally, something good arises out of those checkpoints with the forced refills) and turning a frustrating game into a visual treat. Thanks to Tornado Hold and Mega Ball primarily, this even outdoes X2 in playaround potential! Not just Yes vote: I nominate this for a Star and possibly the best PSX run of the year. This blows the SDA speedrun out of the water with class.
Used to be a frequent submissions commenter. My new computer has had some issues running emulators, so I've been here more sporadically. Still haven't gotten around to actually TASing yet... I was going to improve Kid Dracula for GB. It seems I was beaten to it, though, with a recent awesome run by Hetfield90 and StarvinStruthers. (http://tasvideos.org/2928M.html.) Thanks to goofydylan8 for running Gargoyle's Quest 2 because I mentioned the game! (http://tasvideos.org/2001M.html) Thanks to feos and MESHUGGAH for taking up runs of Duck Tales 2 because of my old signature! Thanks also to Samsara for finishing a Treasure Master run.

Shoot, I don't know if I actually liked this enough to be published, but it was pretty impressive once it got going. I won't vote. Originally, I was going to pretend to give you crap and say that you shouldn't have picked a regular pattern. Instead you could've gone for something like the Rule 110 cellular automaton. That way, you could put arbitrary programs into Tetris displays! Then again, you don't have space, nor would it be fun or easy... ok, I'm done being a computer science theory wanker.

Elmo is way too happy considering his world is flipping upside-down like that.

To be fair, April Fool's Day is a perfectly good day to shoot for goals like these... :-/ But yeah, no offense to you Sergio89, but this category of run isn't a good idea, as previously mentioned.
