This movie is only one player,. It means that it is not two players! And this movie is without death.
Emulator:FCE Ultra rerecording-0.98.28
A FC game.
DarkKobold Claimed for judging.
DarkKobold: Hi Soig, and welcome to TASVideos. This first submission of yours does not follow the rules and guidelines for the site
For reference, the Guidelines:
Don't get caught of being uneducated of the game you play. Search the Internet and find out everything that matters: tricks, routes, maps, charts, bugs and existing records.
And the Rules:
A speed-oriented movie must beat all existing records If your movie is going to beat something, be sure it beats it. If your tool-assisted movie is slower than the non-toolassisted world record of the game you play, your movie will almost certainly be rejected.
Try using the forums to post Works in progress, and get general help on your first TAS. Rejecting for not beating all known records.
Additionally, its been pretty well stated before that a single player run of this game doesn't offer much substantial over a 2 player run. Therefore, I think you should consider a different game.

Welcome, Soig, to TASVideos! Before submitting a movie, however, you should probably search the site's older movies too. Genisto played a 1-player run which was about 36 seconds faster than this run. This was played on the US version of the game, but I don't think that makes a difference. Also, Hongbaichaoren did a faster single-player run. I haven't watched the full run, but in the first few stages, there were some fairly unoptimized parts. In stage 1, it looks like you shoot a lot of extra shots once you have the flame shot, and that creates lag. Also, you grab the S weapon, which makes bosses have more health. In stage 2, there should be faster ways to position yourself to destroy the two tanks. Basically, this is ok, but this could be a lot better, as the low number of rerecords shows. I won't vote since I haven't watched the full movie, but based on this, my vote would be a No. However, I encourage you to try again and see what you can improve, once you research previous movies and optimize more. EDIT: I found the run by hongbaichaoren, once I spelled his name correctly.
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. From the submission comments:
Shoutouts and thanks to mklip2001 for arguably being the nicest and most supportive person on the forums.

Voting no due to the same reason as mentionned by mklip2001. Welcome to TASVideos Soig! And also, I had to remove "Soig" from the branch name, since this space is reserved for particular quests and/or restrictions.

I think the most direct comparison here should be Hongbaichaoren's movie on the basis that it's stated that death is not used in this run (it is in Genisto's run). That having been said, in the presence of a faster run under the same conditions, this can't be accepted.
