Captain Novolin TAS by Patryk1023

Captain Novolin, diabetic, goes to save a mayor of city. Mayor is also a diabetic. His saved supply of glucose is only for 2 days. But the biggest problem here are the controls and a graphic copy 'n' paste.
Objectives to this TAS are:
  • Used SNES9X-rr 1.43
  • Aims for fastest time
  • Does not color a dinosaur
  • Answer every question

Level comments:

Level 1 (Breakfast/Morning Snack):
Easy level, lot of lags and here's the end of comment, because the makers of this "game" did almost the same all over.
Level 2 (Lunch/Afternoon Snack):
Also easy, more copy 'n' paste, more lags...
Level 3 (Dinner):
Another graphics, another enemies, more lags... ehh... boring...
Level 4 (Bedtime Snack):
Another graphics, the same enemies, more lags...
Level 5 (Breakfast/Morning Snack):
The same as level 3!
Level 6 (Lunch/Afternoon Snack):
Another graphics, more lags, boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooring...
Level 7 (Dinner):
Same as previous level.
Level 8 (Bedtime Snack):
Harder level, the same enemies, more lags, final boss (easy as pie).

Well... I've seen a lot of lags!

Why? The game is SO LAGGY!
In all whole TAS I've counted 10985 frames of lag! A LOT OF THEM!

Making of TAS:

Well, this wasn't too hard. 1 hour and it's ready. ^_^

Special Thanks to:

  • ToonLinkGaming for encode
  • NajgorszeRetroShity for showing that game on YouTube
  • All guys from this site for watching this. ^_^

Suggested Screenshot:

One of frames in boss. xD
Greetings...

I feel like the game's trolling me, which is very strange. No vote, that lag is unbearable. I blame the diabetes.

Terrible all around. What we have here is a case of Strut (or Sail) Right For Justice intermingled with quiz questions (and [submission 3167]they're not even in Chinese, or supported by enthusiastic clapping[/submission]), so it's a game which offers neither entertainment nor the room for technical merit. I vote no.

Couldn't finish watching. I'm reasonably sure you could improve this TAS by at least several seconds if you stomp all the enemies as soon as possible instead of jumping over them (less ugly sprites on screen = better chance of publication less lag). Voting no. (Funny sounds though.)

This... I don't even... Bad game choice, yet that doesn't stop me, but 121 rerecords for 7 minutes of game footage? That sounds like there is a lot of improvement anyhow. Sorry, voted no.

Not 121 but 171! <_> Who cares, bad game choice. Can be improved and I can do a better TAS of other game. Cancelled that, but encode will be, still on youtube.

I was first expecting that the submission summary was a joke. Too bad that it's a joke on the game player and not on me. This is not edutainment, it's not fun.

Wow, this is the WORST music I've ever seen in ANY game. It's a mess of two different songs being played at the same time.
My first language is not English, so please excuse myself if I write something wrong. I'll do my best do write as cleary as I can, so cope with me here =) (ノಥ益ಥ)ノ

This. I've never seen a run that does everything it can to make its viewers want to stop watching it. It's neither entertaining, nor educational, nor technically impressive, nor funny (except for the first stage, and the very end when you realize what you've just gone through).

- Run Right For Justice: check - Highly improbable enemy selection: check - Questionable collision detection: check - Loud metallic sound effect: check - Generic squishy sound effects: check - Ugly-ass music that sounds like it was played through an elephant's ass: check - Typical half-assed attempt at "edutainment": check Yep, game does everything wrong. Bad game choice, KILL IT WITH FI-YUH

This game is so bad its hard to believe it actually exist, that someone coded the game, and that some kids got that as gift or whatever, both were probly very sad afterward. Even flash games are often better nowaday.

I can't get over how stupid the premise is. DIABEETUS! Couldn't the city just send the homeless out there to deal with the food-aliens?
