So...one of my relatives gave me a pirated multigame cartridge which included this game. I played it, and got pissed off from the later parts of the game, and decided to TAS this as revenge practice getting back to TASing. WIP of the first two stages. I used a "bad" dump as the "normal" dump's second stage is unplayable. Oh, and I believe that my strategy of killing the bosses is the fastest, since it causes 2 damage/13 frames. This makes the battles somewhat less entertaining, however. Edit: Display script: Download yuuyuu3.lua

I'm at the later half of the game, and I'm wondering would this movie be accepted here? I'm worried because of this:

It's funny at first, but at the later bosses, it gets really tedious.

You can always do speed/entertainment tradeoffs.

You are CORRECT! I can't believe I haven't thought of that. >.> Thanks! I'll redo the later parts of the run now. :)

Ok, I've killed the second last boss in the game. Also, while redoing the boss battles, I found a really neat time saver that literally DESTROYS the later bosses very quickly. WIP Here. Oh, and I play those minigames at the end to level up my fighter enough to execute 4 special attacks.

Game completed! WIP Don't worry, I won't submit this yet since it's only a test run. Feedback would be nice, however.

I mentioned it in the first post. The "good" rom: "Yuu Yuu Hakusho - Makai no Tobira (J).gb" is probably a bad rom, since the construction site stage is unplayable. Also, if you were to cheat to bypass that part, I remember seeing glitched graphics at the station stage.

Here's an improvement of 233 frames by the second stage due to using the above trick on the first boss. Edit: The above resulted in terrible luck in the next stage for the conveyor belts. Looks like the first boss battle will remain the same as the test run. :(

Not sure if this would be of any help given the current route, but just posting it here.
