I know I know, I've put alot on my plate recently. Atlantis Squarepantis is easy for me to real life TAS (figure of speech), but a pain to actually TAS, I'll start it when I'm done with the verification movie. Then there's the KSSU TAS. I need MUGG to send me the movie files and I need to finish myself. Then we have Amy in Sonic 2. My dad wanted me to try something different for a while since I seemed to be obsessing a bit with it. Finally, we have this. Luckily, I'm making good progress on this. The puzzles are simple enough (for me, anyways), and it's also easy to optimize, so I'm confirming that this is the one that I'm finishing first. I'll post up my WIP (it'll probably be the only one before test runs) this afternoon, when I get home. I made this topic at school :P
I quit TASing.

A few cool facts about the physics: *Rolling as soon as you start moving instantly takes you to top speed, which is still slow, but top speed nonetheless. This trick removes the worry about acceleration. *Rolling past someone makes it so you can't press the B button to talk to them, but you can press the B button to enter other areas. This trick allowed me to auto fire B to enter areas as quickly as possible without accidently talking to people. *There are some people who you have to talk to, and with the delay from rolling, you lose a few frames to start the conversation, causing a problem if you decided to use they "Rolling Start" trick. Therefore, you have to use normal acceleration to start the conversation earlier (I need to optimize this --'). However, there are some people who automatically trigger conersations when you approach them (only people related to the main quest, of course) even if you roll at them, so don't worry.

You encoded my WIP? Thanks! Also, I'm done with super power island and just have mythology left to go, then I'll have a tiny bit of optimization to do (easy :) ) and then I'll put up the full run!
