Submission Text Full Submission Page Publication Page
This submission finishes the previously published [2768] NES The Great Waldo Search by Jigwally in 00:52.41 with 34 frames (better RNG) + 1 frame by not skipping the final countdown.

Objectives

  • Aims for shortest input (append 1 frame of "B" to skip the score countdown to compare it with previous movie).

Comparing with previous published movie

  • Level 1 - 8 frames faster
  • Level 2 - 1 frame faster
  • Level 3 - 22 frames faster
  • Level 5 - 3 frames faster
See you until my next TAS =)

Well...it's an improvement. I didn't find it entertaining, but I'm glad you took the time to optimize this short game anyway.

3 "difficulties" (more like game modes): Normal: clock power up to get more time (this TAS) Expert: same without the clock power up Land of Waldos: the final level of this TAS, you can play that stage as long as you still have time.
