Hello TASVideos! Here is an improvement of 298 frames over previous run of adelikat. The goal of the game is the same as his submission. Let me explain where there is noticeable improvement. (And I'm very weak in English. sorry!)
(The movie file and the video play are slightly different. But there is no difference in length.)

1-2

Using the carpet glitch+better boss fight, 84 frames saved.

6-1

I saved 9 frames using double jump.

6-2

Instead of bouncing the blocks, I threw to Birdo directly. Saved 7 frames.

6-3

Instead of shy guy, I crossed the swamp with a potion+better boss fight, 164 frames have been saved this world.

7-2

I lost 4 frames in Wart's room because the 256 frames rule was 4 frames slower than adelikat's run.
Nach: Very nice improvement, highly entertaining. Accepting.
fsvgm777: Processing.

Great run! Why can't Peach use the 1-1 strategy from the other runs, where Birdo is killed by a Shyguy instead of with eggs?
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.

It was slower than normal route. Because the princess is slow to pick up the stuff than other character, she can't use the through the floor glitch with the bomb. Therefore, I had to wait for the bomb to burst, which was about 170 frames slow than normal route. Thank you for your interest in my submissions. :)
