Hey TASVideos staff, please delete this if you can.
Please.
EDIT (about 5.5 hours after submission time):
I've been reading what everybody has been saying, and now I see that yes, it can be done faster, and I just didn't want anybody else to do a TAS of this "first" so I kinda rushed this one. I will make a better one with some new tricks I learned from
here.
This was also my first completed TAS, so I guess you could expect that.
Thanks for the help people, and I kinda admit I rushed this.
I will try better next time.
This was also made with TAStudio...
2 Player Co-op Quest is a ROM Hack of Super Mario World were the 2nd player controls the enemies.
This TAS Completes all the normal levels, and not the bonus ones. The bonus levels are not needed.
Game objectives
- Emulator used: BizHawk 2.3.1
- completes all normal levels
- 2 players
I first found out about this ROM hack when I stumbled upon it when it showed up in my recommended section on YouTube (thanks yt), and I thought it was very interesting, so I played this hack with my brother. It was really fun, and so I thought I would make a TAS on it.
This improves on my previous
submission of this game by a whole 13 seconds just by using P-Speed
(in this game, you have to hold X to run, not Y. Also, shout-out to EZGames69 for pointing out that I need to use P-Speed. After that, it took me 5 seconds to realize I held down the wrong button in the previous TAS.)
Well... level 1! (It's literally called that in the game)
This stage was not to interesting except for the fact that P2 makes all the enemies fly or move 'outta the way!
I thought it would be cool to do something like that where P1 (mario) tries to beat the level as fast as possible while P2 makes the enemies get 'outta the way for P1!
In this level, it's quite easy to gain P-Speed by running on the ground in certain parts of the level (mainly before the checkpoint).
Watery Ruins
This stage is somewhat the same as the first one.
I tried to gain P-Speed as much as possible (well, I did in most of the levels) but this level was actually easier to do than level 1 because of how much ground there is.
(controlling the spike balls is legit the best thing ever)
Forest 'n such (yep, that's what it's called.)
There was so many enemies to play around with in this level, like the wigglers. I found them the most hardest to control though, because the move sooo slowly.
Anyways, just like the previous levels, P2 tries to move the enemies out of the way, then screws around with the wigglers.
P-Speed is also very easy to gain in this level.
Underground Moveage
This level...is an autoscroller that Mario controls.
...Yep. That's pretty awesome.
This level is pretty much the same as the previous TAS that I made, but with some improvements.
The enemy glitch in this level is that if you get close enough with the yellow "border" (?) and then press up on P2's controller, you can glitch them into the roof. It's pretty damn amusing.
There are some un-avoidable waiting sections in this level, which you just can't get past.
(P-Speed was the easiest to get in the level because you have a "border" around you and you always stay in the middle so running for enough frames gives you P-Speed)
Some castle (again, it's called that in the game)
This level is pretty much the last level of the "normal" levels.
I really like this level because of the mini-thwomp enemies, which are the best things to screw around with.
The boss fight was pretty hard to do. The only reason why I wait for the platform is because you just can't knock Lemmy into the lava on time. (Believe me, I tried. That's also were like a quarter of the re-records come from).
In the previous TAS, I thought you couldn't get past some waiting sections in this level, but you can, by spin-jumping on the saws. I'm really stupid.
This is my first ever (real/optimized) submission to TASVideos. So I would just like to say, Hello!!
I understand if this gets rejected.
I thought this game would be a good first submission because it is short and sweet, and pretty easy to play.
I am working on TAS that beats the normal levels and the bonus ones, so stay tuned for that.
I would just like to say, I only got into TASing because of sonicpacker's SM64 TAS. When I first saw it, I thought, "Hey, I could do this too!"...and I did. I just don't share that TAS because it's really crappy.
Anyways, after I found out about TASing, I've been really wanting to submit one to the site, but pretty much every single game has been done.
So when I saw that this hasn't been done yet, I jumped right on it.
Special Thanks
BrunoValads and Amaraticando - SMW-BizHawk lua script
EZGames69 - pointing out that I didn't use P-Speed in my previous run (I'm an idiot, lol)
And that's all!
Thanks for reading!
(Compared to 257 IGT on Dark's)
That Chuck I was on about in Level 2:
(Seconds before Spikestuff crashed BizHawk and forgot to save)
Please take your time in TASing.
