Having just finished a TAS of the original Shrek 2 GBA, I thought I'd make a topic for one of the sequels. This game is generally pretty similar mechanics-wise to the original. Puss in Boots has a new down-attack and can double jump. Unlike the original, there are no multi-character levels. Instead of needing to spend time pressing select to pick up items, items like keys are picked up automatically. Someone else already uploaded a video-only TAS of the game that completes the game in 14:57.83: Link to video Having done my own TAS, I think there are a few seconds of time save from improved movement (for example: sword slash landings and less bonking on corners), but it's generally a good TAS and a solid foundation. Edit: I uploaded a bk2 of a real-time speedrun from a few months ago; it's almost twice as long as the TAS: BfM_001 (1 December 2022, 28:59.97)

The author of the above video posted their TAS to user files here: User movie #638288381497727930 (15:10.80 in TAS time). I'm hoping to try and improve this in the near-ish future. I will probably aim to be a coauthor on this movie, since having this existing movie to build off of will probably be much easier than routing every level entirely from scratch.
