This is a TAS of a simple puzzle game featuring the Gen 5 Pokémon Zorua and Zoroark. This is one of many browser games featured on the official Pokemon.com website around the mid 2000s to the late 2010s, starting from around mid-late Gen 4 to early Gen 7. They mostly consisted of puzzle games or simple arcade style ones. In this one in particular. You must complete a jigsaw puzzle across 2 difficulties. This movie completes the puzzles in both difficulties as fast as possible.
The first frame you click on a puzzle piece, you have to move it to a different position for the next frame so that it detects that you're actually moving it around. The frame after you can move it freely where you want to place it. The next frame after you must move it again to a different possition so that it detects it being placed the next frame for when you let go the mouse click. Then I wait 1 more frame after the piece is succesfully placed after letting go so that I can pick up a different puzzle piece. Rinse and repeat until you complete the puzzle.
I finish the game with the following scores: 133325 for Easy, 590433 for Challenging.

Run contains obvious superhuman play. While the stated goal is Maximum Score, it appears as though score is based on how much time is left. This suggests that the method of obtaining the highest score is to simply beat the game as fast as possible. As such, we don't actually need to branch this run as "maximum score;" because, in theory, any run that would be our baseline fastest would also obtain the highest scoree. If someone figured out a way to get a higher score than this run while taking longer to do so, that run could use the "maximum score" branch label; but that's all hypothetical anyway.
Accepting.
