Here's an improvment of M.C. Kids any% run.
786 frames (13.1 seconds) faster than the currently published run.
Most improvment came from using a trick that maintains your speed gained from a downhill, you see me jumping many times after a downhill.
There's also some other smaller improvments here and there.
  • Ignored semi-important goals again
  • No death
  • Took damage
  • No warps
  • Aimed for fastest time
  • Used FCEU 0.98.15
I'd like to thank all who motivated me.
I hope you like the run :)
EDIT: Forgot to thank JXQ, he is the one who noticed the glitch and made sure that it works. So thanks JXQ ;) (Guybrush JXQs himself...)

Truncated: Accepted for improving on a published movie.

Brushy: Reopening because I'm taking a long break from TASing and won't be improving this for a while.

adelikat: re-accepting.

Very nice movie, Guybrush. I watched and voted Yes on your previous movie, and this is clearly faster, so I vote Yes on this too. :) Great job as usual ;)

What a weird game... Sorta reminded me of SMB3. Anyway, I liked it. It was played really well and for some reason I want McDonald's now. Good job Guybrush! Yes vote from me.
Guybrush: "I'm selling these fine leather jackets." Wally: "Really?" Guybrush: "No. I 'm lying." Wally: "In that case, I don't want one!" Currently working on: Nothing at the moment.

I know this is already accepted, but wouldn't it be possible to improve the first lava level by throwing the first block onto the lava, grabbing the second and jumping off the first to get more distance? I didn't look very carefully at the game, so I didn't see anything else.

I never really gave runs of these games a full sit-through. I think I'll go ahead and rate it.
