I figured I've lurked here long enough that it's time I tried a TAS of my own. I think Death Duel should be a great TASable game. The object is to purchase weaponry to destroy each of nine enemies. Each enemy has various weakpoints, some of which make the battle easier but are not necessary (Blowing off a leg prevents them from moving, for example). I've spent a few hours getting used to everything and am pleased with my inital results. Here is the first battle! I'm pretty sure I'm killing him as quickly as possible. If I'm hesitating, it's because the enemy will perform a set action at certain frames based on what you are doing/where your cursor is. If I had fired a second missile sooner, he'd have ducked for cover behind the wall he starts behind and it would have taken longer overall. Note that the Missile fired into the wall in Stage 5 is intentional. It destroys blocks that would otherwise be in the way. Redid the Karl Borgas battle because I took unneccessary damage. EDIT: All stages complete! http://rapidshare.de/files/33533068/Trask-DeathDuel.gmv.html Total length: 8min 24.73s / 30284 frames / 1048 rerecords Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Looks alright to me. That is to say, knowing what little I know about the game, you seem to have TAS'ed the hell out of it. I'll be keeping an eye on this. Good show.

I'll be updating things as I get through them. Things will quite certainly be difficult to manage by the end, I'm sure, but so far it's pretty easy sailing. Times below are taken from the first frame the cursor appears to the first frame the final blow has landed. Shanox Moisail: Slain in 326 frames Forsal Jeraba: Slain in 224 frames Krax Xarkton: Slain in 158 frames Darrius Morb: Slain in 208 frames Borb Eubistapcia: Slain in 942 frames Karl Borgas: Slain in 264 frames Kuros Tizrak: Slain in 460 frames Yorgik Somtix: Slain in 166 frames Simas Julies: Slain in 204 frames
