I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this game yet. I hate to start a request thread, but I'm wondering if anybody ever planed to play this. Although, people may have never even played this normally, so I don't know if it would ever get done. If you've never played it, it's a very awesome game. You fly around in a ship of your choice (though most times you're forced to take a certain one) in a Mario 64 type 3D environment, and you have to complete objectives in each level. There are also medals that can be won (bronze, silver, Gold) by accomplishing certain tasks, (time, number of enemies killed, accuracy) making a good separate run for all gold medals. I must warn you though, that it is a very hard game. I only ever got any golds (or won any levels for that matter) by using all of the cheat codes you could enter in the codes menu. So you should at least take a look at the game if you've never played it. It's a great way to spend hours and hours doing the same level over and over again. And as a tip for the enemy kills goal, little troopers on the ground count as enemies.

I was just going through my PMs recently laughing_gas, and saw your old message... I was wondering if you'd ever started it up, and I guess I have my answer;)

Oh no, he sent me one regarding a ROM version a long time ago that I still had sitting in my inbox. Never needed a reply;)

Old thread, I know, but has anyone thought of tasing this game? There's a run on sda, but is very suboptimal and contains a lot of deaths. Not sure if those are intentional though, gotta read the authors comments. This game has great potietial for a tas. Just seeing a no missed shots deathless run would interest me. I have never tases games like this before, but I might try.

You could make a quick testrun TAS to see how long a no-missed-shots deathless run would take, and familiarize yourself with how the ships control frame-by-frame at the same time. I would be interested in seeing that.
