I started a run on Mr.Nutz
ROM Version: Mr. Nutz (U)
Emulator: snes9x v1.51
mostly i was wondering...
- does anybody have some level-maps? Im sure it'd help in finding the best route
- are there any useful glitches/tricks? (cant even even a normal guide :P)
quick facts:
jumping does not influence Mr Nutz' speed if already at full speed (landing included)
throwing acorn slows Mr Nutz down while on the ground, mid-air it does not.
shooting delay midair = 8 frames (shoot at frame 1 and frame 9)
Mr Nutz' center is not the middle of his hitbox, he will (be) hit (by) enemies earlier while facing away... this does not work on solid obstacles (you cannot jump over larger gaps)
interesting memory addresses:
horizontal speed = 7E0058,2s (ranges from -48 to 48 while running)
x-coordinate = 7E005A,4u (smaller values are more towards the left)
y-coordinate = 7E18AE,2u (value 0 is top of map/level)
notes:
I'm not trying to minimize input (since it does not improve the speed)
progress: finished

Some points for improvement that I found after being published: {frames gained}
W2L2: downhill elevators (twice) departure moment could probably be better {0-10}
W2L2: cornerboost @ end of level {~5}
W2L3: face backwards when grabbing key {~5}
W3L1: face backwards at trigger (which leads to the attic) {~2}
W4L1: sequence-break-lavapit (2 bats to reach) can also be bugged into from beneath a few yards further {up to 3 seconds}
W4L3: get into the very top ceiling and zip through {up to 10 seconds}
W5L1: turn left, use the floating platforms and take teleport to swimmer-upgrade! {up to 15 seconds}
