This topic is for the purpose of discussing #2086: Bisqwit's NES Nuts & Milk in 15:47.87

I only watched level 1, but it made me wonder... so I tried TASing it myself. This seems to be 144 frames faster for level 1. Edit: I watched it completely now, and maybe because I already knew the game, it was entertaining to me. I don't know what other will think who aren't familiar with the game though... I don't think however that the quality is as good as it should be. Besides that improvement at level 1, I also spotted improvements for instance for level 6 and level 16. At level 6, you can pick up the fruit at the bottom right by jumping straight up, instead of jumping over the pit and back... when I completed the level, I also noticed that the spring jump at the end and the climbing wasn't optimized, so frames could be saved here also. At level 16, you only make a low jump at the spring at the bottom right... a high jump would have been a lot better and saves half a second easy. So I would vote yes to a TAS of this game (without skipping levels like the other movie obviously)... but since it can clearly be improved (I just tested some things I noticed... didn't do any real research or anything) I won't vote at this moment. Edit2: Ah, I forgot to mention. There were some levels were I really enjoyed your solution, such as level 17, 20, 32 and 44. Most of these involved going from one side of the screen to the other.

Hey! I'm not familiar with this game! And I must say, as awesome as this movie is, the entire game has a fucked-up premise. I mean, it's about two pink blobs with messed-up legs in a relationship built on gluttony, who build their houses in dangerous places near water, with the female just sitting at home and screaming "HelP" whenever her mate gets enough food, and the male one going out to gather food and destroying aircraft passing by for points, all while blue blobs who also have messed-up legs try to kill him for no reason.

So that's how Jared lost 300 pounds...

<quality> and <improvements>

Aww. I expected improvements to be found (because even movies like Lolo have been found improveable from time to time), but not that soon. Obvious delays in this movie are usually because of enemies being in awkward positions for the pink's blob's immobilizing landing.

I enjoyed watching it. Going to vote yes, but if improvements are possible, it would be nice to see them.

Hmmm, my Yes vote for this. I also spotted some possible improvements as Baxter spotted. But I think it's entertaining enough to earn my Yes.

Hehe, I enjoyed watching this. Very cute and well-made game. Level design like in 45 and your solutions/behavior like in 47 made this a fun movie to watch for a game I've never played.

Voting yes, I think it's entertaining. Would be nice if some of the improvements would be implemented though.

Feel free to obsolete this :) I'll probably redo it some day but I'm quite busy for a week now etc.

I vote yes... the game is interesting to me and the movie is clearly well played, even though it is apparently improvable. Now, it's certainly not spectacular, and there are quite a few rejected/canceled runs that I enjoyed more. I would venture that only a small segment of the general audience would even watch this. But to me, that doesn't matter. Why not publish runs that people enjoy?

I like this game. I like this TAS. Very close to perfect, I think. Obvious YES vote, but I can't vote yet. EDIT: Now I can vote, haha. Voted already.

Vote meh I think this game is good but so many levels and each level looks the same I haven't enough patience to watch it.sorry!!!
