A2600 Raiders of the Lost Ark by Rno5951 in 01:02.447


 Watch
Raiders of the Lost Ark is an adventure game for the Atari 2600 that is based on the movie of the same name. Loosely following the plot of the movie, the objective of the game is to find the Ark of the Covenant. There are no Nazis out to look for the Ark, only regular thieves that want to hinder Indiana Jones's progress. This is one of a couple of Atari 2600 games that require the use of two controllers, one to move Jones and another to select items.
Rno5951 improves the previous run by 00:32.108 thanks to a clipping glitch that allows the player to reach the areas faster as well as better optimization. For more information about the glitches used, reading the author's notes is recommended.

This is one of a couple of Atari 2600 games that require the use of two controllers, one to move Jones and another to select items.
For this run, Rno5951 chooses to beat the game in a way that would result in the fastest record time under RTA conditions (i.e. the timer starts when the gameplay starts). To do this, they start the game at a time when the RNG spawns items in the most ideal locations. For more details, you can read the author's notes.
The baseline tab shows the default movie beating the game as fast as possible without any special conditions.
