Donkey Kong is a classic game that has been challenged plenty of times at this site, by many players. This competitive spirit has made for some "perfect" runs. Yet each time someone manages to squeeze just a bit more out of it.
This latest completion by Phil beats the previous movie by 11 frames by carefully optimizing Jumpman's movement pattern.
This movie has a full Atlas Map encode, which shows the standard encode overlaid on a zoomed out map.

Donkey Kong is a classic game that has been challenged plenty of times at this site, by many players. This competitive spirit has made for some "perfect" runs, yet each time someone manages to squeeze just a bit more out of it.
Unlike the other published Donkey Kong runs, this one opts to get all of the items on the 75m and 100m stages while completing the game as fast as possible.

Kung Fu (1985) is a simple beat-'em-up game in which the protagonist known as Thomas has 5 floors of bad guys and bosses to fight through in order to save Sylvia, his girlfriend. Unfortunately, as the final screen tells us, their happiness "does not continue long" — a common arcade trope to make the player beat the game in a second loop.
Phil bested the predecessor movie by over a second thanks to better luck manipulation and decreasing the amount of jumps.
This movie aims for lowest in-game time. The completion times for each floor are: 1552, 1558, 1552, 1545, 1550.
