In this odd but colorful game for the 32X, our hero Tempo, armed with killer dance moves and a limited ability to fly, must defend the Planet Rhythmia from the evil King Dirge who is trying to sap the planet of its rhythm.

This movie is a 3 second improvement in the "pool" room of the last level. The first 14 minutes of the movie are identical.

Adventure is a first-party game released in 1979 for the Atari 2600. The goal of the game is to find the enchanted chalice and return it to the gold castle while avoiding the three dragons guarding it.

Katistrofic2 improves his previous TAS by 2.6 seconds thanks to a new time-saving key juggling technique.

Barnstorming is an Atari 2600 video game designed by Steve Cartwright and published by Activision in 1982. The goal of the game is to fly through barns, while avoiding windmills and birds. There are four difficulties, going from 10 to 25 barns; this run uses the easiest one.

This run by Alyosha exploits a glitch that allows Master Chief to effectively phase through walls, allowing him to reach the endgame boss before you even know what's happening.

Tomarc the Barbarian is an action game where Tomarc the Barbarian must rescue Senta from a cave she got herself lost in. Senta also managed to get herself kidnapped and is imprisoned in a cage that can be opened by Tomarc's sword. Unfortunately, Tomarc lost his sword in the same cave, so he must now find his sword and rescue Senta before the cave bats eat her alive. Special to this Atari 2600 is the ability to switch between two characters to control, Tomarc and Senta, and both characters continue to be affected by their environments even when you're not controlling them. While Tomarc is used to find the sword to rescue Senta, Senta herself is controlled to fend off the bats that are trying to kill her.

DrD2k9 decides not to go through all that trouble in this run by using a good amount of RNG manipulation to get a cave layout that requires the least amount of movement needed and controlling only Tormac to get the sword and rescue Senta as fast as possible.

As a covered wagon party of pioneers, you head out west from Independence, Missouri to the Willamette River and valley in Oregon. You first must stock up on provisions, and then, while travelling, make decisions such as when to rest, how much food to eat, etc. The Oregon Trail incorporates simulation elements and planning ahead, along with discovery and adventure, as well as mini-game-like activities (hunting and floating down the Dalles River).

Thanks to good management of the resources, adelikat manages to reach the Willamette River and valley in 8 minutes and 24.63 seconds.

This is the first ever Apple II publication on this site.

Together, they manage a small martial arts training school, teaching their students in self-defense. One day, Billy's girlfriend, Marian, is kidnapped off the street by the "Black Warriors", a savage street gang led by a man named Willy.

sugarfoot improves his previous TAS by 33.78 seconds, mainly thanks to improved combo sequences. Please read the author's comments for more details.

We also have TASes of the NES port and the unlicensed Genesis port.

Bio Menace is a 2D, side-scrolling, platform game developed and published by Apogee Software for DOS.

The CIA has learned that gigantic mutants are wreaking havoc in Metro City and their sources say that a scientist calling himself Dr. Mangle is responsible. Snake Logan, the CIA's top secret agent, is sent on a dangerous recon mission, only to have his plane shot down, forcing Snake to walk the streets and kill mutants.

In this run, slamo takes control of Snake as he blasts through mutants and monsters, letting nothing (not even death) slow down his mission.

Assassin's Creed: Altaïr's Chronicles is the first spin-off game in the Assassin's Creed franchise, and is a prequel to the first game. Altaïr is tasked with finding The Chalice, an artifact that is said to be able to unite all factions and end the Crusades.

Unlike the main games in the franchise, Altaïr's Chronicles is not an open-world game but rather a hybrid action-platformer - some sections play similarly to games in the Prince of Persia series where the player must do careful platforming and deal with traps and hazards, while other sections are more like the main games and feature fighting, stealth, and assassinations.

xy2_ abuses several out-of-bounds glitches to end levels extremely quickly, and wields the particularly mighty Wooden Crate to dispatch foes in record time.

Drakodan completes the "Birth" campaign in record time.

Pink Panther: Pinkadelic Pursuit stars the legendary hip feline in a platforming adventure to get back home after a misguided rocket interrupts his fishing and sends him to space. Despite having the same name, this game is completely different from the PSX version.

wesen runs, jumps, and swaggers his way through the game in record time.

wesen also has a TAS for the PSX version of the game.

The Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Night is the second game in the Legend of Spyro trilogy, and features a slick combo system and Metroidvania inspired level design.

In this run, arandomgameTASer takes full advantage of Spyro's abilities, beating down bosses and finishing the game as quickly as possible. Additionally, this run is an improvement of over 2 minutes over its predecessor through new routing and higher optimization.

Baby Felix Halloween is an action-platformer released only in Europe in 2001. Felix the Cat's friends have been captured inside a haunted house, and Baby Felix and Kitty must rescue them by traversing five themed worlds.

The game is notable for its music, made by the prolific game composer Alberto Jose González, who created the soundtracks for games like Asterix and The Smurfs all the way up to modern games like Cut the Rope.

This run by qqwref runs and shoots their way through the game to beat it in under 13 and a half minutes.

Aside from the logo and some of the fighters, Mortal Kombat 4 for Game Boy Color has nothing to do with the original MK4.

Enjoy the hilarious badness of this game as AKheon beats down every fighter to finish in the fastest time possible.

Noddy and the Birthday Party is a platform game, developed by Tiertex Design Studios and published by BBC Multimedia, which was released in Europe in 2000. The game features the British children's literature and television character Noddy, and is set in Toyland, the fictional universe in which he resides. In the game's plot, Noddy has to prepare a birthday party for his friend Big-Ears. His tasks include gathering various items, such as party invitations, balloons, and candles.

This game was critically panned for its awkward controls, but that's a good thing in the eyes of a TASer. This run takes advantage of the game's extremely poor physics and level design and beats it in record time; Ready Steady Yeti prepares the whole birthday party in just seven and a half minutes.

This is a 2-D fighting game based on the Shrek movies. In this run, Strife uses Princess Fiona —along with AI and RNG manipulation— to quickly defeat the other fighters.

Spider-Man is based on the 2002 movie of the same name, featuring Tobey Maguire as Peter Parker.

The game is a beat-em-up that expands the plot of the film, featuring villains that didn't make it into the movie. The player navigates the game by web slinging, zipping, and crawling along walls, only stopping long enough to beat up baddies and collect upgrades.

Natetheman223 employs laser-accurate web skills and a trick that lets Spiderman pass through solid walls with the help of unwitting mooks to complete the game in record time.

Completing this game on the "Hero" difficulty or higher unlocks a New Game+ mode that lets the player take control of Harry Osborn (voiced by Josh Keaton) in the Green Goblin suit, complete with the Glider and Goblin Bombs! This New Game+ mode features a new storyline where Harry must stop a "mysterious" adversary, who just happens to sound a lot like Willem Dafoe, in another Green Goblin suit.

This run is a 2 minute and 33 second improvement over the previous movie.

This run uses a special Green Goblin suit from the Alex Ross comics. This suit normally isn't available on the Gamecube version, however it can be rendered usable through use of an Action Replay code.

Tony Hawk's Underground 2 is the sixth installment in Neversoft's Tony Hawk's series and is the sequel to Underground. The gameplay in Underground 2 is similar to that of previous Tony Hawk games: the player skates around in a 3D environment modeled after various cities and attempts to complete various goals. Most goals involve skating on or over various objects or performing combos. Scores are calculated by adding the sum of the point value of each trick strung together in a combo and then multiplying by the number of tricks in the combo.

In this run, Fog skates, grinds, and flies through the air to complete this game as fast as possible on the easiest difficulty using multiple glitches along the way. For more information on the tricks and glitches used in this run, check out the submission text.

YamiAmarillo beats this quirky game in record time, via the use of various tricks and glitches, as well as using the easiest difficulty to minimize the in-between level mini-games.

Home Alone is a video game that's very loosely based on the movie of the same name. While the movie has Kevin McCallister defending his house from the Wet Bandits, in this game, he must avoid them from capturing him while saving the other houses in the neighborhood from being totally robbed and damaged by them. And it appears his neighbors have some really weird stuff in their houses, yet Kevin, Harry, and Marv can break into them no matter what security systems they have.

OtakuTAS saves 9 frames over the previous run by choosing the Beginner difficulty instead of the Expert difficulty, which made the robot required for the screen wrap glitch appear earlier. It also cuts down the real-time gameplay shown by 20 minutes.

Midnight Resistance (1990) was a rather lackluster attempt at making a Contra-esque game, ported later to Sega Genesis. Still, it manages to preserve some of the genre's core values, and therefore is well suited for a TAS.

Selected quotes from the author:
Story: an evil enemy kidnaps the hero's family. The hero is pleased, as this gives him a reason to wear a tight sleeveless shirt and blow up stuff with big guns.

Pocket Monster II is an unlicensed game made by DVS Electronic Co. for the Sega Genesis. It stars Pikachu as he fights other Pocket Monsters, or Pokémon, across four stages using Poké Balls and melee attacks. While some of the graphics are taken from other games, the music tracks are original and adapted from the Pokémon TV show's songs.

The author, dekutony, abuses several minor glitches throughout the run to beat the game in under four minutes.

The Lion King is about a lion who becomes king. It takes about 11.5 minutes and is mostly paperwork, but it does involve some prancing around the Pride Lands.

In this run, EZGames69 & Tompa improve the previous record by 02:33.88 minutes.

We have a TAS of the SNES port here.

Home Alone is a game loosely based on the movie where Kevin McCallister must avoid and stop the Wet Bandits from capturing him after being left home alone. While the movie has him planning everything out and playing Harry and Marv like a fiddle, the game has you going through a weirdo house filled with traps and hazards that can stop you for a moment.

ShesChardcore improves on her previous run by 6.5 seconds by choosing the Beginner difficulty instead of Expert and finding a better spot to camp at, a table with an annoying spider. By choosing the easier difficulty, the real-time length of the run is now 20 minutes shorter.

Explore winding corridors! Collect magical treasures! Battle vile monsters! Escape perilous traps! You are about to face the greatest challenge any mortal has ever known -- the Tower of Doom. Surviving the Tower of Doom requires quick reflexes and quicker wits. You must learn for yourself how to use many of the items you will find. You must decide when to fight a monster, and when to trade treasure for your life. You must maintain your strength, increase your stamina, and develop your diplomatic skills.

Winslinator beats the game on the Novice adventure quest with the Novice character in record time, throwing lots of axes in the process to get lucky.

USCF Chess is a chess video game that uses the name of the United States Chess Federation for branding purposes. It comes with both a one player mode and two player mode. In one player mode, you play against the AI with the difficulty of your choice. The higher the difficulty, the longer it takes for the AI to come up with a move to play against you, with some moves even taking hours to happen.

In this run, Winslinator chooses to play against the AI at Level 1, the lowest difficulty, and trounces it in record time.

The higher the difficulty, the longer it takes for the AI to come up with a move to play against you, with some moves even taking hours to happen.

Winslinator in this run beats the AI at the easiest difficulty as fast as possible by glitching it into making blunders and outright illegal moves while technically making legal moves himself the whole time. For more details on how this is achieved, you can read the author's notes.

Duke Nukem 64 (1997) is a classic PC shooter ported to Nintendo 64 — unfortunately, in a heavily censored state, and without much concern for the game's performance.

As such, the movie is played on the easiest level in an attempt to reduce the framerate drop issues arising from big amounts of enemies shooting at Duke. However, the sheer speed the player is blasting through levels will likely confuse you regardless — we recommend reading the author's comments to understand all the tricks he used.

Battle Chess is a chess game for the NES with a few neat gimmicks. In addition to standard 2D depictions of chess pieces you get to play with, you also have "3D" pieces that walk and interact with other pieces like they're real people. You also have animations for when pieces overtake and destroy other pieces. There are also features to aid in gameplay such as letting the game suggest moves to you if you're stuck and being able to take back moves and play again.

Battle Kid: Fortress of Peril may look old, but it's actually released in 2010. Mainly inspired by the PC game I Wanna Be the Guy, this game is classic platforming action, where anything can kill the player in one single hit.

Actually... not anymore! This run exploits a glitch involving pausing that makes the player invulnerable to everything, allowing the author to skip items they would normally need.

Circus Charlie is a simple game that most people probably know from pirate multigame carts. The first stages are easy for anyone even on real NES, but stage 3 is already quite challenging.

This movie plays "1 player game A" (easy). Ironically, this is MORE challenging for tool-assisted gameplay.

Stage times: 3440, 3560, 3750, 3880, 4280.

Yet another "perfect" movie beaten. This time by 12 frames.

The currently fastest "game B" (hard) TAS can be found here.

Earthworm Jim 2 (Shin-Shin) is an unlicensed NES port of the SNES/Genesis game "Earthworm Jim 2". This bootleg is a very stripped down version of the original game with only a few levels showing up, including "Anything But Tangerines", "Granny Chair", and "Puppy Love".

There are two versions of the game, one version features less levels than the other version for whatever reason. This TAS by XTREMAL93 plays on the version with more levels and beats it in record time.

We also have a TAS of the official game on Genesis.

Mickey's Safari in Letterland is an educational platformer for the NES. Mickey must collect all the letters in the alphabet for his museum by going to 6 different territories.

Using Normal difficulty, LogansGamingRoom only has to collect 6 letters in total, completing the alphabet set for Mickey's museum in record time.

River City Ransom is a goofy game that deserves a goofy TAS. This movie showcases cool tricks and some glitches that don't necessarily result in the fastest completion. We also have a movie which aims for speed.

Selected Quote from the authors:

This movie has a full Atlas Map encode, which shows the standard encode overlaid on a zoomed out map.

In River City Ransom, Alex and Ryan face off against gangs of students and evil bosses to win their town back and rescue their girlfriends. Several bosses need to be found and beaten before you can enter River City High and beat up the final bad guys (including an obvious imitation of the Double Dragon heroes). The gameplay also has elements of an RPG, where you can level up your character with shop purchases, but none of that is done here.

A glitch that is abused often in this run, pressing Left and Right at the same time, causes the player character to do all sorts of crazy things and usually lose all of his power. This is done to reduce lag during running segments and abuse collision detection.

This run obsoletes the previous one by nearly a minute due to much more optimization of boss fights and some new tricks. Weapons are also used more, so expect to see some chains and trash cans!

For a River City Ransom movie that concentrates more on goofing around than aiming purely for speed, click here. For a run that only uses Ryan, click here.

This is a run that only uses Ryan, who is normally Player 2. This has some very important differences compared to the two-player speedrun. One cutscene is significantly shorter when playing only as Ryan. There is less lag, though there are also fewer glitches and acrobatics. More boss fights, especially at the end, use the boss's superior strength against him, taking advantage of an exploit with kicking trash cans. For more details, see the run's submission comments.

Ninja Spirit began life as an arcade game and received many ports, including a Game Boy version and this version. It would be a stock platform game but for the ability to have up to two 'spirits' which behave like the options from Gradius.

In this run, CoolHandMike and EZGames69 complete the PCE mode of the game, saving 00:49.76 seconds over the previous run. Time savings within each level often result from lag reduction, which requires strategic routing, weapon usage, and enemy manipulation. The authors' comments provide details.

In this obscure title for an obscure platform, our ninja hero must fight his way through a horde of enemy ninja who attack from every angle in order to rescue the girl.

Join arukAdo in this exciting adventure as he slices through his enemies and their defenses like a hot chainsaw through fresh butter (and beats up the girl too).

We also have an alternate version of this run which plays on hard difficulty. The only difference between difficulty levels is enemy hit points, which is normally grounds for playing on the easiest possible difficulty (to improve speed and entertainment).

Astérix: The Gallic War is a light-hearted action-strategy hybrid game featuring the popular Asterix comic book characters. You play as Asterix, Obelix and the rest of the Celtic Gaul army as they war with the Romans, led by Caesar, who have seized all but one territory from the Gaul Empire. After gathering your army, you must capture lands adjacent to yours by either clearing a platforming segment, a mini-game like throwing a Roman as far as possible or combat sequences.

wesen runs through the game in record time.

Motor Toon Grand Prix is the sequel to the title of the same name developed in-house by members part of Sony Computer Entertainment division who would later be known as Gran Turismo's Polyphony Digital.

Time Crisis is a Light Gun title that needs almost no introduction. Receiving a home release in 1997, you are Richard Miller, the One Man Army set to run into a hotel which is a front for Kantaris headquarters who have been Wild Dog's arms supplier.

Join ThunderAxe31 as they shoot their way through the hotel and stop Kantaris and their Mechanoids, taking the easy route in just 4'18"86 on the in-game timer.

If Sonic the Hedgehog had a love affair with a golf ball, then the result would be Action Pachio. Giant evil robots have kidnapped Pachio's family and friends and now he must roll and jump his way through six different worlds in the solar system to save them all and defeat the ne'er-do-wells.

This is an improvement of 24.22 seconds over the previous movie, thanks to better overall optimisation.

Cyborg 009 is based on the manga and anime of the same name, which began a long time ago. There are eight characters that you can use, but one of them is set and you can only choose two others for each mission.

The run uses 008 (Pyunma) and 005 (Geronimo) most of the time. 008 can jump forward quickly and swim in water, while 005 does heavy damage to bosses. Various power-ups are collected to level-up 009 (Joe) due to an event near the end of the game.

The run uses the easiest difficulty due to the final boss taking less time to beat.

If you play this game, it is recommended to level-up 009 first, and a lot.

Huey, Dewey, and Louie Duck enter a magical book and get captured by King Pete. Now Mickey Mouse and their uncle Donald Duck have to save them. The heroes gain access to different outfits, as in previous games in the series, but the effect of each outfit is different between the two characters. The SNES version of this game was released only in Japan; a GBA port later saw a more widespread release.

KusogeMan controls both Mickey and Donald in this run but sometimes sacrifices one or the other for speed. The characters switch among the outfits often in order to optimize movement and defeat enemies quickly.

Note: The emulator used to create this run has some errors during screen transitions, such as the Capcom logo at the beginning.

Eek! The Cat is a game based on the old cartoon series of the same name. Your goal is to kick and shove an NPC to the exit of each level while avoiding enemies and obstacles, and all to the tune of some sweet music.

This game was originally planned to be released as Sleepwalker, this is why it's so dark (it happens at night) and has this specific gameplay of pushing the sleepwalking people to where they belong.

This is an improvement of 434 frames over the previous movie by WarHippy.

Snow White in Happily Ever After is a game based on Filmation's movie named Happily Ever After. It follows the plot of the movie, where Snow White's Prince gets transformed into Shadow Man by Snow White's brother, Maliss, who can transform into a dragon. In this game, it is up to either Snow White or Shadow Man to free the kingdom from Maliss's clutches.

GarbiTheGlitcheress defeats Maliss and breaks the spell set upon the Prince in record time.

Socks the Cat Rocks the Hill is a platform game developed by Realtime Associates for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It stars Socks, Bill Clinton's real-life presidential pet, who must make his way to the White House to warn the president that foreign spies have stolen nuclear missiles from the government. Along the way, he battles several notable U.S. political figures such as Jimmy Carter, George H. W. Bush, Ross Perot, and Rush Limbaugh.

The game is notable for its complicated release history; originally scheduled for fall 1993, it was ultimately shelved due to its publisher going under. A prototype cartridge was eventually discovered in 2011, and a Kickstarter by collector Tom Curtin was successfully able to release the game in 2018.

With the help of various glitches and tricks, tormented navigates Socks to the Oval Office in just over 15 minutes.

Stone Protectors is a beat 'em up video game in a British multimedia franchise trying to capitalize on the "group of badass dudes with an attitude" craze in the '90s popularized by Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Toxic Crusaders. It involves a bunch of mediocre rockers who find magic stones that turn them rock star trolls that can outdo the competition. These crystals are coveted by an evil alien race called the Saurians, led by the music-hating Zok, who then invade Earth to find these rock stars, now known as the "Stone Protectors".

Technickle plays the Japanese version for its faster loading times and abuses Cornelius's Ultra-Sonic Vocal Reverb and microphone nunchucks to beat the game as fast as possible.

Technickle plays the Japanese version for its faster loading times and plays both Cornelius the Samurai and Chester the Wrestler to quickly rid the screen of enemies and stunlock bosses in order to beat the game in record time. You can read the author's notes for more details such as how the RNG was manipulated.

Super Star Wars is a 1992 game made by LucasArts, the first in a trilogy of SNES games created by them. It is notable for its run-and-gun gameplay.

Watch as Exonym deals with some very difficult luck manipulation and lag reduction to expertly deliver a time of 18:36.

More Star Wars runs, we have. Find them here, you can.

Super Star Wars: Return of the Jedi is the third game in the Super Star Wars series, a series notable for its run-and-gun gameplay.

In this run, arandomgameTASer deals with intense lag reduction, along with many glitches and tricks, to finish the game in a fraction of the time it would take normally. Clearly, the Force is with him.

In addition to this run, there are also runs of the first and second games in the series: Super Star Wars and Super Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back.

Note: A section of the final level has its audio muted on YouTube to prevent copyright claim and removal of the entire audio track.

Super Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back is the second game in the Super Star Wars series, notable for its unforgiving difficulty and run-and-gun gameplay.

In this run, the authors deal with intense lag reduction and luck manipulation to beat the game in a little over half an hour. Most impressive.

There are also runs of the first and third games in the series: Super Star Wars and Super Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.

The Great Circus Mystery is another side-scrolling Disney platformer involving Mickey & Minnie Mouse. The author controls both characters simultaneously.

In this run, jaysmad was able to improve his time from the previous run by 03:05.08. Unlike the previous run however, this game is played on the easiest difficulty to reduce lag.

The Lion King, based on the famous Disney movie, is a platform game where you control Simba - initially as a young cub, and later as an adult lion. The plot of the game follows the plot of the movie. Each of the levels represents a part of the movie.

EZGames69 and SBDWolf save 1:28 over the previous run by playing on the easiest difficulty instead of the hardest and through better manipulation of the RNG. For more details, you can read the authors' comments.

For a TAS of the slightly different Genesis port, you can find it here.

Yoshi's Safari is one of the few SNES titles that supports the Super Scope accessory. Bowser and his Koopalings have invaded Jewelry Land and stolen all of the kingdom's precious jewels. Armed with the Scope, Mario rides Yoshi to find Bowser and recover the jewels.

As this is a lightgun game, this run basically shoots everything in sight.

Iji is a freeware game released by Daniel Remar in 2008. Quoting his website, where the game can be downloaded: "Iji is an action-packed strategic platform shooter with a detailed story, large levels with multiple paths, powerful bosses and lots of secrets. There are alternate gameplay events, dialogues and scenes depending on what you do, a wealth of extras and bonus features, and seven stats to upgrade through a leveling system. Iji herself has superhuman strength and abilities, and can crack Nanotechnology, use her enemies' most devastating weapons against them, and be a pacifist or a killer - the story adapts to how you play."

Matslo123 collects everything that can be collected in a single playthrough (all posters, ribbons and superchages, Yukabacera's scrambler, the trapmine, the banana gun and all armor and jump upgrades) and clears the game in record time.

Due to a change in ending timing between this movie and the one it obsoletes, this is actually an improvement of 44.3 seconds over the previous movie, thanks to better optimisation and better health and nano management.
