Snow Stage, Jungle Stage and 1/3 of Swamp Stage Finished!

Two Notes:

- In one path of Snow Stage, for unknown reason, it's only possible to get the key going on closed door and then kill the enemy who has the Key.

- In Jungle Stage, I delivered the last hit a few frames later on pterodactyl Boss to save 24 frames.

No one did a speedrun of the game. So, that's why i started the first speedrun of Joe & Mac 2.

I discovered a Reset Trick in the game:

Reset Trick

At the Frame 18, if you press Soft Reset, it's possible to skip the Data East and the Licensed by Nintendo Logos. It saves 854 frames!

I takes unnecessary damage in some parts of first stage just for fun (such as kill 3 enemies with 1 attack and drop meat when Joe is about to eat).

Stage 3 is finished and improved.

The last part before of the Boss Stage 3 is the most improved.

A New Glitch is used on the Boss Stage 3 to save time. Thanks to Mecha Ritcher for discovery!

900 frames (15.8 seconds) ahead of my last WIP of Snes9x emulator.

Yes, It's possible down 5 cycles to 1 cycle on the Boss 4 of the game.

It's not possible to defeat the last Boss in one cycle.

526 frames improved of the two first stages totally.

EDIT: I made a mistake of improvement time. It's 526 frames actually, not 681 frames.

Recorded in Bizhawk 1.11.4 version.

I restarted the run because I changed Snes9x to Bizhawk emulator.

I improved in Stage 1 totally, but i lose several frames due of extra lag caused because of more accurate emulation of the Bizhawk.

Because of that, This WIP improved Stage 1 only 183 frames in the Bizhawk emulator.

Thanks Mecha Richter for an improvement of the Forest part of Stage 1. I Call: Early Finish Glitch.

Up to Stage 2, Again.

Recorded in Snes9x 1.51 v7.

Up to second part of Stage 5.

I Discovered a Wall Jump Glitch which is used in the Ice Cavern of Stage 4.

EDIT: Recorded in Snes9x 1.51 v7.

Up to second part of Stage 3.

In Stage 1, I improved 1049 frames ahead Blackpearl's old WIP (he finished Stage 1 only).

I choose Tops because can throw darts to damage enemies from a distance, and that helps to reduce lag in some parts at the stages of the game.

Tricks:

Hover Trick (Discovered by Blackpearl).

Rapid Fire Trick (Discovered by Me).

I don't speak English. Sorry, I'm not good to explain in language English.
