RNG manipulation for Devilbat was a pain since he has a good chance of just teleporting away for a while. Anyways, so far this is turning out pretty good for someone new to Mega Man Zero TASing.

A simple RAM watch that has Somari's screen position, map position, horizontal and vertical speed, and a boolean check for ascending state. Things of note is that just running is faster than using the spin dash, and that jumping in the air loses horizontal speed.

This one made for despoa.

Why you gotta be a lag creator, flame burst shot? Now I have to carefully consider where to swap that on or off until probably once I get Busras in Copy X's stage. Also no damage means a lot of waiting on the Ocean Highway Ruins due to that one stinkin' spike pillar just in the way before the midboss being just a little to high to jump over.

This is an unfinished WIP. Initially I couldn't get the tutorial skip of activating the right elevator early in my test runs, but later real time testing managed to get that happening sometimes. If someone can get it to trigger early then maybe I'll get back to this sooner rather than later.

Also worth noting that the RTA PC record now goes back through the boss arena after getting jump. I can do that and maybe cut out the machine gun ammo upgrade. If I do skip out on the ammo, then I'd have to work out a better boss 2 fight that involves manipulating ammo drops for more mines and maybe eitehr machine gun or rocket ammo. I'm not quite satisfied with that fight in any case.

I mostly did this as kind of a goof. it's definitely not refined considering that I'm roughly 8 seconds behind this speed run by Janet before entering the door to the boss arena. Enemies have more health on Hardest but considering that the boss only has about 1 jump & stomp more health between Normal and Hardest, I'd definitely have to work on understanding getting damage before knockdowns better since it's not an enemy HP problem.

I didn't stutter when I said I'd do quiz games. However this input file was doing a max score run. The thing about that is moving the joystick at certain frames changes where the icon goes for the multiplier and I haven't quite found an ideal one for one of the questions. Getting that manipulated right would save a second or two. If I didn't give a damn about score this would be completely trivial.

Found a faster strat for avoiding the dogs in stage 1.

YouTube encode available here. Game does this weird thing with resolutions so I only posted the stage gameplay portion. Rest assured that I did modify the options before entering it.

This is a short TAS of the SAGE 2022 demo version of the fan game Mega Man: The Sequel Wars. This completes the Dust Man EX stage as fast as I could do in about a few hours work.

Game version:

I doubt it's that clean but there's also a LOT of lag in the Dust Man EX stage. Still, I wanted to get on the ground floor for this game since I really like it a lot. While I got the feeling that I barely missed getting the zip in the crusher room, the current build's super arrow would definitely allow for them. I expect that to be changed by full release.

Got the easy half of the game done. Now for the more puzzle-y half of the game with longer solutions. Not sure if the sub-30 minute time is possible due to those levels but I'm certain of a sub-40 minute time.
