Comparison to my previous movie: - 4 frames improved by better boosting and lag frame removing at room1 (exits 4 frames faster) - 4 frames improved by better lag frame removing (exits 4 frames faster, 8 total) - Nasty lag frames everywhere.... wall clipping optimizible, probably saves the improvements back.

This version based on Masterjun's latest attempt.

- Lag frames avoided by swallowing 3 enemies at room 1 (avoiding the lag caused by taking damage/creaure explode), sacrificing position and using Masterjun's lua script I avoided more frames, making to the exit in 1344 (1348 for Masterjun, 1347 for my earlier "1 frame improvement"). >> 4 frames

- I think somewhere I got an extra speed in the early part of room 2. Some lag frames avoided. Exits at 1871 (1876 for Masterjun) >> 5 frames

- RNG changed a little bit. overall: 2178 frames (2183 for Masterjun)

Possible improvements... - Different approach to "cliff" at end of room 1? - Different jumping to "cliff" at end of room 2? - Different slope wallclipping before warping?

3 frames improved by optimizing the clipping and ending. more details in earlier uploaded wip.

Completes the first 2 stages with two players. Very fast.

This movie beats the first 3 worlds and somewhere gets bored.

This movie is 37 frames faster than the published glitched run at the 1st frame of entering Ragua Sando thanks to using input before the first lag frame which processes at the next non-lag frame. This way I start every level 1 frame faster. This also leads to different routes and strategies.

The route is optimized to bounce and get tones as much as possible at the lowest cost of "wasting" frames

This movie tries to manipulate more "spaces" between different blocks. This is a huge time saver. The only problem is that it's nearly impossible to do it while going up as fast as you can (literally holding U).

Strategy for a perfect run would be manipulate the 3 and 4 blocks in such order to help P1 sometimes with P2 to destroy it and manipulate as many spaces as you can and holding U at least on 1 controller all the time! And avoid lag frames.

The fastest route should start with: 4, 3, 4, 3, 3 blocks. Pattern maybe depend on 0x002C but everytime there was a "drop", it will "mean" something else. All I could investigate is that there are "empty patterns" that just drops spaces, but you have a small window to manipulate the next "empty pattern".

For the very first pattern, 0x002C experiments: All empty patterns:

30, 32, 39, 3B, 3C, 3E, 3F 70, 72, 79, 7B, 7C, 7E, 7F B0, B2, B9, BB, BC, BE, BF F0, F2, F9, FB, FC, FE, FF

This movie kills nearly half of the required enemies for stage 2 just to demonstrate the "super L+R speed" trick.

0x00BA horizontal speed 0x00AC x pos 0x0196 kill counter 0x0198 final boss hp (dec from 100) 0x0179 final boss hp (inc from 0) 0x05B4 hp

Super Left speed - negative - LR until -128, let of LR Super Right speed - positive - Gonegative, hold LR after 126 until destination

Indirect damaging of the final boss through the wizard

Level 0 - 2 kill count Level 1 - weapons - 15 kill count, boss, pick up all bounty Level 2 - bounty - 15 kill count, boss, insta end (wizard's star stun) Level 3 - weapons - 20 kill count, boss, pick up all bounty

This movie finishes the very 1st stage with 3 turbo uses (refills to 3). Note that there's looping stages with actually 3 different difficulty. You would need to use a "cheat code" to start from the hard one directly from the menu.

0x0018 speedometer, learn the values to make perfect shifts 0x0544 enemy pos, not the best but something useful.

-Enemies you need to capture has unfair speed advantage over you. So the fastest way to catch em up is to be slow while reasonably fast. This means you should be fast before they appear and try to hit the enemy without sacrificing more time to spend to recovery (avoiding slowdown) -Enemy car's moving pattern depends on your cars position. -Making a wide turn with your car around a corner makes a sound effect. Actually most of the time there's no slowdown.

This movie finishes the 1st stage. The ending was incredibly unlucky and totally bad. But this way I could implement both improvements and best routes.
