This is a 17 frames improvement over my previous run. 21 frames were saved in 4-2, and 1 frame for 8-4 2nd room, and 5 frames were lost in the last room due to bad Podoboo RNG.

In my previous attempt, Luigi hit the hidden coin block and then Mario used it as a stool to reach the vine, which I already knew was unnecessary because even without the coin block they were at a high enough level to hit or reach the vine. The reason I overlooked this is that if you scroll the screen too far to the right before the vine grows enough, Mario won't be able to grab it. My previous TAS was spending too much time waiting for the vine to grow, so I improved on it and managed to gain a 1 frame rule.

And only simple improvement and loss were made in 8-4. I would be glad if someone could make a perfect movement up to the last axe without losing any time.

This is a remake based on https://tasvideos.org/4247S

This ROM Hack almost doubles Mario's height. The width has slightly increased too, but it's not easily noticed, and some cramped areas on the stages have been modified according to his new size. I resumed creating movies after a long time starting with this and Mario's size has grown ridiculously, which has contributed to increasing difficulty in making xD

This is a very small improvement for the NES EarthBound Beginnings "warp glitch". The published run buys 4 Life Up Creams after respawning at the Podunk department store, but in this WIP buys 5. Ninten currently has Cash Card, Franklin Badge, Bread Crumbs and PSI Stone, he can buy 4 items because he has 4 remaining spaces. But I recalled PSI Stone be gone with a 1/8 chance when it's used, this meant one additional Life Up Cream could be bought to reduce the frequency of using Life Up α in the final battle. It was a meaningful attempt, but the result of actual improvement was not satisfactory to me so I just submitted this on WIP.

Used cheat code: 001F:10

The code applied to this TAS makes every object move ridiculously fast (about 8 times). The maximum speed is defined when Value is 10~3F, a graphical glitch occurs when the Value exceeds 3F.

"anti-pacifist" is a category originally created by the Super Mario Bros. speedrunner RoyLGamer. The goal is to kill all enemies who appear on the screen as stated on the branch. This means you don't have to kill an enemies that exist where you haven't visited, so I ignored some hidden stages which contain an underwater enemies. Also, enemies simply walking into a pit are not count as killed.

We made some exception to the rule because Buzzy Beetles are generally impossible to kill without using Power Star or kicking another shell, so even if you just stomp on Buzzy Beetles, we admit it as being killed.

Enemies not included: Bullet Bills, Flying Cheep Cheeps in 8-4 & Podoboos

Footnotes on some levels:

4-1: Lakitu reappears after a certain period of frames after it dies, and item blocks can manipulate its appearance timing.

5-1: At the end of the level, BBG was performed but it doesn't saved any time compared to doing normal flagpole glitch because the Bullet Bill didn't shot fast enough to reach the next frame rule. I believe it would be impossible to fire it more faster while killing all the enemies in the level.

5-4: There was 1 missing frame due to bad Firebar RNG and I never found it. I'd be very grateful if someone discover the solution of this unsolvable puzzle.

7-1: The last Buzzy Beetle was used for full-fpg and it emerges from its shell by the time the level is finished. Kicking the shell off the screen would be a clear and uncontroversial way, but I chose an improvements that could save more frames.
