The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX is an updated version of an older GB game which adds color, an additional dungeon, various other minor features, and a lot of bug fixes. Link, after rescuing Hyrule (again?), sets off on a journey and subsequently shipwrecks on the mysterious Koholint Island, which has been overtaken by evil monsters which he must defeat in order to find a way back home.

You can watch the complete run being played back on a console.

In this TAS, TwistedTammer goes through the entire game collecting all the permanent inventory items, which includes heart pieces, L2 upgrades, capacity upgrades, photographs, and the colored tunic upgrade exclusive to the DX version of the game. However this run does avoid some major glitches in order to make the viewing experience more enjoyable.
Proving yet again the lengths a TAS can go in destroying a game, this run features a warping glitch that allows for severe sequence breaking. The final boss is reached within a handful of minutes and defeated with minimal weaponry.
TwistedTammer improves the previous run by 00:26.00 seconds.
There is a movie of this game that does not use the warp glitch.

The baseline tab shows the default movie beating the game as fast as possible without any special conditions.
