Introduction
Streemerz (as known as SUPERSTRENGTHEMERGENCYSQUAD-ZETA) is a flash game made for the "ACTION 53 OWNS" competition by Arthur Lee, later Faux Game Co. ported it to NES. You can download the lastest ROM from their website.
This speedrun completes the game's "Superb Joe mode" which contains a series of "hard" levels and must be completed within 5 minutes. The world record is 55.34 sec EDIT:(Only found video for 1 minute 2~5 secs runs... "what a coincidence"). which can be seen here by ineb_tfm aka Alan. This run completes it in 45.89 seconds thanks to extreme positioning and abusing the rules/physics of the game.
The game is pretty basic: You can shoot a grappling hook or go left and right (A, L, R). Some blocks grappable, some don't. 1 hit and die.
Game objectives
- Emulator used: FCEUX 2.2.0, uses palflag 0 (NTSC)
- Aims for fastest possible in-game time
- Entertains without losing a frame
Some comments, screen by screen, some of them is used everywhere
- [S1)For whatever reason, the sound of grappling hook doesn't works.
- [S1)Not afraid of fire
- [S1)Grappling for 1 frame and cancelling it gives a huge vertical boost (look at those incredible corner boosts)
- [S2)Removing lag frames by targeting different spots with grappling hook
- [S2)This route is faster than going left
- [S3)Starting the crazy grapplings
- [S4)Try to not blink
- [S5)Grappling the lower one removes a lag frame
- [S6)Close call?
- [S7)One of the most impossible part of the run, I doubt that anyone could reproduce it in real time because of turning 2 frames right and delaying the 1 of the grappling with 1 frame while tossing out every possible grapplings.
- [S8)no blinking
- [S9)The second impossible part, nearly the same complexity as the earlier mentioned. Crazy grapplings anyone?
- [S10)Third impossible part. At least this can be "nearly" achieved the same way in real time but not that fast.
- [S11)Fourth impossible in the terms of making it in a realtime. Just holding a grapp for 1 frame longer and you get 3-4 lagframes.
- [S12)no blinking still
- [S13)nothing
