Pizza time.

Verification movie: https://tasvideos.org/UserFiles/Info/638305803053895382 Go to config > gamecube > and set the slot A to "GCI Folder" to prevent doing any memory card shenanigans. Play this movie to completion and it will create a necessary save file for the TAS to play.
1 GC controller connected. Unlike the other spidey 2 TASes, this one is done in the JIT engine because Dolphin devs are legends - they fixed the one bug with savestates (intentionally or not) that resulted in random savestate corruptions when making states for this game specifically in the JIT engine. It's now able to be TASed at any speed you want; none of that 4fps stuff we used to be stuck with.
Deliver the pizzas and do not let the time run out, do not flip the pizzas too many times, and do not return to the parlor until all pizzas are delivered. Do not pass go, do not collect 200 dollars, go directly to jail.
Performing an air trick will flip and damage the pizza, but you can cancel the air trick before the damage occurs by punching in the air. This is why you see me punch seemingly randomly.
I ate like 40 pizzas during the creation of this TAS. Also, I had tried to make a pizza% TAS numerous times back when Dolphin wasn't as good for TASing this game - I never finished, but I saved my best times for each mission every time I tried, and I went out of my way to beat every. Single. One.
Version with snowy textures, written commentary, and speed tracker:
EZGames69 gets to publish this one unless he doesn't want to.

ThunderAxe31: Claiming for judging.
ThunderAxe31: Un-claiming.
Natetheman223: Claiming for- wait, nevermind.

Samsara: Judging.
Samsara: Dropping due to personal life events preventing me from being able to judge anything with a clear mind.

ThunderAxe31: New PC, new judging attempt.
ThunderAxe31: Accepting as a new branch.

EZGames69: Processing...
ThunderAxe31: It was brough to my attention that the pizza missions are more side quests than a separate game mode, so I'm changing the intended publication class to Alternative.
