Introduction
The very first version of this masterpiece of a game. For extra purity points, I use the french language release.
The main difference with other versions is the lack of the "outside courts" level. Trivia says that critics of the game complained that, although very fun, the game was too short. Therefore, Eric Chahi (the author) added these levels for following releases.
Another notable property of this version is that the introduction cannot be skipped (I tried everything), so this means viewers of this movie will enjoy the entire secuence.
For this movie, I mostly manually routed the levels, but used JaffarPlus' QuickerRAWGL core to solve some of the spicy parts. In particular the fight against the green lamp guard.

Darkman425: So fun fact: I got to learn the hard way that Amiga TASes require specific firmware to sync. I posted about it in the submission thread but I figured out the problem. This mostly means that noting the Amiga OS firmware used is required for syncing between folks in the future, much like the PlayStation and Saturn.
As for the submission, the optimization looks well done to me. Nothing stood out to me aside from the intentional death but that seemed unavoidable when jumping past the rest of the guards beforehand. Nice work!
Accepting to Standard.
