Main issues of the game:

Level by level comments :

Gaulish Village:

• 2:
  • I chose to didn't take the potion at the left and turned to the right at the beginning, it costs some life points but saves time
• 3:
  • I took the chicken to restore some life points
• 4:
  • I took Obelix because his bigger hitbox allows me to take the boar without getting on the ship
• 5:
  • Intentionnal death to take back all my life points
  • I saved 2 seconds by going through the background instead of coming back on the plateform
  • I skipped a little part of the level thanks to a frame perfect jump on the elevator
• 7:
  • There is no other way than falling down then climbing to go to the other side of the door
  • Optimise the bomb was very hard, the long animations problem is amplified by the speed
• 9:
  • Death abuse once again
  • I needed the damage boost from the spikes to go up
• 10:
  • Death abuse
  • Very hard flight due to the big hitboxes
• BOSS: When throwing a fish, Asterix doesn't move with the carrier, so you can't throw more than 4 fish each time

Roman Encampment:

• 3:
  • A little funny skip
• 5:
  • Those fishes are really annoying
• 6:
  • You can't dodge the bird without crouching before falling
  • At 1:18, this is a frame perfect jump
  • Little skip with the cloud
• 8:
  • The cloud position and the jumps were very hards because the spikes have weird hitboxes
• BOSS: I managed to hit every single rock

The Forest:

• 1:
  • I keeped the bird alive because why not ?
• 2:
  • By saving my bomb potion I didn't have to get other bombs whiwh were a little bit out of the way
• 3:
  • I used several damage boosts with the nests
• 5:
  • Fastest level, 10 seconds x)
• 6:
  • I duplicated the cloud potion to skip a small part of the level
• 7:
  • The rocks also have weird hitboxes... They are pretty hard to dodge
• BOSS: You must alternate between A and B as fast as possible to beat the boss, and this is a TAS

Germany:

• 2:
  • The eagles were hard to optimise
  • I killed one of the birds on the first possible frame, it's almost invisible on real time and it looks like I killed it in the air
• 3:
  • Some clips are possible on the sausages
  • I skipped a part of the level by jumping from the highest point of the sausage
  • I skipped another part thanks to the speed I got with the bomb
• 5:
  • Optimising this bomb was a nightmare

Roman Galley:

• 2:
  • Very hard level
• 3:
  • I jumped on the seal on the very last frames
• 4:
  • I saved a lot of time by killing the 2 romans with a bomb because else they need 3 hits each
  • I was fast enough to take the potion before taking the damage
• 5:
  • Very optimise level
• BOSS:
  • I can hit him 3 times on the left, but only 2 times on the right
  • Very hard boss because I needed to take damage to hit him

Rome:

• 1:
  • Very stupid level design
• 3:
  • Death abuse
  • The mix between 3D and 2D is disturbing on the bridge
• 5:
  • I didn't take the sickle because it's faster
  • Strange enemies behavior, I can only hit them if I am not moving and close enough
• 6:
  • Weird hitbox once again on the peaks,I need to wait a bit, nothing I can do about that
• BOSS: Death abuse
