For those who don't check the Chrono Trigger topic, or were successfully fooled by my prank, yes, I'm working on this game as well, mostly as a distraction to prevent Chrono Trigger from sucking the life out of me. =P
My goal is to shoot for lowest score, then go as fast as possible.
Anyways, here's the work-in-progress, which has finished up to Course 2-4, located
right here[/url]. This was recorded with SNES9x 1.43 final, non-improved version.
Notes on this:
1-1: I considered putting in a tight circle to hit all three enemies, however it seems that as you lose speed that the radius of the circle expands outward, thus by the time you reach the final enemy you're way off and you'll miss the hole.
1-2: I hadn't considered attempting the "regular" way of hitting a hole in one on this hole (which is just putting straight ahead at around 50%-75% power), however since Kirby has a lot more ground to cover going that way I seriously doubt it's faster.
1-3: I'm pretty sure this is the optimal route on this hole, getting a Hole in One without using Hi-Jump, but I've got this feeling there's a better way of going about this hole..
1-4: I could've sworn I missed a bounce somewhere along the line..
1-8: Nope, I don't Hole in One this hole. I can't get any further forward velocity on my initial putt (or else I'll fall off the course entirely!), and aiming down-right at the enemy below me for some reason won't allow me to curve Kirby back toward the other enemies nearly enough to be able to get back up to the upper level.
2-2: No Hole in One here either. It looks like such an easy hole to Hole in One, but it's not! I tried about a couple hundred ways of making a jump shot, hitting the spark near the top of the hole then avoiding the two trees about midway down, but every trajectory winds up throwing me smack dab into the first tree! Unfortunately, the Spark powerup also weighs Kirby down heavily and prevents him from being able to bounce higher/further, preventing him from being able to defeat all three enemies after the trees if I use Spark to plow through the trees. So, I went for the quickest way to make this hole in 2 shots instead.
Anyways, any questions/comments? Fire away!
