Comments

This TAS implements the double damage on N trance and early hits on N tropy, preventing him from placing the gem platforms.

GoddessMaria: Judging...
GoddessMaria: Updated with a 474-frame improvement.
Samsara: File replaced with a further 288 frame improvement.
GoddessMaria: Hello, Gibran, and welcome to TASVideos! Sorry for the delay! Unfortunately, this movie doesn't meet the qualifications for the Moons tier due to the audience response being relatively low and entertainment not being to standards. That being said, it does qualify for the Vault tier. This movie does indeed beat all known records prior to the additional improvements and the further improvements solidifies it further than the currently published movie with polished optimization and new tricks. Good job!
Accepting as an improvement to the current movie.
Spikestuff: Publishing.

Just pointing out to the author that you could've just used the user files (which you've used) and just ask for a file replacement. I'll get another temp encode going, but majority of the input is the same as the one over here so you can watch that in the meantime. Still claiming for Publication.

This was a great trip down memory lane, as someone who absolutely played the crap out of this game. I could never beat N-Tropy though and I never went back to trying to beat him. Perhaps I can try it again now that this movie is making me find my copy. Yes vote. I do have one question though, why do you not do that much in movement for the carpet and surfing sections? They seem very dull to watch when you aren’t doing much.

Well ... sorry about that, basically there is not much to do in those parts, besides when I tried to do some maneuvers on the carpet, the rest of the levels would change abruptly, either I could not reach certain platforms or there was several lag frames, the same with the surf levels, so I decided better not to make so many movements in these sections to avoid complications that affect the completion time. Anyway, I'll post a submission with improvement. Sorry for bad english

One question, I upload my improvement of this game as a submission or as a file replacement?

Although not particularly my cup of tea, this movie was fairly entertaining. Yes vote.

Very diverse movement throughout the game, and a great effort was put for the entertainment during the autoscrollers, yes vote from me.

Link to video 720p60 HD encode of the updated improvement
I like to comment on submissions and look around the site. You have probably seen me before (if you have been around for a while) either on the site, Discord, or any other social media. I recently took up making temporary encodes for new submissions. Also, I never forget to greet Tompa wherever I find him!

Pretty varied gameplay. The video makes that slide look like it is lagging the game when you go far with it too. The autoscrollers are not exactly exciting imo. Voted yes, but it is kind of borderline meh for me.
