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.

Wait! That monster on the first level appears as soon as you enter "that room" without the need to trigger the cutscene and the vent section doesn't hurt the player in the original version? Crazy job! Yes vote.
My homepage --Currently not much motived for TASing as before...-- But I'm still working.

Yes. Fall into the rabbit hole of multiple versions of one series.

I ran into an issue with mismatched firmware likely being the cause of the copy protection inputs to fail for me. Can you provide the file name and hash of the firmware used for this TAS if at all possible? EDIT 17 February 2025: Checking the hash for the input file and the list of compatible hashes in BizHawk's firmware, turns out this was made with a different firmware than what I use. Specifically, this uses this firmware: 
Kickstart v3.1 r40.063 (1993-07)(Commodore)(A500-A600-A2000)[!]
amiga-os-310-a600.rom
sha1:3B7F1493B27E212830F989F26CA76C02049F09CA
This probably isn't going to be a problem with judging, it's just that this needs to be listed as an important sync note for future Amiga submissions.
