  • Aims for fastest time
  • Takes damage to save time
  • Play at hardest level
It's the first movie for this game.
  • How to save time
Fire while jumping. It's better than fire while standing on the ground.
Jumping has the same speed as walking,but it'll cause a small lag. So I tried to have fewer jumps.
If I do have to jump,I try to make them continuously. It help to save several frames' time.
  • Indefinite facters
In this game,a jump can lead to some changes.
Some enemies won't appear at certen places.
Sometimes you can see a jump without firing,it's not meaningless.
There's a lag when walking to the door at the end of each mission.I always jump to avoid it.

Me like. Pretty simplistic, but the playing looks clean. Nice, brisk scroll rate. The music is great (except for the bit with the ear-bleeding pulse in one track) and the sound effects don't interfere too much. The shooting is well done, but nothing we haven't seen before in Rolling Thunder, from which this game seems to be based. I'm not sure if there's a run for the English version of this game, though. If there is, one would have to make certain that this run is faster than that. I can't be bothered to look that up while downloading something, so, yes vote. :D

Is it just me or does this look like the pantsless hero rescues Hitler in every level?

Input seems to end a little early. To get the full ending I had to press 'A' at the last mission clear screen. Otherwise this is a pretty good run. The music in the first couple levels seems more suited to a casino game...

Very impressive run of a really underrated and very hard game. That wasn't a speedrun -- that was a speedblitz!

Should I cancel this movie? I improved the USA version by 4 seconds. They are the same.

In fact,I didn't know there's a USA version before. After submitting this Japanese version,I had an idea that an USA version may be more popular.
