This movie is 37 frames faster than the published glitched run at the 1st frame of entering Ragua Sando thanks to using input before the first lag frame which processes at the next non-lag frame. This way I start every level 1 frame faster. This also leads to different routes and strategies.

The route is optimized to bounce and get tones as much as possible at the lowest cost of "wasting" frames

Feel free to use this WIP.

This movie tries to manipulate more "spaces" between different blocks. This is a huge time saver. The only problem is that it's nearly impossible to do it while going up as fast as you can (literally holding U).

Strategy for a perfect run would be manipulate the 3 and 4 blocks in such order to help P1 sometimes with P2 to destroy it and manipulate as many spaces as you can and holding U at least on 1 controller all the time! And avoid lag frames.

The fastest route should start with: 4, 3, 4, 3, 3 blocks. Pattern maybe depend on 0x002C but everytime there was a "drop", it will "mean" something else. All I could investigate is that there are "empty patterns" that just drops spaces, but you have a small window to manipulate the next "empty pattern".

For the very first pattern, 0x002C experiments: All empty patterns:

30, 32, 39, 3B, 3C, 3E, 3F 70, 72, 79, 7B, 7C, 7E, 7F B0, B2, B9, BB, BC, BE, BF F0, F2, F9, FB, FC, FE, FF

This movie kills nearly half of the required enemies for stage 2 just to demonstrate the "super L+R speed" trick.

0x00BA horizontal speed 0x00AC x pos 0x0196 kill counter 0x0198 final boss hp (dec from 100) 0x0179 final boss hp (inc from 0) 0x05B4 hp

Super Left speed - negative - LR until -128, let of LR Super Right speed - positive - go negative, hold LR after 126 until destination

Indirect damaging of the final boss through the wizard

Level 0 - 2 kill count Level 1 - weapons - 15 kill count, boss, pick up all bounty Level 2 - bounty - 15 kill count, boss, insta end (wizard's star stun) Level 3 - weapons - 20 kill count, boss, pick up all bounty

This movie finishes the very 1st stage with 3 turbo uses (refills to 3). Note that there's looping stages with actually 3 different difficulty. You would need to use a "cheat code" to start from the hard one directly from the menu.

0x0018 speedometer, learn the values to make perfect shifts 0x0544 enemy pos, not the best but something useful.

-Enemies you need to capture has unfair speed advantage over you. So the fastest way to catch em up is to be slow while reasonably fast. This means you should be fast before they appear and try to hit the enemy without sacrificing more time to spend to recovery (avoiding slowdown) -Enemy car's moving pattern depends on your cars position. -Making a wide turn with your car around a corner makes a sound effect. Actually most of the time there's no slowdown.

This movie finishes the 1st stage. The ending was incredibly unlucky and totally bad. But this way I could implement both improvements and best routes.

Feel free to use this WIP.

Nearly the same as last wip but changed input to avoid getting game over. Frame 01:07.25: And so, the dark queen is defeated once again.

This completes the first 3 sets. Uploaded to show how boring it is.

I forgot to take account the travel time at the 16 pixels level. I changed the route to make the last action the fastest and synced it until the end. Saves 30 frames.

This is a fixed version of my TAS to run it on Bizhawk 1.4.0 by inserting 2 additional lag frames (1 for 18 and 1 for 22).

My WIP4 run with an additional waiting time and pressing select at the very first non lag frame to bring the credits faster

TwistedEye's submitted run with an additional waiting time and pressing select at the very first non lag frame to bring the credits faster

Improves TwistedEye's submission in terms of showing the "end game" text

This is a WIP, made to check the difference between north and south side.

68 frames improvement over last submitted TAS by Dylax and Dj TheZeromus

Probably final version

If you have free time, watch it with sound and please write me (PM/irc) about your opinions (changed music at level 1 and "sound effects" for level 3 also fuzzy background).

Overally 52 frames improvement. Unfinished (manipulation is not ready)
