Duck Tales is a classic game in which Scrooge has to collect treasures from all over the world. Some of the levels are not completely straightforward, and collecting items is sometimes necessary before proceeding. His cane also doubles as an almighty pogo stick that can be used in various ways, which makes jumping a lot more fun.

Saved 27 frames

I saved a few frames and I added two new skips (African Mines and The Moon).

probably final version. 35 frames faster than published movie.

Trying to figure out that goat. Level 5 is unchanged just resynced from previous published movie file to check goat behaviour at level 4.

Aglar's lag frame trade (removing a lag frame by sacrificing position) saves Aglar's improvement on 1st/2nd vine. Boss 2 rng resynced. Boss 3 RNG need to be resynced.

WIP v12 resynced until 3rd boss fight. I got an extra lag frame before boss. Not sure if it's removable.

I pick up the key after boss 1 frame earlier, but still got an extra "delay" frame so it finishes in the same time as the earlier movie without Aglar's improvement. RNG is different of course.

How different? The best one!! Bird goes low and right! Abused with taking away a lag frame after launching a bomb to an enemy on the way.

Will resync boss fight and other levels later.

Added Aglar's 1 frame save at level 1 1st and 2nd vine. Currently I get 2 additional lag frames at falling bridge scene (so desyncs there).

Pressing A for 1 frame at 7327th frame in TASEditor will make the hit desync because the next jump will have different vertical boost since Y sub 1 (0x660) will take account Y sub 2 too after jumping for an extra time.

--> 9 frames

--> 10 frames

--> 18 frames - amount of frames need to "despawn" the hockey enemies

Currently I got a bad spawns (x2) of hockey enemies at level 4 after goats, so I'm trying to understand how to manipulate away them without sacrificing too much speed in the icy stage.

I had some crazy ideas that turned out to be much slower like changing the internal timers (timer1 (level timer) and timer2 (special timer (boss, transformation, level end, etc)), grabbing all ropes and taking damage at level 1, making bigger vertical boosts, using different route for level 2.
