Neat game I found back in 2022.
To briefly describe what's going on here, you have to destroy certain types of "Spuds" by shooting Spuds at them. Red can only destroy red, blue can only destroy blue, green destroys both.
This game automatically scrolls. Staying at the top of the screen will give you max speed. Staying at the bottom will give you the slowest. In later levels, "speed pads" appear, which change how fast the screen scrolls.
The idea behind this TAS is to simply beat the game while staying in max speed as much as possible.
Not a very interesting TAS IMO, but I try to go destroy as many Spuds as I can during the process. Hopefully I finish this by the end of Jan.
Edit: Encode added.
Also, just realized this, but this game could have some really big "Ends input early" potential. If I get enough lives, I can simply just end input early somewhere in the final mission and hopefully make it to the end (I have 11 lives by the end of this WIP).
Actually, now that I think about it, probably not. If I remember correctly, I think you have to press A to be brought back to the title screen (there's no credits or anything). I'll probably make two movies just in case then. :P
Edit edit: Apparently I collect a 1-Up but the game refused to increase my lives counter for some reason. Upset about this, since I’m already 18 minutes through the TAS and would have to basically redo a big portion of it.
