Double post but eh.
Introducing, the first
PROPER release of my hack, complete with new name. This is Version 1 folkz. :O
The level order is now set in stone. The remaning 5 levels will not be part of the "main game" but will still be accessible from the stage select screen.
You may note the "TAS" in the rom filename. This is because I am TASing it as we speak (literally) :O
Any and all future updates will not carry the TAS tag.
Ill also post my WIP thus far. All the Old times, aside from Lush Hill were done WITHOUT slowdown, just savestates. In my current run, I abused slowdown to the maxxxx
Old Lush Hill time: 0:32
New Lush Hill time: 0:31
Not much to say there, just finetuning
Old Jungle Canyon Time: 0:56
New Jungle Canyon Time: 0:38
Somehow I completly ignored the speed shoes on my previous run o_0
Old Badnik Plains Time: 0:21 (With a horrible mistake)
New Badnik Plains Time: 0:16
Discovered a more optimal strat than the spring bounce that requires frame perfect timing, and optomised it as best I could, naturally.
Old Twilight Coaster Time: 0:28 or thereabouts IIRC
New Twilight Coaster Time: 0:25
Threw in some more ramp jumps and skipped the invincibility at the start.
Old Purple Pitfall Time: 1:53
New Purple Pitfall Time: 1:19
Utilised the first speed shoes box for a nice shortcut and a different route in the latter portion for a hell of a faster time.
More updates as events warrant
Oh and I challenge someone to beat me at this.
