[TAS] Genesis Sonic Spinball by Flip in  

OHOHOHOOHO BELIEVE ME. He deserved so much worse than that *-__-)

you dont remember it cuz like the rest of us you never beat it 🤣

@@user-ix6vv8lo5jhow do you know?

The boss: OH FU- (Momentos mas tarde…) ((BOSS IS DED.))

Level 3 was awsome! Good job! 30 secs!

To be fair, most skips on most games are found by real time runners, as they have had more time to find stuff. Not only that, but people are always running games for PBs, whereas new TASes usually only get created once there's a known skip to implement.

You are the fastest thing alive!

Brent Birdsinger Sonic Spinball was made in 2 months using C. When you break stuff, you BREAK stuff. Of course, since this TAS isn’t playing the game how you would’ve played the game as a kid, you would never see these issues.

That's because this is a tool assisted speedrun it's not actually a real speed run so as far as speedruns go these are the pathetic drug-addicted son where is the father is the hundred percent or any percent speedrun

@@Mr.Death101 They don't pretend to be "real" speed runs, it's a different thing entirely, suppose it's like saying dramas are the pathetic drug addicted son of reality shows because they are scripted, if you give a real console the inputs it will behave the same, it takes a lot of work to make a good TAS, going frame by frame and finding the best way to accomplish something, trying to get the frame count down, watching the RAM to get good position and speed, it's about showing just what can be done taken to it's limit, scripting a TAS is hard work, it's only if you pass it off as human gameplay it's an issue. I consider this a different thing entirely and the communities help each other with information, I discovered two major glitches in S3K using tools and another in the 4th bonus stage of Ristar using slowdown and save states and they are essential in any%!

If you play the game the right way, it's a decent enough challenge.

My net video will cover the method ;D

Yeah, the lag reduction in this game must've been a bitch and a half to optimize. The game was written on a tight schedule in C and it shows that the compilers back then were quite a bit worse than humans. Exodus actually lets you set the 68k's clock speed, but sadly, that emulator doesn't have any output capture utilities, so you'd have to also have a beast of a machine to be able to run this game at full speed in real time. Maybe it's possible to fork e.g. genplus-gx and modify it to support changing the clock speed, but that sounds like an endeavour for someone other than me.

Hyper hmm interesting.

Selicre Apparently some SNES mini emulator has an option that makes “slowdown be gone”. Sonic Spinball benefits due to being a C game. While the Genesis CAN handle C unlike the slow SNES, it’s not exactly the fastest, and I doubt you could have delta time on video games back then
