A TAS taking damage has to consistently be one of the most horrifying things humanly possible, either its going to be some absolutely insane looking trick, some RNG manipulation you'd never notice, or absolutely nothing, and the possibility of the first one is always terrifying.
27:20 okay, I LAUGHED then the checkpoint was grabbed here XD I'm just imagining the train rushing by and the plane swerving next to it, and Tails just grabs this with both his hands and hangs on, completely to the surprise of everyone.
It's funny how people complain about Tails being able to fly over entire levels in SA and yet here it is happening in the most refined 2D momentum-based sonic game out there lol
I'm kind of laughing at all the comments complaining about "You said no glitches" or similar to the boss skips. Flying over the top of the level is not a "glitch". That's the game behaving normally. You are supposed to be able to jump over the top of "soft" camera boundaries. Heck, the devs even seemed to be aware of the Flying Battery act 2 boss skip. There is that little bit of trivial extra platforming if you come from above to the act end capsule; they clearly designed that area.
@@natepion8449 that's what I called it when they grabbed the checkpoint early in Mirage Saloon while they were sent backwards, and just... Self destructed to come back to it quicker? Idk if that makes sense...
I feel like Tails is superior in any Sonic 2D games (even in speedruns) mostly because with his ability to fly, he can mostly skip a lot of parts, combine that with speed, and you mostly end up at the end in short time as possible. I feel like other Sonic games need to have Tails as a playable character, since having only Sonic to be playable may be boring every time (thats just my opinion)
Yeah, most Sonic games post-'06 just have Sonic playable and only Sonic, and it's really dull at this point. Sonic's friends really should be playable in more Sonic games from the last decade than just Mania and the three Boom games.
imagine this with encore mode, manipulating all the characters to get the best possible characters for the best sections, im sure the routing would be awesome, also 19:13 that sync had to be intentional
Shh. Don’t give ‘em any ideas. They may do something we might regret. Gonna break the world (for everybody’s sake I won’t assume their gender, just so a fight arouses. You know how people are these days).
Coming from whoisthisgit's Sonic Mania without Moving video, this feels like Tails is revisiting all of the zones by himself after having to fly around Sonic slowly through them before...
I wonder how much time is lost vs Sonic from not having elemental shield actions and drop dash Given all those times you had to break to a near complete stop to spin dash. And how much time is saved by the ability to fly (while preserving speed!) along with _Tails exclusive_ routes and skips. (there were several skips the Sonic+Tails TAS could have but opted not to, those should not count as time loss for this)
Note that player 2 directly controlling Tails still might not result in all Tails' skips being doable by Sonic & Tails The game will "reset" P2 Tails if he gets too far off screen. And there is a lot of "off-screen action" in this route.
None of the routing looked too incredibly out of reach until PGz2. Whether or not you could do that without TAS, skipping that whole level looked awesome!
When you skip 10 sec in a speedrun video and the game skips 10 hrs. Btw love from India ❤️❤️ Edit: Like in TAS speedruns, what actually happens. In this TAS, there are frame perfect jumps and the spin dashes are instantly 7 tap spin dash. So I would like to know what the tool helps in.
As one wise man said: A Speedrun is how fast you can beat the game, while a TAS is *how fast a game can be beaten.*
A speedrun is done by human, a TAS is done by machine?
@@DialingDock2 sort of,
Aaryn Hale has put a more detailed response below
@@GreatGameTutorials Glad I got that clarified.
Well I wouldn’t say solely done by a machine, but by a human with the help of a machine, considering you still need to put in the inputs yourself, but your point still stands. I’m just a guy who likes overcomplicating everything for no real reason.
@@MrMemeguy-uu7xm Okay, so a speedrun is done by human, and TAS is done by human and machine.
Honestly, I really like how in Sonic TASes, the camera gives up 90% of the time.
if you watched the last TAS they posted you would know, its only like 2%
Same
😳😳😮😮😲😲impossivel
I mean, it ain't like the camera didn't occasionally give up during casual playthroughs of Sonic 2. Especially in levels like Chemical Plant zone.
Yeah same with you
I love how it briefly turned into expert level Puyo Puyo gameplay during Chemical Plant's boss.
Yea, no mercy at all-
I thought you were being figurative. Nope. Its literally puyo puyo lol.

I really like how the game sometimes lets you outrun the camera a bit just to have that extra little feeling for how fast you are going.
For once, Sonic beat the cameraman
@@Sholver he’s done that in the Genesis/Mega Drive games too
@@CrasherX2000 🤓
That one mechanic, running on water, and the music made Sonic 3 my favorite out of the classics

A TAS taking damage has to consistently be one of the most horrifying things humanly possible, either its going to be some absolutely insane looking trick, some RNG manipulation you'd never notice, or absolutely nothing, and the possibility of the first one is always terrifying.
And sometimes it's just damage boosting which is the most dissapointing
Here's Every Boss That Was Skipped:
*Egg Spider*
*Heavy Shinobi*
*Heavy Magician*
*Egg Octopus*
Poor Eggman. He went through all the work of creating those machines only to be completely ignored.

Tails really took seriously the "gotta go fast" 💀💀

This is my first time ever seeing Sonic Mania, being played only using TAS Commands. Awesome TAS btw.

This takes “Unstoppable speed and timing!” To a whole new level.
Sorry I'm late, but does that matter? I can still watch a pure masterpiece like this
You’re late?
Finally a game where you can feel the speed
Ok I wasn't expecting a death damage boost in mirage saloon what-

What's a death damage boost?
@@natepion8449 that's what I called it when they grabbed the checkpoint early in Mirage Saloon while they were sent backwards, and just... Self destructed to come back to it quicker? Idk if that makes sense...
Bro there were like 4 boss skips in this whole run, like
•Flying battery
•Press garden
•Mirage Saloon
•Oil Ocean
The camera is literally like: "SLOW DOWN, I CAN'T KEEP UP"
Both reg and plus version are perfection to the franchise. now just wait for TAS with knuckles, mighty then ray (plus)

Finally a sonic mania tas! I've wanted one of these for so long thank you shiro
god i love Tails TAS. This shit is insane. Good video hope to see more Tails TAS (or maybe a SONIC SHUFFLE TAS???) in the future
Ah, the only platformer where being at least competent at Puyo Puyo is required for speedrunning.
The Tails speedrun and movement tech is immaculate.
I love hearing the stupidly fast spin dash charging
Also what's with the music not playing in the 5th special stage?
When tails gets tired of catching up to sonic so he beats the game himself.
Tails Assisted Speedrun.
Couldn't do it without Tails!
Skipping the boss fights is a new level of stlye
imagine this with encore mode, manipulating all the characters to get the best possible characters for the best sections, im sure the routing would be awesome, also 19:13 that sync had to be intentional

Three cheers Shiro Paradox and Sonic Mania as Tails "All Emeralds" Speedrun
Tails goes maximum speed in all zone remixes and movement & tech glitch (running + flying + jumping + maximum speed)

He's literally flying through the game
I didn't knew Tails could "has a secret path" in Flying Battery.
That skip tho.
honestly the music in this game slaps even if you only hear it for 30-45 seconds at a time.
It would’ve been really cool if super tails had a flicky army of death in this game.
