For those curious because I kinda figured this out the more I saw it happen: Every reset is made specifically to skip cutscenes, this is for every time a new character shows up, their introduction minigame and cutscene, and their post stage cutscene for when you beat the boss fight. As the moment these occur, it sets a flag in the game that allows you to skip it on a restart which is miles faster than just watching it all.
There's actually a TAS category where instead of just playing through a game, you also "playaround" with it while playing through. There's a rather famous Super Scribblenauts run like this. Maybe this would qualify? By the way, the level 3 bosses of this game can suck it. They go on until the heat death of the universe, I swear
if you cant gain any frames you can edge them i guess technical answer: some minigames dont end as soon as you do them, you have to wait until the timer runs out in order for it to count
The TAS does do time savings, you can only save time on microgames that have double the normal time limit by clearing or failing them before half the time has expired (which is why some microgames are intentionally failed, or the TAS stops playing around before the bomb timer shows up)
I love how the TAS does the speed run legitimately while also doing its own thing.
Especially when it thinks it's on rhythm heaven
10:29 the power calligraphy is crazy
vinfel

23:03 "You're a machine!"
IT KNOWS😮
I love how this turned the very methods of 'do a thing fast' into a comedic artform. Wah.
13:35 I am reminded of Grayfruit’s retort from his playthrough of _Move It!_ that Ashley is a _Touhou_ character. Maybe he was right.
9:24 Mmm... Ketchup rectangle 😋
10:29 I see that rhythm heaven reference.

That one was still a speedrun, just doing things very slightly slower for more entertaining results.
Yes, TAS can also stand for "Tool Assisted Superplay"
@@oreothestepswitcher I see
I used to have the world record human speedrun for this game until actually good speedrunners picked it up, lmao
wait holy shit you're still around?? whats up man
@@Zennan Hi! 😊
The best part about the TAS is we can tell you had a ton of fun making it.
hey nice tas! i was sad when it ended, you did a great job making each minigame entertaining
i like how half the video is resets
You should see the Wario Land 4 speedruns.
18:34 this guy is 215 weeks pregnant oh my god
Awesome video!! I remember playing the mic stages as a kid in the car and the game just beating itself
These animations of how you win the microgames using TAS are so satisfying to watch.
Didnt know of this til today LMAO, good work!
This is incredibly satisfying
13:38 this will definitely affect the fish population
10:29 Epic reference
I saw someone talk about the Ashley boss of this tas on twitter
same
@@stratodough What about it? Good dodging or shooting? Seems like a nothingburger to me.
@@notsyzagts7967nah they just abused the hitbox of the Earth only being half the size of the planet, sort of like Touhou project TASes
Why is bro edging the minigames
if you cant gain any frames you can edge them i guess
technical answer: some minigames dont end as soon as you do them, you have to wait until the timer runs out in order for it to count
This is so beast
13:48 average touhou play
Nice Results with this TAS. But I'm not sure about Noxxa though...
Are you submitting this to TASVideos? Maybe it's worth a shot.
probably
the submission process is time-comsuming
what do all the multiple resets accomplish? I mean, there wasn't even a menu, just watch the intro then reset again
it skips basically every intro and outro cutscene, as well as whenever new characters/toys are unlocked
2:27 how i be at the urinal
Aren't there small time savings if you complete minigames before the timer finishes? Is this more of a stylish speedrun than a fast speedrun?
The TAS does do time savings, you can only save time on microgames that have double the normal time limit by clearing or failing them before half the time has expired (which is why some microgames are intentionally failed, or the TAS stops playing around before the bomb timer shows up)
23:55 Game over bruh
Yeah it’s faster to lose that one
