[TAS] Genesis Flashback: The Quest for Identity by Alyosha in

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/...
TAS originally published on 2015-05-14
Flashback is a Prince of Persia ( tasvideos.org/... ) style platformer for the Sega Genesis. It has some major glitches which allow for large portions of this otherwise long game to be skipped. The present TAS implements a new version of the Walk through walls glitch along with improved routing to save over a minute over the previous (formerly, the longest non-obsoleted) run ( tasvideos.org/... ).

It's the producers of Death Tower that I feel sorry for. An hour long, prime time, Saturday night TV slot, and they get about 3 minutes of programming, and one death, that week.

This game is a hidden treasure so underrated

[@illuminated33rd]

That was an awesome ending!

[@korruption6]

This redefines 'walkthrough'.

Rotoscoping still looks freaking fantastic. The only dated thing is the lack of pedestrians in New Washington. You see can see corners being cut, e.g. the static civilians on Earth.

Walls: am I a joke to you?

[@tedpilledtonysoprano5512]

Lol, the subway is an illusion, the districts are spaced one screen apart. So much of New Washington is just there to waste Conrad's time.

[@yuriykalegin6544]

Pretty cool, man, but can you get this game one more time without bugusing?

[@tedpilledtonysoprano5512]

I've always wondered why the cops lack helmets in the Genesis version. To de-humanize them so you don't kill 'real' people on the Super Nintendo? Companies would err on the side of caution with Nintendo, because if they didn't like something, it would jam up the whole process and cost you your deadline.
