the tempo at which you got through the first bonus area in this video made me chuckle. Ghostie never stood a chance. Also, I didn't know cactus Jack was that glitchy, that was very interesting to see.
I'm typing this comment while watching, which may show, but how did you get 3-S2 to start when entering 4-2, and what exactly are the benefits to that? I guess I'll see how that influences your run through the fourth world whenever you upload your next video, but this was kinda confusing alright.
@ilovemadnesscombat There are no benefits, I just wanted to introduce a "wtf" moment to mess with the viewer (this is a TAS after all). After you select a stage, while the game is fading out, you can still control things. The game doesn't load a level until after the fadeout, so I just pressed left twice when the screen was mostly dark to switch to 3-S2.
@RingRush Ah yes, I've seen an exploit like that before in other games too, it allowed me to play the last level of SSX Tricky on the GBA even though it was locked. You did get a whole lot of time during that fade out, though, so it wasn't really hard to discover (still it took me until the second last level to find out).
