Super Mario 64 "16 star" TAS by Swordless Link (14:27)

A tool-assisted speedrun of Super Mario 64 by me.

16 star is an arbitrary category now, but I don't care. I made this because I knew people wanted to see an optimised 16 star run. It uses the lobby glitch to access BitDW and WF (skips CCM in favour of another 2 LLL stars), and ultimately, saved 41 seconds over the last 16 star run (15:08). It's also 2 minutes faster than the very first SM64 16 star TAS.

Thanks to Robert Z, for regularly helping me by finding more improvements, and actively helping out in the run, and strong support from the start.

Thanks to BrianRuleZ for helping me a lot towards the end of the run. Bowser in the Sky was largely his input.

Thanks to AKA and Rikku for support from the start, and checking my WIPs for improvements.

Thanks to ZeldaXMaster for encoding the run.

Enjoy!
