Please tell me how you did the trick of going over the ceiling in that one room. I tried doing that for a good hour or more tonight and never figured out how.

[NES Atlas]

Unfortunately I can't help you as I've only borrowed the gameplay footage for this video. Check the description for a link to tasvideos where the original player performed that trick and should be able to give you a breakdown. Good luck!

you got to do kid chameleon on sega genesis if u get to the sega games..

[NES Atlas]

Okay I'll add it to the list ;)

How did you make this video again? Or did you say? that's cool to have the entire level in view while playing.

[NES Atlas]

Thanks for watching! The video was created by manually shifting the gameplay footage over an atlas map frame-by-frame. Actually now that I think of it this video is more like the reverse of that... I shifted the atlas map underneath the footage a lot more than the other way around. Does that make sense? :]

Not bad! Pretty clever trick going through the ceiling in that one area. I was wondering how you'd get to those blocks below. I must admit the Thunderbird fight is a wee bit over my head. Haha, that doesn't look like the downward thrust, although that would be pretty cool if someone could pull that off. About the best I've done is beat him with Level 1 Attack.

I have looked at a screen capture tool, but instead of using it to re-create the background I was thinking of using it to get enemy animations. Therefore I can animate the enemies off-screen.

Using the capture tool would be an interesting alternative though compared to the frame-by-frame editing as I do it now. I might have to give it a shot sometime ;)

@nesatlas and how did you do that trick?

[bouchandre]

3:34 HOW??? That guy's impossible...

[JMan1380]

Most epic.

I think players were expected to either try everything, luck out, know already, or like the manual in the first game, draw maps themselves.
