OverTop - (better) Tool Assisted Speedrun

This is an improvement over my previous attempt at TASing OverTop. It is more than one second faster, and it has officially been submitted to tasvideos.org
Will it be accepted? I hope so.
For ones that don't know what is a Tool-Assisted Speedrun, it means that I used a special emulator (Final Burn Alpha) which allowed me to used tools such as savestates and slow motion to overcome human limits and play as fast as possible. This is the result, a highly optimised run through the 7 levels of OverTop.
Enjoy :)

excellent run! impressive how you could shave off so much time compared to your first run. i hope that you will record a version on level 8 :)

Thanks :)

Anyway, level 8 in this game doesn't make the other cars faster, it just gives you less additional seconds between the stages, so the run would look exactly the same, except that maybe the countdown wouldn't be restored to 99 all the times.

Well, I was in the car this morning, completely lost on my way to the nearest McDonald's, when suddenly this yellow Dominator sped past. I thought it was going to McDonald's too, so I followed it. At first it was driving along the roads as normal, but soon it was speeding through forests and farms, smashing hay bales, and skidding around corners at 200km/h in icy conditions.

In other words, I came in second.

Don't follow the yellow car!

Hi! MARP record (considered the World Record in this game) is 3'10"21, just with skills, without tool-assistance. There was a tournament (K5) in 2006 where many players challenged and helped to increse the level of the record of this game. Nice game indeed!

I never owned Overtop, is it really that short of a game or is there multiple courses?

[Xiaopang3333]

ahhh i see. i already wondered what would change. still, always seeing that 99 after each checkpoint gets boring quickly, so it would actually be nice to see some changes there ;)
