[TAS] NES Dragon's Lair (USA) by ktwo in
This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/...
TAS originally published on 2023-08-23
Dragon's Lair is much better known in its incarnations for other platforms as an FMV game with only slight amounts of control over the player's action. The NES version is more of a traditional platformer, but very smooth animation for the era and funny-looking characters inspired by the cartoon graphics of the other versions - this includes the final boss, who isn't seen very much in this run thanks to abuse of the game mechanics.
ktwo ( tasvideos.org/... ) improves the previous TAS ( tasvideos.org/... ) done on the USA release of the game by 0.17 seconds, thanks to better optimisation. Note that there are differences in execution for some of the levels when compared to the Japanese release. You can watch the TAS of the Japanese release of the game here. ( tasvideos.org/... )

Even on tas that first screen is hell
That end screen... a face only a mother could love.

At least the princess is still cute.
Even with TAS watching this makes me feel like I'm on a heavy sedative.

You'll love the PAL version
Man, I would've been pissed being a kid in the 90s having this game. It's almost impossible!
If anyone's wondering about the USA bit there, the American version runs slower than intended, making an already difficult game much more miserable to play through.

damn, even PAL was faster? Now we know how they felt.
It's so satisfying, knowing this game is a purge, as far as i remember, when you take the wrong floor, you restart all the game.
3:46 Anyone else reminded of Symphony of the Night's floating skulls that basically moved just like this? ... was this the inspiration? xD

Did they live happily ever after or not? The elusiveness is killing me.

this game is slower than astronaut kick xD
-- Uh, Bob... The game you made for last 3 years is just 5 minutes long. Make it like 500 minutes long, dude. -- Dude, like the deadline is tomorrow morning. All I can do is make everything kill you in 1 hit. -- Sounds good to me, man.
This game slaps!!
Super competitive times on a game everyone hates
JDG would love to see that TAS lol
figures that you can only hear the best music in the game if you actually manage to beat it
Funny enough, this game holds the candle on having Dirk being the most colorful NES character.
Even human players speedrunning this game has suffered through torture if highly skilled.
I hate this game but was fun to watch korone play it for 18h 😂
gosh
Well that took 6 minutes too long
If only you could take multiple hits (by everything) then maybe - MAYBE this would have been playable...maybe.
I hate this game. Some are bad, others hard, but this is one of the more infuriating experiencies in gaming.
Even with a TAS, this game is impossibly slow
