A TAS taking damage has to consistently be one of the most horrifying things humanly possible, either its going to be some absolutely insane looking trick, some RNG manipulation you'd never notice, or absolutely nothing, and the possibility of the first one is always terrifying.

Finally a game where you can feel the speed

I'm kind of laughing at all the comments complaining about "You said no glitches" or similar to the boss skips. Flying over the top of the level is not a "glitch". That's the game behaving normally. You are supposed to be able to jump over the top of "soft" camera boundaries. Heck, the devs even seemed to be aware of the Flying Battery act 2 boss skip. There is that little bit of trivial extra platforming if you come from above to the act end capsule; they clearly designed that area.

Tails goes maximum speed in all zone remixes and movement & tech glitch (running + flying + jumping + maximum speed)

I feel like Tails is superior in any Sonic 2D games (even in speedruns) mostly because with his ability to fly, he can mostly skip a lot of parts, combine that with speed, and you mostly end up at the end in short time as possible. I feel like other Sonic games need to have Tails as a playable character, since having only Sonic to be playable may be boring every time (thats just my opinion)

Wow, this TAS guy sounds pretty good at games.. How can I met him to game up?

DAAAAAAANNNNNNNNG!! You did that with Tails ultra fast getting those emeralds of chaos!

Coming from whoisthisgit's Sonic Mania without Moving video, this feels like Tails is revisiting all of the zones by himself after having to fly around Sonic slowly through them before...

The day Miles "Tails" Prower decided to become his own hero.

Tiny tails tas is the best

3:19 "Thanks for saving u... AUUUUGHHHH" "Whoops, guess i forgot that they can't fly like me"

I didn't knew Tails could "has a secret path" in Flying Battery. That skip tho.

This is really good well done

16:14 it looked like the robot was genuinely scared because tails broke through the pile of boxes to get him

I wonder how much time is lost vs Sonic from not having elemental shield actions and drop dash Given all those times you had to break to a near complete stop to spin dash. And how much time is saved by the ability to fly (while preserving speed!) along with _Tails exclusive_ routes and skips. (there were several skips the Sonic+Tails TAS could have but opted not to, those should not count as time loss for this)

@TechSY730

Жыл бұрын

Note that player 2 directly controlling Tails still might not result in all Tails' skips being doable by Sonic & Tails The game will "reset" P2 Tails if he gets too far off screen. And there is a lot of "off-screen action" in this route.

I listen to these speedruns while working cuz the sounds are just mesmerizing

This entire video in a nutshell: Tails being a badass

Dude great video bravo make more please

This is sick

The guy turned talis into the fastest thing alive

Is tails & sonics controls the same in emerald chase stages? The tas looks the same

Sonic and TAS have one same detail: both are speed

When you skip 10 sec in a speedrun video and the game skips 10 hrs. Btw love from India ❤️❤️ Edit: Like in TAS speedruns, what actually happens. In this TAS, there are frame perfect jumps and the spin dashes are instantly 7 tap spin dash. So I would like to know what the tool helps in.

None of the routing looked too incredibly out of reach until PGz2. Whether or not you could do that without TAS, skipping that whole level looked awesome!
