Flashback tool-assisted walkthrough
7So here it is. Recorded from the REminiscence port using savestates but no cheats or anything. I tried to make this as exciting as possible without any commentary. You can look forward to seeing me:
- avoid most enemies and make some of them hit and even kill each other;
- exploit the heck out of enemy AI and Conrad's invincibility frames;
- get hit only four times (two and a half of those times - for comedic value), not a single time on levels 3-6;
- not kill a single replicant on level 3;
- never use the force field while fighting the cops;
- not kill a single morph on level 6 or during either brain battle of level 7;
- spare every single exploding mouse;
- get through very tough situations unscathed (including that one falling mine on level 2) and do some creative navigation every once in a while.
The only part of this video that isn't authentic from how REminiscence works is the credits - the music cuts off when they start, so I inserted the Phillip Howard Clark's diary music track in there, and that track is surprisingly long, elaborate and good.
On that note, REminiscence is quite a bad port. I'm certain it adds some bugs, such as music stopping during the holocube message, wrong cutscene playing when you insert the cartridge, morphs walking on air, credits stopping abruptly in the middle of "PRODUCERS" being typed out, and such. You can't remap controls or resize the window or even record the window itself with FRAPS. The Amiga version's music used for it is utter crap, and the sounds are all messed up. The savestate system also sucks complete balls for trying to make footage seamless. It doesn't affect music, password displays on top of the screen, and some enemies and other entities reset or vanish after you load. It was a major pain in the butt to make this walkthrough, but also really fun to puzzle my way through the game's many encounters, and in the end I'm satisfied with it. Hope you enjoy!
Now some stats for the curious.

Hoo boy.
