In this video, DarkXoa and dwangoAC provide commentary for Sniq's TAS of Super Metroid. This encode was made by Dimon12321 using a fixed graphics encode originally encoded by Spikestuff linked in https://tasvideos.org/3653M.

Super Metroid is a platform game and a follow-up to Metroid II. Like the previous games in the series, it is not divided into separate levels; the planet Zebes is an open world which Samus traverses back and forth. This world is divided into rooms separated with doors which must be shot to be opened. Shooting is also used to open up secret passages, some of which contain nifty bonuses, but finding most of them is required to proceed in the game.

This run not only beats the previous any% ( https://tasvideos.org/3362M ) but also obsoletes the previous reverse boss order ( https://tasvideos.org/2078M ) TAS due to similar routes. This is an improvement of 1:40.95 over the predecessor movie. As well as an improvement over the reverse boss order TAS by 10:40.51.

Sniq makes short work of Mother Brain and her space pirates, largely due to a major route change. Please read the author's submission notes ( https://tasvideos.org/5833S ) for more information.
