Tool-Assisted Speedrun (TAS) of Bomberman / Dynablaster / Atomic Punk Arcade 4 players in 12:22

Time starts upon gaining control of Bomberman in the round 1-1 at 0:31
Time ends when you lose control of Bomberman after killing the last boss at 13:21
Minus the round 5-6 bug demo from 10:15 to 10:43 (28 seconds)
Total: 12:50 - 0:28 = 12:22

Notes:
-Power-ups do not carry over between stages
-Bombs explode 150 frames (2.5 seconds) after being dropped.
-Bomb explosion lasts 28 frames. A wall takes 42 frames to disappear.

-As soon as a bomb explodes, on the first frame of the explosion animation, you can drop a new bomb.
-If you drop a bomb on an explosion, the bomb will explode instantly.
-If you are invincible, you can chain exploding bombs. So you can make a path of explosive bombs as long as you are invincible
-But you can't walk through walls this way because the wall doesn't disappear as long as there is an explosion nearby (42 frames). If a bomb explodes near a wall that is in its vanishing animation, it will restart the vanishing wall animation at the first frame. So if you stay near a wall and constantly detonate bombs, the wall will never disappear.

-When a round starts, you have 300 frames of invincibility. You can use this time to take out as many walls and enemies as possible by chaining exploding bombs.
-The invincibility power up last 500 frames.

-On the boss round 5-6 (and 6-6) it is possible to make an enemy come out of the screen.
-I demonstrate it at 10:17 (and you can see that the last boss can do it too (12:37))
-Bosses need at least 4 consecutive tiles in one direction to move back and forth between 2 bombs (or a bomb and a wall) (10:04)
-If not, the boss may take an illegal direction and go through a wall.
-If the boss goes through a wall and respawns somewhere else, he is no longer on the same playing field as the players. There is no longer a collision between the boss and the players and the players bombs.
-In this case you cannot complete the boss and you will have to wait for the timer to reach 0. Except for boss 6-6 because after a while the boss will warp somewhere in the playing field.

-Now that I've seen the finished video, I think I could do some of the early levels faster, now that I have more experience with the game.
-I'm sure the Boss levels could be done faster by learning and exploiting their patterns.
