This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see http://tasvideos.org/2821M.html. TAS originally published on 2015-04-13.

River Raid is an early vertical shooter where you fly a plane down a river and fire missiles to blow up helicopters, jets, ships and bridges.

As you can imagine, a tool-assisted speedrun turns this regular raid into an unstoppable barrage of destruction.

This movie obsoletes the previous one (http://tasvideos.org/2327M.html) due to Lord Tom (http://tasvideos.org/LordTom.html) getting 1 million points instead of 100,000, thus reaching the true end of the game.

This run was performed by a bot coded by the author, based on a Java port of the game he wrote himself. For more on the extensive work put into this TAS, see the author's comments (http://tasvideos.org/4648S.html).
