[TAS] Marble Madness II Arcade in 9:28 (931,900)
105Tool-assisted speedrun (TAS) of Marble Madness II Arcade in 9:28 (931,900)
-Timing starts from gaining control of the marble (when the "Time to finish practice" text box disappears) (0:13) and ends the frame that the goal tape goes blue after crossing the finish line on the King of the Mountain level (9:41).
-I disabled the "First-time messages" option in the game menu. This is so as not to waste time on the first level.
-This is my first TAS of this game. I was learning the game at the same time as I was doing the TAS. I'm sure there are many things that can be done to complete the game faster.
-It's far from a perfect speedrun. I didn't beat the best time which is on speedrun.com (https://youtu.be/UaeFFh-dslU). I watched this video only after completing my TAS.
-There are several shortcuts from this video that I will implement in my next TAS of this game.
-To do a real speedrun I shouldn't have made points in the 3 "Pin Bonus" because we lose a lot of time at the end of the bonus, but it was fun to do.
-I clocked this waste of time at 1:00. If you subtract that from my time, you get 8:28, which is close to 8:20 on speedrun.com.
-I did not saw that Jack Retro did a TAS in 7:55. Good Job, it will be hard to beat. https://youtu.be/Z404cmPCqgo
-UPDATE: Jack Retro did 1,721,750 in this video: https://youtu.be/i84Qh3SXg4w which is higher than I would have thought possible. And he (or someone) have found a way to display scores higher than 999,999, very interesting.
-When your marble becomes dizzy, the fastest way to stop this dizziness is to press the button repeatedly. The fastest you can press the button is 20 bps. Faster than that won't work.
-If you don't press the button, the dizziness can last more than 4 seconds (depending on how high you fell). Pressing at 20 bps reduces those 4 seconds to half a second.
