Death Star Battle is loosely based on the events of the film Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi. Your task is to destroy the Death Star before its construction is finished. You start the task outside the shield perimeter of the Death Star, where you have to combat different imperial vessels and avoid the death ray while waiting for an opportunity to slip through one of the random openings in the energy shield. After reaching the Death Star, you must reduce its structure up to the point where you can hit the core. In the following destruction of the station, you must avoid collision with the Death Star's debris.

It was decided that only the first round of the game contains meaningful content, so in this TAS, jlun2 ( https://tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/jlun2 ) uses luck manipulation and a precise shooting angle to finish it in less than 9 seconds. It is only the 11th shortest movie on this site, with Super 3D Portals 6 ( https://tasvideos.org/3475M ) beating it by around 6.5 seconds.
