[TAS] Spongebob Squarepants - Anchovy Assault: 43,836ft
332With the Linux TASing application LibTAS being updated to 1.4.3, it is now finally possible to TAS older Flash games. I played several Spongebob related games when I was a kid, so I decided to test things out with this rather simple one. While savestates were mostly not working, this game is simple enough to not really need them for a demonstration.
It resembles the Home Run Contest in Super Smash Bros., where the goal is to knock the opponent as far away as possible. The initial launch is simply a matter of mashing the space bar as much as possible, while the section after is just timing button presses correctly so the arrow is inside the green. If it's in the black, the projectile misses; if it's in the red but to the left, the anchovy comes crashing down; if it's in the red but to the right, the anchovy stalls a bit before falling down, making it the better option.
Even with TAS levels of precision (And fortunately no input buffer, making it faster than Brawl by two frames), there comes a point where the arrow just cannot land inside the green area, meaning you have to take a bad throw (Missing doesn't do anything to change it from my limited testing) to move on to a recovery.
Even with that, I'm sure this can go on forever; the lack of savestates just makes testing that very impractical.
