A speedrun of Balloon Barrage. This run was requested by MegaMan52, and part of his request was for me to do the run on an actual Game Boy instead of an emulator. I used to do this before, but when I started to use an emulator, I stuck to that because it was much easier to record videos with. The video quality is really poor here, and it's more of a pain in the neck to start over when I mess up. This is the very last time I'm going to use a cartridge for my videos, and it should be really obvious why.
The run itself was fairly good. There are a few places where I could have done it faster, though...
Oh, and one more thing. The instruction booklet calls this level "Construction Site Fight" and another level "Balloon Barrage". The manual most likely accidentally switched these names around, because the level that the manual calls "Balloon Barrage" has only one balloon, and takes place in a construction site, and the level that the manual calls "Construction Site Fight" (this one) hardly looks like a construction site, and its main gimmick is jumping on balloons.
