HappyLee | SMBbot plays Super Mario Bros. World 7 in 07:00 @HappyLeeHL | Uploaded 6 years ago | Updated 9 hours ago
To skip the repetitive process and see final playback, go to 05:49.
Inspired by MarI/O and LuigI/O, I've made my own SMBbot, except that it's not AI, it's what I call an "Artificial Idiot", for it's really DUMB. It doesn't read map, doesn't read level information, doesn't evolve, doesn't have much memory. It basically just jumps randomly, and loads savestates after dying or bumping into a wall.
Yet the performance is very satisfying for such a simple script. It's able to complete the entire World 7 in 07:00 without Turbo, with only 469 retry, and in speedrun style!
7-2 is the hardest stages for World 7, but this time SMBbot got lucky enough to enter the pipe in the second try. 7-4 is much easier than 4-4.
After some manual upgrade, now it can solve every level of SMB with no problem. I'll keep it this way (but a bit smarter) and see how far it can go!
