Tool-assisted superplay (TAS) of Marble Madness Arcade 221,580 pts
This video has been obsoleted by : youtu.be/U_HWUzSExa8
The goal of this TAS is to achieve the highest possible score.
Difficulty Setting: Very Easy.
Note:
-I set the game at Very Easy to have the 65 sec at the start at level 2 instead of 60.
-At the end, I move around because moving gives you points, so I convert the remaining time into points.
-Thanks to SprintGod for his TAS of Marble Madness on Genesis. Almost all the skips he uses also work on the arcade version. youtube.com/watch?v=WI0Ndea8FXs

This video show how to get some humanoids in the sky on Defender Arcade.
-On the first wave, pick up all 10 humanoids (8 or 9 may also work)
-Choose a point on the ground that is very low.
-Stop moving forward
-Put the humanoids on the ground
-Since the humanoids cannot be on top of each other, they will scatter and, if you are low enough, some will appear on the top of the screen. They will slowly move downward.
-You will also see that any enemies on the screen will be teleported elsewhere to reduce the load.")

-Time begins when gaining control of Pac-Man (0:08), and ends when the Round Cleared message appears on the last stage (17:56).
Settings:

-Game End: 19 Round
-I didnt eat any ghosts or fruits because of the time lost for the animation.
-It took me around 7 hours of work to do this TAS compared to around 24 hours for my other TAS where the goal was to get a high score.
-I did this TAS because I was tired of waiting for the ghosts to regroup while I did the other TAS.

Tool-assisted speed-run (TAS) of 20 rounds of Tron (Arcade).
Rounds 1 to 14 are a decent speed-run.
But the Light Cycles could be optimized as seen on round 13 (9:51) 18 (13:41) 19 (14:10) 20 (14:31).
Notes:
-On round 15 16 17, I lose time because I have fun with the Light Cycles.
-On the last round I enter the flashing circle at the last possible moment (15:24), like I did in the arcades for a higher score (I dont remember how near 0 I got at the time).
-On two occasion I use the warp to kill the last tank (11:52 and 13:25). The destination of the warp is constant (when tasing), but the rng is influenced by the angle of the canon. So, by trial and error, I could warp nearly where I wanted by rotating the canon before warping.
-Its amusing to see that the MCP cone is super slow on round 17 (13:05).
-The explosions of the colour blocks in the MCP Cone are deadly, so you have to wait for them to disappears. But the explosions of the Bugs are harmless.

Tool-assisted superplay (TAS) of Out Run Arcade (1/5) 47,485,930 pts Goal A
GOAL:
-Determine what the maximum score is for each goals.
-After obtaining statistics for all legs, determine the best path for each goals.
-I used the normal rule (from Twin Galaxies) for this game:
-The boost start is allowed, but any use of the off-road trick is strictly prohibited.
-So, when the car go outside the road, it should slow down (1:39 2:47).
-To do a boost start:
-Select Hi gear and do not press the accelerator all the way down before the start.
-press the accelerator only at the last second.
-At the same time, select Low gear for about 15 frames, then select Hi gear.
-For more information on this TAS series on OutRun and an explanation of why RLRR is the only path to a high score, read the description of this video: https://youtu.be/cjYwf9GhLn8

Tool-assisted superplay (TAS) of Golgo 13 銃声の鎮魂歌 (GOLGO mode) (Juusei no Requiem) (Requiem for a Gunshot) Arcade $42,703,790 Accuracy 999.2
This is the third (of three) Golgo 13 game.
If you want to see this game with all the cutscenes: https://youtu.be/c7Z1gc2Ke9E
You can see my TAS of the first game here: https://youtu.be/fA7pn5doCAc
There is more information about the rating system for this game in the description of my first video.
I also did a second TAS of the first game with better precision and without cutscenes here: https://youtu.be/08Ip7rvnp64
And here is my TAS of the second game: https://youtu.be/K4mU0Prlt1U
Golgo mode
-To trigger GOLGO mode:
-After inserting money, shoot the center of the 6 characters of the title Golgo 13 (ゴルゴ13) in reverse order (There are actually 5 characters but the ル (ru) require one shot for each branch)
-It seems that you have to wait at least 1/2 second between each shot but there is no maximum time, I tested with 5 seconds between each letter and it worked well.
-You should hear the music from the beginning of the game Xevious (credit included)
-After a few seconds, you should see a rotating panel (Bacura from Xevious) appear at the top of the screen
-Shoot the rotating panel 13 times
-An extra life flag from Xevious will appear, shoot it
-The title should change color and the message GOLGO mode appears in Japanese
-Press the button to start the game
-In this mode you get the stages in random order (except 10 and 20) and there are no cutscenes. The game doesnt even tell you what to shoot since youre supposed to know the game well if you choose this mode.
Stages
-Stage 1 - Heavy snowfall area 0:32
-GOAL: Shoot the 2 ropes causing an avalanche which stops the train.
-Stage 2 - Maximum Effective Range 0:59
-GOAL: Wipe out the intelligence bureaus special forces.
-Precision is measured only on the last man (the 7th)
-I got 998.9, couldnt find a 1000 (like in my other TAS)
-Stage 3 - The shoes of the mafia 1:31
-GOAL: Shoot the heel of the shoe
-I did the 1000 points a bit faster than in my other TAS.
-Stage 4 - Overload 1:59
-GOAL: Stop the artificial heart by threatening the target
-You must shoot in the gray circle near the targets feet.
-I shot 46 times, the chart shows about 30 shots, which is probably the maximum shots visible in this chart (but you can hear them all).
-I got 1000 because all my shots were in the gray circle. (Even though the chart shows some outside the circle)
-Its not necessary to fire that many shots, about 12 in the circle seems to do the trick, the important thing is to force the man to keep running.
-Stage 5 - China syndrome 2:33
-GOAL: Shoot what is shown on the photo.
-This time around I have found the 1000 points a few frames later (0:85 sec vs 0:95 sec)
-Stage 6 - The land of Sand Dust-fluttering 2:59
-GOAL: Shoot the front tire of the car
-This time I could not find a1000 points as early as in my other TAS (0.90 vs 1:00)
-Stage 7 - The grape color tradition 3:26
-GOAL: Shoot the wine bottle
-Im sure there must be an opportunity earlier, I found a few but none allowed me to get 1000 points.
-I was able to get the 1000 points at exactly the same time as in my other TAS, It seem that the movement of the men is not random.
-Stage 8 - Gentlemens Agreement 3:56
-GOAL: Shoot two targets in a row.
-I got 995.6 this time which is a bit better than my other TAS.
-You have to be accurate on 2 targets, which is much harder.
-Stage 9 - The hunting dog 4:22
-GOAL: Shoot the man identified by the dog
-I got 996.5, I waited a bit for the head to move but I didnt find a 1000, like in the second game.
-Stage 10 - The Bloodstained gene 4:50
-GOAL: Confront a bioengineered, enhanced warrior.
-This stage is in 2 parts:
1 - Shoot the man 4 times
2 - Shoot him in the head
-You can shoot as many bullets as you want in the first part of this stage, you only lose time, only the accuracy of the shot in the second part gives you points

Tool-assisted superplay (TAS) of Alpine Ski Arcade 339,541 points (TG settings)
This video was done with the SET 1 of the Alpine Ski roms in MAME.
The game was set to Twin Galaxies settings.
Settings:
800-2000 Point Bonus For A Successful Downhill Jump
2:00 Minute Starting Timer
End of Race Time Bonus 0:20 (contrary to what Mame is displaying)
1st Game Extension @ 10,000 Points
2nd Game Extension @ 10,000 Points
-Im sure its possible to make a few more points, but with this setting, with this version of the game, I dont see how it would be possible to make 100,000+ points more (See the TG site).
-Its not clear to me if I should slow down a bit to get more points or if I shouldnt bother with 100 points to go faster. So I did a bit of both to see the difference.
-Perhaps by analyzing the data that I list next, we could find the best way. The timing is calculated with the timer on Youtube and not precise enough to work with I think.

Tool-assisted speedrun (TAS) of Cruisn USA Arcade (1/3) Devastator in 22:05.96
GOAL:
-Complete the game as quickly as possible
-Try to beat the times on Twin Galaxies at:
https://www.twingalaxies.com/game/cruisn-usa/arcade
https://www.twingalaxies.com/game/cruisn-usa-rev-l41/mame
-The first thing you learn while playing this game is that you never need to brake or release the gas pedal. All curves can be taken at full speed, but you lose speed when sliding.
-I did not see any advantage in choosing the manual transmission
-I did 3 TAS of this game improving my times in each one. I decided to post all three, not just the last one, because I think theres something fun to look at in all of them.
Video 1 (This video)
-I chose the Devastator because it is the fastest car. (147 mph)
-In this first video I learn the limits of the game.
-There are 2 main wastes of time:
-Loss of speed when sliding in curves
-Loss of speed by hitting other racing cars, its fun to do but costs too much time.
-Conclusion:
-I have to stop hitting the other cars, the important thing is not to finish first but to have a minimum loss of speed.
-I finished first only on 6/14 stages.
-There are 8 times on the Twin Galaxies site that I havent beaten, so its possible to do better
Video 2 https://youtu.be/5S5AsIpgMD0
-This second video was made with the Italia car.
-As the Italia has a better Skidpad stat (1.01 G vs. 0.85 G), it will likely lose less speed in curves than the Devastator.
-Im going to try not to hit as many race cars as in the first video.
-Conclusion:
-I have upgraded 11/14 times which is good. It helps to have more grip in the corners, but when the road is straight the Devastator is quicker.
-But I havent beaten 5 times from the Twin Galaxies site
-I only finished first on 6/14 stages, like in my first TAS.
Video 3 https://youtu.be/GPKL8udmt7o
-I watched the videos on the Twin Galaxies website and noticed that some players werent playing with an analog controller and were doing a few stages faster than I managed to do, which gives me an idea.. .
-Strategy:
-Use the Devastator because its the fastest
-Dont hit anything that can slow me down. (cars, roadsides)
-Dont try to finish first at all costs
-If a turn is not negotiable at more than 140 mph, turn the steering wheel as much as possible so that the cars slide is as short as possible
-Conclusion:
-Ive beaten all but one of Twin Galaxys times, and a few Ive beaten by over 10 seconds.
-The only time I didnt improve was stage 6 LA Freeway, I did 1:48.80 compared to 01:48.32. , thats because this stage only has one curve that slows you down. A TAS therefore does not have many advantages. I should rework this part to get a better time.
-I finished first for 10/14 stages.
-I abused a bit of the loose collision at the end of Chicago (21:33), but no cheats were used.
-I read somewhere that the game is programmed to be harder for a stage after a stage where you finish first, thats why its difficult to finish first twice in a row, even for a TAS.
-Everything I did in these TAS is achievable by a human with a little luck (or not just a little?). I didnt use any special tricks or cheats, just precision driving.

Tool-assisted superplay (TAS) of Spectar Arcade 253,320 points in 28 rounds
-Spectar is a sequel to Targ.
-There are 2 ways to end a round:
-Eat all the dots like Pac-Man (36 dots at 20 points each)
-Shoot all enemies (10) like Targ
-Note that dots may disappear for reasons other than eating them:
-3:10, 6:34, 7:10, 7:46 An enemys bullet hit a wall, the dot there disappears
-If you kill an enemy on a dot, the dot disappears (1:32)
-If an enemy bullet hits another enemy on a dot, it disappears
-If you shoot an enemy missile over a dot, the dot disappears (3:19)
-The game reaches its hardest point at round 11, from there enemies are always as fast as the player
-At this speed its almost unplayable for a human
-The quickest way to get points (if you are a TAS) is to finish the rounds as quickly as possible to obtain the round bonus: 1000,2000,3000... (max 9000 points)
If you eat all the dots you get (6X6=36 X 20) 720 points
If you shoot all the enemies (90 points each from round 9 and onwards, lower before that) you get (10X90) 900 points
-But if youre a real player, you might want to stay as long as possible in the first round and shoot the green and yellow enemies that appear regularly.
As shown here: https://www.twingalaxies.com/showthread.php/262580
In this video you can see that he kills 212 green/yellow enemies (for a 1st round of 48360 points) while keeping as many red enemies as possible so that they dont accelerate.
From my testing, if you keep 4 or more red enemies, they will never speed up.
His game ends on turn 11 which is almost unplayable by a human.
This also shows that you can wait for green/yellow enemies for as long as you want.
-Round 15 (2:49) I shot all the red enemies except one and waited for green/yellow enemies but only 6 appeared, I dont know why. Or maybe I should have just waited longer?
-Round 16 (4:21) I didnt shoot any enemies
-Round 26 (6:24) I waited again at the end but with 3 red enemies, after 24 green/yellow enemies I decided to stop.
-Round 17 at 4:41 shows the limits of hit boxes, this is the closest the player can get to an enemy without dying. (View it frame by frame with the “Greater than” key)
-The players hit box does not appear to be centered on the players sprite. I sometimes had trouble not colliding with an enemy because the collision would happen before they visually hit each other.
-In Mame, you need the Targ samples to have the shooting and explosion sounds.
-Shooting and explosion sounds often play more times than they should. Emulation problem?

Tool-assisted superplay (TAS) of Major Havoc Arcade levels 1-21 (1,030,478 points)
-The goal of this TAS is to see all the levels achieved by a TAS.
-This is not a speedrun
-In the maze section, you can kill any enemy (except the cannon) using the shield (1000 points), but only once per life or per level.
-The shield can also absorb 4 bullets fired by Robots (Perkoids) (No points).
-To get a higher score, I try to kill one enemy (sometimes two 3:48 and 11:46) in each maze.
-In the maze, normally an O2 (Magenta) gives you 100 points, but if you collect them after hitting the reactor (Yellow), they give you 1000 points (and increase by 200 points for every subsequent one collected).
-The strategy is to keep as much O2 as can be collected before the reactor explodes.
-On level 11 the ONE WAY on the left side of the reactor appear to encompass the reactor (15:37). Once you touch the reactor, you cant go back in the direction you came from. I had to change my pattern because I couldnt leave some O2 (to collect after touching the reactor) where I had planned.
@jerky512dslextreme commented that it is possible to go back by jumping, he was right, I tested it and if you jump high enough (higher than I tried doing the TAS) you can get back the way you came, even if youre in the middle of the ONE WAY sign. Thanks for the tip, if I do another TAS I will do this part differently.
-Level 5, I played with the Fishoids to see what they will do if you dont shoot them (6:00) But you cant do that for long because soon one of them will go straight to you in an inevitable way as shown in level 21 at 34:33.
-Level 17, I beat the fishoids by not moving and just holding the fire button (25:19).
-The bonus in the Fishoids section decreases by 100 for every second.
-Level 7, at the end of the maze (9:19) I wasnt sure if it was possible to jump over the fireball (Pyroid) but there was room to do so. But it was very precise, about a 4 frame window to jump perfectly.
-Level 10, in the fighters section (Flyboids), I kept one at the end to see its pattern (12:45).
-The bonus decreases by 400 for each fighter (Flyboid) you let pass under you.
-When the Bonus reaches 0, the section ends even if you have not killed everyone.
-In the Space Fort section where there are red line planes that are indestructible, normally the wave ends when you shoot all the fighters (9:40).
-The bonus decreases by 400 for each fighter (Flyboid) (not red line planes) you let pass under you.
-The section ends if the bonus reaches 0.
-Note that the hitbox of many enemies is smaller than expected. I assure you that no invincibility cheats were used, which would be useless for a TAS.
At 27:24 we see that the hitbox of a Perkoid does not reach the top of the sprite. But dont try this at home, I was 1 pixel away from dying.
-After level 20, Levels 16 to 20 repeat but with random colors.
-It took me about 20 hours of work to make this TAS. I hope you find this as fun to watch as I enjoyed making it. Thanks.
