did this ages ago (late 2019) but only showed it off as an mp4 embed in tas server.
improved a frame from that old version by 2P jumping into the star.
Attempted earlier shots, particularly using 2P IR instead of 1P as it comes from the left of the screen, but nothing worked out. Im confident it will work but couldnt be bothered to keep testing. Xanders gonna smash this TAS up when he gets there.
Interestingly I couldnt save a frame on textbox by turning the camera just before talking. Perhaps you could save something with a different talking position, but you need to make sure its close enough to the star for an instant 2P jump at the end.")

the one on main channel was mainly a hey i did this cool thing so now this one is the cool thing done a bit better. but this is still very much suboptimal and acts as a blueprint for future TASes.
things to improve:
-Single jump on the second stone platform on first planet to land on sand earlier and not have to pull back on a long jump later on.
-Experiment with momentum off the moving blocks, as well as more edge long jumps on the sand currents
-Learn the exact point at which the Romps start rolling instead of just when the camera tilts up
-Instantly jumping after the first ground pound on the slide which I didnt do for some reason lol")

One from the backlog of TASes to upload.
IGT could be improved by delaying cutscene skips to optimise the fireball cycles.
This TAS was made for the comparison of fast CS skip vs. full cutscenes between both GS1 and GS2 to figure out which is faster to do first in a Green Stars run. Due to fireball cycles being slightly better (4 frames) without cutscenes, its faster to do GS2 first.
Mega double/triple jumps werent understood at the time; maybe there could be an improvement right at the start with this tech?")

this includes cutscenes which wouldnt be included in a 120 TAS assuming routing changes arent made (RTA does Secret before 3 to have two shots at the note challenge).
Without cutscenes, this would be a 1:15.xx.
This branched off the Dusty Dune 3 TAS until landing on the rim of the Bullet Bill planet.
The checkpoint to respawn on the Bullet Bill planet is a short distance away from the rim, so I delayed my long jump and then spun to reach it.
This skip saves ~9.5 seconds over doing the double bounce 2P star chip skip and doing the secret the normal way.")
