Sonic Colors (Wii): Tropical Resort Act 4 completed in 14:60 as Super Sonic (TAS)
NTSC U Version
Player: itsPersonnal
Played on: Dolphin 3.5-367
Re-records: 962
Non-TAS World Record: itsPersonnal (me) 14:93
(maybe I should record it next time)
If you liked this then go watch some of my Sonic Adventure 2: Battle TASes! http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3C511E676CBB4C92
So yeah, loop skip saves 8 frames (0.26) meaning that my time would be14:86 without it ... that's 2 frames faster than my non-TAS record. then again, you need to keep in mind that I have less boost at the end.
Watch in HD and what-not.

This is a tool-assisted speedrun of Sonic Adventure 2s Metal Harbor (Mission 1), with a completion time of 0:58.85.

Inputs: FusionVaria
This TAS does not use a speedglitch that exploits repeatedly bouncing to build speed. Personally I think this game is a lot more fun without using this tech, and it much more closely resembles non-TAS play.
The current record using TAS Bounce is a 0:56.07 by me (2012, very obsolete):

I decided to copy over my inputs from my recent Mission 3 TAS and update the Mission 1 record. I originally did not expect sub 1 minute to be possible without TAS Bounce, Im still kind of astonished that it is...
I discovered a new trick in the making of this TAS, a method of VHC that uses Bounce+Homing Attack on the lip of certain collision to convert the downward Bounce velocity into horizontal speed. It saves a substantial amount of time at 0:32 as a means of quickly building speed along this awkward collision, and again shortly after at 0:35

I made this demonstration a long time ago, and planned on releasing it in a lengthy video essay on the history and details of this skip... but video essays are hard to make, and Im never happy with how my commentary ends up.
This saves 1 minute and 40 seconds over the current Any% TAS.

This is more or less just a render test to see how TASes of this game look in 4k. The screen flickered in a couple places and Im not entirely sure why. Could have been an issue in the framedump or the render. Ill look into this more next time I upload in 4k.")
