Natetheman223 GamerThese are just some matches with me (P1, left) versus my cousin (P2, right). Fun game, would love to play it online with Dolphin's netplay at some point.
They really should have made it so it takes more than 5 counters to get Giga Mac, because man, it's seriously annoying to never be able to get out of Giga Mac state. This can be mitigated by locking either player 1 or player 2's giga mac level to 0 with cheat engine so that player can never get it, but that's illegitimate. And likewise, a player can be permanently locked into giga mac by setting that value to always be 100. Unfortunately it's a dynamic value so there's no way to easily make an AR code for it.
Also thinking of making a tutorial on how to actually play 2 player mode as well as I do.

0:00 Stage 1 0:43 Stage 2 1:15 Stage 3 1:51 Stage 4 3:11 Stage 5 4:30 Stage 6 5:49 Stage 7[TAS] Arcade Rampart, Very Hard, 1 Coin/DeathlessNatetheman223 Gamer2024-03-28 | Y'know, I've never actually seen this game completed deathless - let alone on the hardest difficulty. The closest is 5 deaths on normal, by John Harris: youtube.com/watch?v=mFc-WwhHg9c
In fact, the game is specifically set up for you to lose and try again, because it gives you stronger cannons when you revive. For a faster TAS, you could even lose twice right off the bat for max strength cannons... at least, I think it would be faster.
But, this TAS is mainly a demonstration - it's possible that no one has ever completed this deathless before, and for good reason. It's extremely hard. I just wanted to see it defeated, once and for all.
I actually got quite deep into a TAS of the GBC version of this game, which is identical in gameplay, but it has more difficulty options - including the elusive "Hardest"(!!!!) difficulty, which isn't even an option in this mode. The audio and video of the GBC version is downright awful though, so I abandoned it to start this TAS instead.
The main strategy for this TAS is to achieve "critical mass" as quickly as possible - that is, planting enough cannons that you no longer have to care about the strength of the enemies, or which need to be taken out first. The problem is, the deeper you get into the game, the less castles are in each stage, and therefore, you get less cannons per cycle.
There are actually instances where surrounding a castle is not the best move. The fireball ships can create a direct line of shots that make it literally impossible to surround a castle. This is most notable in the final stage, where there are only 2 castles, and both are close to the edges. There was a build phase where I intentionally didn't surround a castle even though I could have - because if I did, a fireball ship would have destroyed the ground, rendering BOTH castles unable to be saved, therefore making me lose, no matter what.
I missed two shots in stage 5 somehow. Thankfully they didn't matter, but this also means I didn't get 100% accuracy. Whoops.
The SNES version of this game has a very similar "Classic" campaign which is based off this, with some difficulty adjustments. The biggest thing is that you automatically win if all ships on screen are defeated, regardless of the round. The fireball ships are a single hit weaker, too, which is a welcome change.
Also, this game just has no RNG manipulation. On the SNES version, you can intentionally wait any number of frames before placing a piece, and it will change your next piece. In this version, however, you're at the mercy of a predetermined list of pieces.
In retrospect, I wish I'd've chosen blue or orange instead - maybe I'd be saying the opposite if I chose them. The grass is always greener, or something.

I briefly paused the timer on accident when splitting after chapter 3, but I was also late on splitting for the ending so it all evens outSifu on the Switch... (Full Playthrough)Natetheman223 Gamer2024-01-27 | I'll admit it - I played this on Yuzu, a switch emulator... BUT, I consider it accurate enough that this experience isn't far off from what the game actually plays like (in fact, it might even be better on emulator).
But oh my god, this is awful. The game can hardly handle 30 fps, and the input lag makes the game a chore if you're playing in a serious manner. Certain mixups become unreactable because of this, and even the parry counter on Yang just doesn't work.
Then there's the graphics... yikes. Just, yikes. Normally I'm not one to complain about graphics if the game plays well, but since the switch port does neither, I'll complain. There's a single layer of shadows in the game - so in very specific outdoor sections, objects will cast a shadow. Aside from that, you'll never see shadows. The textures are also majorly turned down, with many VFX flat out missing entirely.
Now these are fine if you're a 6 year old playing on easy difficulty with no concept of fidelity, but seeing as how this is an M-rated game, that's unlikely.
This run was also in docked mode - in handheld, the performance might be slightly better, but the HUD is absolutely massive thanks to the lower resolution.
I haven't even attempted the arenas in this version, nor do I intend to.
Why do companies even bother making switch ports...?

So, after the YNsection website died, no one made any attempt to preserve the snowy textures mod??? I couldn't find it anywhere, but thankfully I had it saved on my old hard drive. Obviously it's out of season for snow at the time of posting, but it just feels like tradition to have a snowy version of pizza%. Unlike last time, I actually took precautions and whatnot so we can have both a snowy, and a non-snowy version of the TAS.
Sadly, I only figured out I could manipulate the cutscenes for the parlor when I was around 8 missions in - otherwise the menu image replacements would have been more sparse rather than all stuffed in the second half of the TAS. Oh well, thankfully it's not a big deal.

So, for a long while, Spider-Man 2 was one of the only games that wasn't really TASable on dolphin for... some reason. I still don't know exactly what the reason was, but dolphin just kept getting regular updates and I assume the TASing issue was fixed without the devs even realizing just as a result of the emulation accuracy becoming better.
I had actually tried to TAS all the pizza missions many times before, but ran into those TASing bugs I mentioned every time. The only reason the 19:40 pizza% got done was because the sheer lack of rerecords meant the chance of desyncing was decreased since states weren't being loaded as often - which is a really long way of saying that TAS sucked. I think that one had like 2000 rerecords, where this TAS has almost ten times as many - though it didn't desync a single time and the one speed issue relating to this game is no longer prevalent, meaning the only frustrations in TASing dolphin now come from the game itself and not the emulator. Nice job, dolphin devs.
The any% TAS had like 17K rerecords, and this one - despite being a third as long - has almost 20K (19476 to be exact). I can confidently say this TAS took more work than the any% one. I also ate around 40 pizzas during the production of this TAS and actually ate the last pizza in my house right before I completed mission 20.
So I made a goal for myself to beat every single time I've ever gotten on the pizza missions in previous TAS attempts - which was really hard, because there are a lot of times I got 10 or so missions in and then stopped, getting better each time. I've finally made up for my original sin of the 2020 pizza% TAS and redeemed myself.

so at the start, I say that Rose's stats are "just better" than Vuu's, and this is mostly true. it costs less red and green orbs for Rose to cast spells (with red and green spells being the damaging ones), and Rose also just deals a decent bit more damage. however, blue (healing) spells cost less for Vuu to use. so it's kind of a catch; do you want to hit harder and end fights sooner, or hit lighter but be able to heal more frequently?
also, those recipes I got from the girl on the pyramid top are actually relics, not spells - so you can spend 80 energy to clear all blue/red oyons on the board, which is pretty powerful

The Sky Lord challenge involves playing the game in Corsair difficulty (limited health refill), with Ironman mode enabled (permadeath). I'm so impressed with myself for completing this. It took several tries, several crying sessions, and a ton of determination. This is one of the most difficult things I've ever completed in a video game, maybe ever.
I'm literally shaking. I was shaking during the entirety of world 6; twin destroyers and the titanium citadel were so genuinely terrifying. I think this is the first ever recorded instance of someone beating this game in this mode.

EDIT: the bug in Twin Destroyers is only partially true, I was able to get it and finish getting every goal in every level - although the circumstances for getting that goal are seemingly random as I've tried doing it on a second file, with and without cheats for more controlled conditions, and I'm unable to acquire it. However, even with every level goal completed and every upgrade acquired, the save file is still at 96%, which is either a bug or I'm missing something.
