SM64 TASes

63 videos • 28,208 views • by Superdavo0001 My Tool-Assisted Superplays (TASes) of the popular game Super Mario 64. These are basically playthroughs where by using special software, I can play through the game frame-by-frame, and - with the help of savestates - redo any section where I go wrong. The result is an (essentially) perfect run, allowing me to perform glitches and feats which require extroadinary precision - far beyond what can be achieved realtime, as well as optimizing more mundane tasks - making them as fast as possible. Currently, most of my TASes are based on the A-button challenge. This is basically where you try to beat the game pressing the 'A' button (used for jumping, cannons, etc) as few times as possible, using many varied glitches. I was inspired by the work of another YouTuber Pannenkoek2012, who (along with his ABC crew) have beaten levels with some incredible feats! Note that I'm not trying to blindly copy his work, instead I'm trying to do things the ABC crew have never attempted, or come up with faster strategies for things they have.
