[TAS] Genesis Taz in Escape from Mars by emu in

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/921M
TAS originally published on 2007-07-20
Taz, that crazy tasmanian devil, has been imprisoned on Mars and needs to spin his way to freedom.
Taz's main form of movement is his signature tornado, which is quite fast (and easily abused in a TAS for extra speed). If you like the other Taz run (tasvideos.org/1869M) for Genesis, you'll probably enjoy this one too.

Y'know, with Taz, this crazy-like playthrough could actually be in total character.

[@ziggybowman6875]

A Tas, if you will.

[@Baximus]

I'm glad to see this game get torn to pieces. Take that, childhood!

[@cbanks6357]

Its clearly impossible

[@aalex2606]

Ahahaha

[@marhawkman303]

Yeah this speed run gets farther in 1:30 than I ever did playing the game as a kid.

[@buddyrogers2919]

12:02. I've beaten this level like this before as a kid. This was before I understood glitches and exploits though.

[@ezgames6925]

TAS? more like TAZ!

[@michaelpatten315]

My goodness what a speed run! I spent more time getting past the very first section than they took to finish the entire game!

[@angry_zergling]

This game was the bane of my childhood. I remember renting it like half a dozen or more times when I was around seven. Was very difficult for me! Never got too far.

*That Genesis X-Men 1 synth vibe is here* .

Those sega sounds.

[@coretaku]

Holy Moly!! This speedrun is unfreakinreal. Looney Toons 4lyf.

[@ImSquiggs]

I take it that back-and-forth to get up slim vertical corridors isn't intended? This was a pretty cool one all around. It's funny to me that Taz eating exit signs is about 1/5th of the run because everything else is so fast, hahah.

[@segtendonerd64]

I'm pretty sure the back and forth climbing technique was intended as I remember doing it as a kid.

[@imveryangryitsnotbutter]

No, in the game you are supposed to climb vertical shafts by jumping and spinning. In fact, it's not possible to progress without mastering this ability.

[@marhawkman303]

@@imveryangryitsnotbutter yeah so many things you can't get to otherwise.

Can anyone explain what happens at 14:55?

He hits a checkpoint then clones himself shortly after

[@Choco_Dog_]

I feel like hearing the sound "ULE"....

Never got past mole land as a child. Freaking auto scroller if death.

Better to be a TAZ than a SPAZ… 😂😂

I NEVER beat the first level, but I kinda think I was doing it wrong. I remember fighting an army of Martian tanks, but that's probably doing it the hard way.

[@ricardocantoral7672]

The game was cheap.

Well, I had to stop this video. This *really isn't* a testament to the Yamaha FM synthesis chip.

[@imveryangryitsnotbutter]

Man, if you think the sound design in this game is bad, you should watch the prequel, Taz-Mania. (Just make sure to keep the volume down.)

[@GamerGee]

Good ole noisy annoying sega synths lol

[@doublec3]

I can’t stand speed runs. It’s such a silly thing to try and prove to gamers.
