[TAS] IWBTG Impossible Glitchless any%

This was a 12H TAS challenge from a friend.
Game beaten at 27:32
Re-records: 1553
Time used to do the TAS: 11:37:26
I didn't have much time to do it, so it doesn't uses the best strats...
I might maybe redo it (nothing sure tho).
TAS'd and encoded w/ Hourglass.

[@borchasrpg]

I just witnessed a game that makes the TAS look like a player

[@thatoneguy9582]

yeah this is one of *those* kinds of games

[@SenatorMailman]

Maybe watch more glitchless TAS? Keyword being glitchless. If this wasn't glitchless, I guarantee you wouldn't think that.

[@blueknight2983]

@@SenatorMailman ok smartass

[@SenatorMailman]

@@blueknight2983 hey man, no worries

[@jacquelineliu2641]

SenatorMailman I think the point is frame-perfect movements. In most games, normal players don't play with frame-perfect movements, while TASes most likely do. This game on the other hand, requires (almost) frame-perfect movements just to progress...

[@k_fuzai]

Just remember people had to play test this With bugs and glitches

[@NtQueryInformationProcess]

and this run has no glitches

[@connor48880]

My question is, what makes this any more impossible than regular mode

[@DanielFerreira-ez8qd]

@Maldor oh god

[@Milktube]

I actually was a beta tester for this game. There weren't too many bugs/glitches except for the bosses sometimes. Kraidgief and Doctor Willy sometimes wouldn't advance to their next stage when called. Mainly people complained about the difficulty of The Guy but that wasn't due to any bugs really.

[@Freak80MC]

Oh damn some modern comments. I guess this is my chance to get this out here... Has anyone tried playing this game with a Steam controller and getting it to work? I can't figure out how to oof

[@pera_king3720]

nope, the title even says it's a TAS (Tool Assisted Speedrun) :V

[@anastasiadunbar5246]

EXP Sheepy He didn't make a program that'd play automatically a perfect run of the game for himself but rather using save states, slowing down and/or recording and editing one's inputs all by hand. But it'd be amazing to know if a such program exists that can produce perfect runs for a wide variety of games. Currently, computer scientists are teaching neural networks how to play games.

[@ZekePolarisBSH]

@EXP Sheepy it's not a computer it's a software.

[@Fazeof1p]

I always hated these fucking "I wanna be the guy" trial/error based games that are prone to crashing every 5-6th screen, so its always very satisfying to see a speedrun of one of these fucking games done well :)

[@JNJNRobin1337]

i think these are moreso called "pain games" or something people think/thought kaizo games were that when kaizo just means remix excruciating challenges that are designed to be as painful as possible "endurance tests" feels like a good name for them

[@moomooold]

Only the og iwbtg crashed that often. Every fangame after was more stable than the og.

[@Fazeof1p]

@@moomooold Oh I agree entirely. I tried playing IWBTG again a few years ago on Windows 7, and it was just as crash-happy as it ever was. Hell, one the later parts of the game literally has a WinXP era error message trap show up in order to trick you, so the dev clearly knew the game was crash prone. XD

this game isn't actually very difficult once you know all the tricks, it's just horribly unbalanced and buggy in a lot of places. i still loved the shit out of it when i was in 3rd grade

[@Lefty7788tinkatolli]

The game literally prides itself on cheap difficulty and shoddy game design. That's its entire shtick. That being said, there are some REALLY clever moments here - that Tetris part, although total trial and error, IS super clever. Credit where credit is due.

[@moomooold]

@@Lefty7788tinkatolli it doesn’t really do that trial and error stuff in my opinion. The only iwbtg type game that does that to a t is I Wanna Kill The Happil 2 and other similar games. But even then, those games are usually reviled and hated by most the community.
