[TAS] NES Silver Surfer by Skaad & HardCoreMangeur in

[@teckworks]

Alternate Title: _Let's listen to some badass chiptune and occasionally shoot things._

[@IpfxTwin]

It's the least the developers could do was make awesome music. If you're a human playing this, you're very likely going to hear it over and over again.

[@charlessegale6493]

Even after all these years, I'm still astounded at how good the music is in this game. If I dodn't know any better and I was told this was some bouncy techno hit from the 80's, I'd totally believe it. The quality of these tracks are exquisite. Gotta give major props to Tim Follin!

[@CrasherX2000]

It’s exactly the type of chiptune awesomeness that an indie game would replicate God this soundtrack held up so fucking well you would’ve thought an indie dev made this

[@handlesareanunfortunatefeature]

TAS sure does make dodging rain look easy.

Same thing with walking barefoot without your toes or heels touching the floor and picking fly shit out of pepper while wearing boxing gloves.

[@KyuJuEX099xx]

And fares better than being Bruce Lee, tripping on his own shoelaces.

[@cloudshines812]

Or doing a maze without touching the walls or running into any dead ends while someone is moving the sheet of paper

[@mauldin128]

Definitely tas run

[@eatingmage603]

Surprised it doesn’t have “pacifist” in the title of the video, since the Silver Surfer seems to only kill when absolutely necessary.

[@Mordecrox]

I just learned some shmups enforce that, as in dynamic difficulty increases with the shots fired and enemies killed, resulting in 1CC/TAS gameplay getting more benevolent patterns than the average player

[@morshumantheshopkeeperrobo6270]

Tim Follin is still a legend for us

[@ult_mpx]

This game is so hard, it would actually be easier to go outside in a thunderstorm and try to dodge rain. It would be easier to walk barefoot without your toes or heels touching the floor. It would be easier to pick fly shit outta pepper... while wearing boxing gloves! The fact that you can get hit only once pretty much means that you're weaker than every other enemy in the game. HOW DO YOU DIE... FROM JUST TOUCHING A WALL!? I can understand if he's flying at, like 200MPH and he crashes into the wall, but the fact that he just 'touches' the wall and dies is just ridiculous!

[@pacificsoundrise9650]

angry video game nerd classic

[@malcovich_games]

The best NES music in one of the worst NES games.

[@MantaRaydiated]

good ol Tim Follin

[@nanomachines2954]

The game isn't even that bad but heck..the difficulty is just brutal.

[@NataliaNeeSama]

@@nanomachines2954 if this game had an energy bar that allowed for 3 or 5 hits, I think it would be awesome.

[@chocobro7]

Regarding Silver Surfer on the NES, a wise man once said, "This game is a shitload of fuck"

[@박강현-k9k]

Wow.. These beats are really sick and awesome

[@fatkart7641]

Even though Pacifist runs are always impressive to watch, I still find 100% kills runs more satisfying. There's something about letting enemies go that I can't quite describe, but it leaves me with an "unfinished business" aftertaste if that makes any sense!

[@Pangloss6413]

It’s so cool that these Tim Follin albums come with a free game

[@Avrelivs_Gold]

Music is a timeless chiptune masterpiece

[@mauldin128]

Beautiful

[@gsus3918]

This was how I played it my first time through.

[@seisukakawaru]

I beat this game some years back. After playing Bullet Hell games, it actually isnt too bad.

[@doktawhawee9870]

If you play enough touhou, anything is possible.

[@jiminboo]

I think I’m follin in love with this music 😍

[@GardevoirBoy]

There's a certain satisfaction in seeing poorly developed games receive Tool Assisted Speedruns. It feels like justice to witness these games being played to their full potential.

[@KyuJuEX099xx]

Wonder if someone could do a "maximum kills, highest score" variant of Silver Surfer TAS?

[@TechnoCookieNG]

Is Tim Follin still around? Dude’s a legend in music composition

[@thomasmurrell9832]

Sadly his brother (who helped him make these OSTs) isn't, but Tim is actually the guy behind some recent FMV games like that hotel horror murder mystery game! Dude's got a fancy for extremely creative ideas!

[@Raptiel]

Totally styled on them !!! GG

[@JewelOfSoul]

27:32 looks like he's brushing teeth.

[@morshumantheshopkeeperrobo6270]

So this is the game about avoiding obstacles and enemies

[@comicsdude3166]

Sight to be behold.

[@HouYi-b6g]

Silver Surfer: Watch me graze danmaku with my huge hitbox!

[@Chud_Bud_Supreme]

BOO! Haunted House!

ｼﾙﾊﾞｱｱｱｱ!!!!(ゴ並感) パロディウスの紙飛行機野郎の元ネタだという説

[@benjamincabana4388]

Koitsu!

[@ADR69]

It they spent half as much effort on the game as they did the bangin soundtrack this could've been fun.

[@P3RDT0]

This game needs a remaster with more Marvel space antagonists and the final battle against Galactus.

[@MrJechgo]

They would need to add NUMEROUS upgrades, such a health bar (5 hits to start), no more death on collisions, different weapons, screen-clearing bombs, less random enemy patterns, checkpoints, actual challenging bosses with health bars and a true ending. Yeah, Silver Surfer is a slave to Galactus, so him destroying the machine sorta makes sense. However, if in each level, there is something for the Surfer to collect so he could rebel against Galactus, that would help.

[@thomasmurrell9832]

I'd say as a Remaster, it NEEDS to stay 8-bit, so basically give it a more modern retro style. Cause only then can we have Tim's god-tier talent for music.

[@iamfromancientgreece3782]

OST slaps hard.

[@FreeAimDog]

that movement lol what was the point of adding all those inputs? it’s just extra work for nothing but i will admit even if it is tas it’s still impressive.

[@mazionach]

TAS videos are not only perfect playthroughs, they must also be entertaining. If it moved only when necesary nobody would want to watch it.

[@jagergerg9771]

This music is kick ass

[@reesefunkhouser1359]

“HE LOOKS SO STUPID.”

[@stevenmcelroy2646]

Well, *almost* no enemies except for bosses.

[@AlmightyRager95]

And lessers that completely obstruct the path. Bosses are mandatory kills.

[@dmitryyershoff7938]

9:43 "F" pickup = Follin, I guess?)

OH NO!!! SILVER SURFER DIED FROM BREATHING

[@RusticTrophies]

Silver Scissor

[@michaelgoff4504]

This game is all right. The music is kick-ass. But it's too easy. I beat it the first time I played it with the Power Glove.

[@soldadito34]

Speedrun says... Silver Surfer pacifist mode is more accurate...

[@RetroGamesMas]

Man, epic music asf.....bad and hard asf game.

[@lastprince426]

실버~ 서버~

Silver Seizure.

[@TerranEarth]

Dance surfer man dance!🤣

[@高確T]

この音の厚み本当に意味がわからない

[@Leonardo-iz4qu]

silves surfer ezquisofrenico xd 😅

[@nanomachines2954]

Should have been called Silver Surfer pacifist run

[@patrickcoronado-taylor1802]

I hear that this was an easy game. (Not!)

[@metarotta]

graphically the game looks great for nes era, the soundtrack is fantastic but man they really made the gameplay unfun lack of autofire, terrain being a instakill along with anything else, and these combined with catastrophically brutal level design choices (for example firelord stage 2, possessor stage 2, mephisto stage 1) i played this game through on emulator years ago using a fuckton of savestates and the only factor that made it easier was staying alive with all the shot upgrades but even then if you died some of the checkpoints you respawned from were impossible to survive without said upgrades

[@jorgeamaya6049]
