[TAS] Project M: The Subspace Emissary Speedrun in 30:40.75 (Intense Difficulty, NG+ Debug%)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 січ 2020
- The music that plays during the Glossary & Definitions is "Coin Launcher", from Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
This is the final result of a project that has cumulatively taken over five months of work. This is New Game Plus Debug%.
No cutscenes to skip, no characters to unlock, no extras involved. The only requirement is to beat all of the levels with any methods possible (Except hard-cheating to the end).
To ease the amount I have to type into this description, I made a glossary with some definitions of the most frequent techniques involved alongside popups whenever a given technique appears. Specific examples that weren't covered in the video include Meta Knight's numerous applications of Turbo Mode (In which he conserves vertical momentum by cancelling his Up-B with another move) and the several instances of entering doors to quit fights against characters (A NG+ strat to prematurely complete levels). Feel free to ask any other questions in the comments; I'll reply to them as best as I can (As long as they weren't already answered in the video).

With everything said and done, I'm probably never going to TAS this again.
Any other "New Game" variants, with or without Debug Mode, currently feel like a waste of effort because of the gigantic amount of needless time added onto them (Loading times for cutscenes that will be skipped Frame 1, unnecessary character re-choosing).
As shown in the video, I've broken down NG+ so incredibly hard that there's nothing left except for miscellaneous optimizations that I happened to miss. Skippable fights and autoscrollers were skipped, stage collision was broken in ways thought of as impossible one year ago, and the mandatory fights were optimized on a greater than or equal to level of the NG Debug% TAS I made in 2018.
This TAS has 54,681 rerecords. Assuming that the rerecords were spread out equally across the 110,445 frames of the timed run (Which is heavily inaccurate for multiple reasons), there was an average of one rerecord (The equivalent of loading a savestate, to do an action differently or to fix a mistake) every 2.02 frames.
This game will probably never *ever* be truly "maxed" in a similar fashion to games like Super Mario Bros. or Super Mario 64 because of the game's limitless combinations of possible events, both to do with item RNG and to do with enemy AI manipulation. In the majority of other games' TASes, the enemies are either skipped or damage boosted through once and then forgotten about. In Subspace Emissary, even in the most ideal scenarios presented in this video, there are numerous areas where the entire *goal* is to destroy a gigantic amount of enemies as fast as possible. And given how quickly the number of outcomes grow just by killing an enemy to get two different (And important) items a single frame apart, the entire grand scheme of outcomes is practically unlimited. There's a reason why the RTA record for Intense Difficulty (2:21:28) is over *47 minutes* slower than the _ridiculously low optimization_ TAS (1:34:03) I made nearly four years ago.
You're seriously amazing man, this is probably like the 20th subspace TAS you made and it's amazing how far you've gotten. You're a god of subspace TAS.
You did well. Rest easy, king.
2 frames are 2 frames, you can't say it's only 0.02
This is cool! The amount of practice must be phenomal
Props to you man

Yea guess people forgot why he’s called sonic when asking that question
He was running late
The unintended narrative of watching Meta Knight climb a mountain only to see him being bodied by Captain Falcon at its summit will never stop being funny for me.
I’m more entertained by the fact that he gets meteored to the bottom of the blast zone, as though he just fell down the mountain. considering how quickly he climbed the mountain, it just looks like something small and inconvenient that bothers you, like falling down a flight of stairs, and that’s why I love it so much.
It’s like a bizarro version of Celeste.
Sorry Meta Knight, but your Sense of Fulfillment is on another mountain!
"enjoy the climb back up, bitch!"
And you get a like, and you get a like,

At this point I like to imagine that Tabuu is an anti-cheat program trying vainly to stop you from breaking the game so hard.

The initial strategies I attempted in the rough draft included using Pikachu's Quick Attack to clip the corner at a precise angle (Which I couldn't get), and using Giga Bowser's Down-B to hit the switch with its ridiculous hitbox (It worked, but Giga Bowser can't enter doors, making it useless).
Eon suggested Toon Link, and I was able to get it to work.
Yeah, welcome to the club.
Can I get a timestamp for that? I never even saw toon link (i'm imagining he's not used for anything else)

The unfortunate matter is that the communities for speedrunning Brawl and Project M are *ridiculously* smaller than the communities that speedrun Super Mario 64, The Wind Waker, and a bunch of other games.
It doesn't help that Brawl is the least competitively popular Smash game and that Project M is taboo (I know the pun, I'm not going for it) thanks to Nintendo.
someding about super smash bros brawl.
DyllonStej Gaming it’s weird because this is one of the most praised games too. I’ve seen so many people praise this game, saying it’s one of the best in the series, yet I hear the gameplay is slow and too floaty.

Sonic just told the moving platform: "You're too SLOW."
This run is absolutely nuts. Great job! I'd love to see this at GDQ or some other marathon sometime with someone trying to explain every single thing that's happening in real time.
And if art weren't so expensive I'd totally commission art of this run's main protagonists
Isn't Project M kinda taboo for streaming? I know you can't stream tournaments of it because Nintendo sponsorships, but I don't know how that'd work with GDQ?

yea, throughout the entire Subspace I was like, WHERE IS MY SONIC! Then once I got him to mess with in New Game + I was like, Oh, well this makes sense, Sonic is clearly unlocked at the end to then allow Speedruns of the game.

"Sonic was never good." - some douche over at IGN
Sonic after he realized he was late to confront Tabuu.
I like to imagine TASes are how games canonically happen, so it's just Sonic carrying everyone around the map while Captain Falcon mauls all of the enemies and Peach slaps bosses around with her legendary turnip.
Tabuu got beaten so hard he just sat there floating away and then the choir just started singing in fear of what they witnessed
I’ve heard legends of that person... and they scare me.
This makes me sad Ultimate did not do platforming stages with World of Light. As fun as the bosses were, I enjoyed playing huge levels with the huge roster of fighters. The Subspace Emissary will never be surpassed by any other single player content in any other Smash game.
If World of Light had DLC that added as many platforming levels as TSE had, I would pay so much for that. I don't care about the cutscenes. In TSE, they were a bonus. Charming, but the levels are what made it fun. In WoL, they just tried to make Event Match more grand. And even then, Melee has more creative matches, some even having new stages and items.
I can play Ultimate whenever I have friends over, which is rare ever since all of them moved on with life, but TSE is something I can play with a friend or alone. It is just so much fun to mess around in. I hope someday, somebody mods Project M to include all of the characters from Sm4sh and Ultimate. I don't expect something like that to exist for several more years, but when it does, I will play as every one of those characters in The Subspace Emissary.
I agree
while i do think Subspace Emissary is cool, if they choose to not do something like it again i think an upgraded Smash Run would be more viable (because Sakurai wouldn't have the permission to use some characters in cutscenes making it hard to integrate them into the story, while Smash run doesn't really have that problem and is still just as fun to play), heck they could do so much more to Smash Run but instead they brought back Homerun Contest (which i also do like but honestly Smash Run just is way more interesting. But no, they had to do Homerun because everyone wanted it despite people barely even playing the mode now and ruining the chance for a more fun gamemode to be added that is similar to TSE despite not being a huge campaign [let's face it the only reason for Homerun Contest to be so popular is Sandbag])
World of Light got very stale very quickly imo

Man, thanks for doing these things man, ssbb was my childhood, and seeing a nutty TAS like this make me feel happy
Also, i love the captions in the bottom left, it helps me keep up, and know whats happening
What’s funny is anytime I played this game I never used the stickers because I didn’t know how you could use them lol.
Same 😅
When I played, I thought the stickers were only usable in the weird sticker tab thing in the vault, never thought they could cause so much destruction 😅
Fimbulvetr 0 lol
I beat the whole story mode...and no one told me I could of just used stickers?!?
Damn, ever since I beat the game as a kid, I was never aware of this as well. Crazy to think about really
it's funny how besides peach, sonic is the most usefull character in subspace yet how is only available in the final battle
also it's a shame that out of nearly 40 characters only toon link(21:06), metaknight(22:30), falco(19:30), falcon, sonic, fox & peach actually were useful.
I kinda wish Ganondorf was used in this run personally, I know he is alow as hell, but for multifight baddies i would have liked to see him just clear the scores of baddies with his power.
