[TAS] DOS Jazz Jackrabbit by Ilari, Noxxa & slamo in

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/...
TAS originally published on 2014-07-19
Jazz Jackrabbit is one of the earliest products released by what was then known as Epic MegaGames, better known these days for producing the Unreal engine. It was viewed initially as being a pastiche of the Sonic the Hedgehog games was and arguably developed along those lines, bearing much of the same fast platformer action.
This run completes all the standard levels of the full game, which consists of six episodes. We also have a run of the three bonus episodes ( tasvideos.org/... ) by the same authors.
You can also watch runs from one of the authors, Ilari ( tasvideos.org/... ), that completed the two ( tasvideos.org/... ) Christmas ( tasvideos.org/... ) episodes of this game.

thanks for the heads up

[@chackbro1]

YOO this is so cool

[@Jokerbuzzed]

One of the things I remember about this game from back in the day was that in the credits there was a note that said "It's hard to draw a female rabbit sexy" oh if he only knew what the future held

[@mirabilis]

Oh, rabbits still ain't sexy.

@@mirabilis dont mean they didnt try to make it so

[@adamwebb8114]

I don't understand how games like this weren't more popular

Before Oblivion with Guns, there was Sonic with Guns.

Boy, hearing that parrot screech as it does just reminds me how bad sound tech was in the 90s; with such a weird spike in competing incompatible, non-competitive sound devices. Including the GUS, Adlib, Sound Blaster, SC-88, and more.

[@no.1machopfan503]

I just thought that was the sound of the seeds it spat out of its beak.

Shadow the hedgehog for MS-DOS

[@zimtak6418]

Heh, basically. But something tells me Shadow would still call Jazz the faker.😅 Sonic would actually have the right to call Jazz the copycat, but would probably be more interested in helping Jazz fight the good fight.

[@artman40]

Interesting. Although there are less movement tricks in this game than in Sonic the Hedgehog games, the run itself flows much better!

[@RADish-official]

This game looks like it would have a terrifying Game Over screen

[@alexn1949]

is jazz jackrabbit green from all the weed he smoked in college?

[@zephyfoxy]

lol I did that exact same trick on Battleships with the parrot XD

[@ToxicDerg]

Nostalgia

[@jeffcarroll1990shock]

I had a rich friend in 95 who had a copy
