Marble garden was skipped because the act 2 boss was loaded and beaten which I think makes the game glitch and believe you're in act 2 (thus skipping it)
Sonic spies on Knuckles as he, unscathed, exits a passage in Mushroom Hill. Realizing the futility of his own actions regarding the mission at hand, seeing as Knuckles somehow so far cannot be stopped, Sonic then proceeds to crush himself underneath the gate to that very same passage.
You know, I WAS going to say "That's uhh... ONE way to skip the Sanopolis Act 2 ghosts" but then the ghosts showed up anyways. Maybe it's hard-coded in or something?
That's actually something that real-time runners like Werster take into account. The 50k time bonus takes a few full seconds to tick off, so sometimes it's faster to wait at the end and miss the big points if you end up saving more time on the end of level screen. I think it would be applicable at Ice Cap Zone, since waiting an extra second would knock the time bonus down to 10k and be a positive trade-off.
That's exactly why the runs for sonic games subtract time bonuses. You can actually obsolete a shorter run with a longer run without any emulation differences like this, if you improve a stage from e.g. 31 seconds to 29 seconds, although due to how infrequently these are published, this is unlikely
I remember seeing a video that explained the Marble Garden Zone Act 2 skip in scrupulous detail. It was pretty fun, but seems to have been privated or something.
I like how in the notes it says that Sonic can beat one of the bosses a few frames faster, but he just doesn't move fast enough to pull it off. Looks like the main goal was in-game time, hence the 59 on Ice Cap when in RTA it'd be faster to let the clock roll over to 1 minute.
Captains log: 0:00 ok cool this seems like a neat TAS, let's see where this goes! 0:26 Ok sure let's get a head start I guess... 0:29 wow, angel Island sure has seen better days 0:31 looks like knuckles found a shortcut too 1:23 holy shit that time bonus 2:17 skillz 2:55 rollin around at the speed of sound 3:05 "Yo tails whats under this bridge?" 3:11 Droppin in the DM's like 3:24 yeah act 1 boss is overrated anyway 3:33 tails has mastered the art of levitation. 3:51 sonic said "bye tails lmao" 3:54 sonic fucking dies. 4:16 thats the wrong boss music xD 4:59 Oh god the TAS has speed shoes oh fuck 5:04 excuse me whaaaat 5:20 e x c u s e m e w h a a a a t 5:42 *_EXCUSE ME WHAT_* 5:48 Sonic causes the collapse of reality 6:04 ...and time 6:09 Yeah act two is irrelevant anyway lol 6:22 _H Y P E R S P E E E E E E E D_ 6:31 sonic went so fast he melted into the fucking wall 6:40 lol nevermind he's back 6:55 and now he's melted into the fucking floor 7:40 "Oh hey knuckles" 7:41 Tails no 8:17 Lol zoom 8:20 lol that was fun lets do it again 8:55 sonic runs into a fucking mountain 8:56 one more time for good measure 9:23 yeah fuck act 1 amiright 9:46 and act two?? 10:08 record time!

wouldn't it have been benifical to loose rings during the flying battery robotnik fight? you might have saved 1-2 frames due to rings being less during score screen.

I imagine this how sonic would actually get shit done. the level wraps are the camera guy looking for him

Yea time saving
I wonder how crazy the routing for this was.
The rerecord count for the submission was just over 200,000 (!) if that helps anything.
Gordon Taylor I don't really get a good picture from rerecords, but for that short of a run that sounds like a lot.
I honestly miss old games so much. The old graphics and sounds... The limitations brought so much creativity.
music nowadays is too unoriginal
The planet needs redemption. A form of radical stave.
9:25
Am I the only one who's noticing the fact that those penguins love Sonic so much that they're slowly transcending into the letter S?
Lol
With that 9:25 u wrote i thought u ment the short moment when Sonic lost balance :D
nahhhhh u crazy?
Nah,it is just the penguin sprite getting overwrited as the sprite letter "S".

This is my favorite speedrun just because of how well Tails is incorporated through the run.
i love the sound of the spin dash in this
Yeah I think it sounds different because the tool is pressing A (or whatever) every frame during the spool up
Sonic knows all the glitchs in the matrix
Sandopolis, longest zone, done in under 5 mins...
Alex Olmsted Anyone can beat sandopolis in under 5 minutes.

Honestly, I love how a Sonic 1 and 2 Tas is normal and then you got Sonic 3 where they tear the game apart.
Proves how big it truly was haha
4:40 sonic's animation fits in the earthquake
Even though it's a TAS, it's really cool and gives an all new meaning to 'Gotta Go Fast'.
Also, Robotnik looking at Sonic & Tails on the cameras, sweating.

I just realized that Ice Cap Zone 1's boss was completely bypassed- it was turned into one zone...

The rest of the zones:
Lol Sonic go zip to the end of the level.
The best TAS ever.

I love that Sonic instead of just running holding the button, he starts dodging bombs.
At 60hz, 201,316 re-records works out to upwards of 2 re-records for every single frame of this run
3:05
Sonic:I'm gonna fall through bridge!
Knuckles:Wait, I didn't have time!
16:51 🤣🤣 the camera finally finds him and he's there waiting impatiently
LMAO
I remember watching these when I was younger and being so amazed on how people were playing so fast and doing all of these tricks.
I wish someone would animate this TAS, in 3D, just to see the weird things in it in 3D glory.
5:19 What The....
10:55 Exploding 0123's and 456's.
Love the flipped sprite with the backwards SONIC in the credits.
The only way you really could improve on this it seems is to find some way to skip the big time bonuses ticking down at the end of the levels. :P
How ironic...a game that punishes you for going really fast by making a specific process take longer the faster you go.
That's actually something that real-time runners like Werster take into account. The 50k time bonus takes a few full seconds to tick off, so sometimes it's faster to wait at the end and miss the big points if you end up saving more time on the end of level screen. I think it would be applicable at Ice Cap Zone, since waiting an extra second would knock the time bonus down to 10k and be a positive trade-off.
maybe he tails to allow sonic to move freely to the loading zone idk
i did it before with debug mode but i have no idea if its possible without it
Actually in classic sonic runs the time is counted by act completion and not overall time
That's exactly why the runs for sonic games subtract time bonuses. You can actually obsolete a shorter run with a longer run without any emulation differences like this, if you improve a stage from e.g. 31 seconds to 29 seconds, although due to how infrequently these are published, this is unlikely
That 4K looks mighty fine. And holy shit this is three minutes faster than the last TAS? Holy shit.

Sonic is playing his own game
I can't watch this game without the original music.
The second act of the first zone omg, the use of the items, beautyful, and i haven't finished the video yet.
This video Really Shows How Sonic Is The Fastest Thing alive.
At some points Sonic will be off screen doing shit
the other version shows exactly where Sonic is at all times with the help of tools
Flying Battery Zone music!
Knuckles, waiting for Sonic at hidden palace.
*Sonic knocks him out in less than a fucking second*
If you watch this at times 2 speed it's what i think Sonic would look like if Sonic himself was trying to go fast and not playing games

Oh yea it's big brain time
