For the first 20-odd minutes I was watching this, I was thinking, "It's pretty precise and speedy, but there's hasn't been anything particularly broken happening." Then 20:23 happened, and all that waiting paid off.
Wow, Millstone Mayhem was the definition of big-brain time. Going through incredible lengths to sacrifice Diddy Kong to allow Donkey Kong to take the warp barrel, only to sacrifice Donkey on reentry to allow Diddy to finish properly.
Always fascinates me about the many secret ways to get to levels or more so every stage is unique and different even if it is all stages one area of a map. Makes me wonder witch levels is where in the map lol but like damn. Now I want to play the game
20:00 hmm, I feel like there is something TASy going on. Probably stole data corrupting. 20:23 or that. XD I mind the camera having trouble following what's going on. ^^
Hey Tompa, I'd love to see a short video on how you made this if possible. I am curious how TAS works and although I can watch tutorial vids, they usually show mario games and I'd love to see how you record/create some of these cool tricks. You can find me in the discord as well. Awesome job here man!
I roughly did a stream of this awhile ago and put up on TH-cam, which was mostly a guide for Rainbow Sparklez, but because it's not very well-organized and generally messy + that I didn't like it, I just put it up as unlisted. I can't really remember what is included in it, but you can see it here: th-cam.com/video/o_VmJcOaJlA/w-d-xo.html Maybe I'll have another stream, better one, in the future =).
Normally to enter the bonus barrel I end the level with, you need to enter a barrel on the right of the banana that's briefly seen at 13:47. After you enter the bonus barrel, it will disappear, so if you would then enter the barrel at the banana to be blasted to the left, you'll eventually go all the way to the barrel seen at 13:37 and shot up to the right on the platform.
I only go by what the game itself considers to be 101%, which is not even all boss fights, only the final boss is technically neccesary for this. All bananas and balloons are impossible to get all without replaying levels several times. In the GBA version, the 101% requires you to get all KONG letters however, because you are needed to get the 52 cameras.
TASes end their timing on the final input needed to reach "The end". The jump I did at 41:18 was the last input press after that I just wait for KKR to return, take a hit, Donkey jumps up automatically and hits him on the way down.
Wait, how do you get that warp at the first world, right at 9:08 in the video? I remember I was able to get it right on the actual console back in the days, but now everytime I try it on the emulator, I just don't get it. Wonder if it's somewhat related to the version of the game, and I'm playing a different version than the one I used to play? More likely that I just don't remember what buttons to press, or even a input lag (i clearly remember this trick was difficult because it was almost a frame-perfect input)... What buttons do you press for that?
That warp will only work on US 1.0, 1.1 and PAL 1.0, 1.1. It won't work on US 1.2, which includes all released for Virtual Console and it will also not work on any Japanese version. The way it's done is to simply press a button: A, B, X, Y or Start, in one of the four corners on the map screen. The timing is one frame only, so it might be a bit tricky, but if you just spam the buttons you'll get it eventually. And you must only have one character on the map or both in the Funky Barrel, as seen in this TAS. Hopefully you'll get it to work! =)
If you jump when approaching the narrow path, you can jump through the first part of it and be able to land on enemies in the tunnel. At the start of any of the phases of the Really Gnawty, take hit before he starts his high jumps, which will then skip the cycle.
I watched this but I had no idea what is happening.I played the Gba version so the overworld level select screen was a complete mess. This is my first time seeing the Snes version.
I'm setting up a glitch called Superjump. I first need to wait for the Krusha to walk towards the edge of the platform, I use this opportunity to do a little glitch with the TNT barrel. If you press Down and release Y just after making a jump, you are able to put the barrel down in midair. Most barrels will just drop down to the ground again, but the TNG barrel will stay in midair while it explodes, which looks kinda neat. Anyway: For the Superjump there are a couple of steps you need to do. First, get hit with the Kong you want to activate the glitch with later. I had to switch to Donkey Kong, because the barrel I go into doesn't spawn as Diddy. You need to get hit so that Donkey makes a high jump and disappears off-screen, which you need the slope for. Next, break a DK barrel to get him back. The next time you take damage, you want to hold down the B button and land on an enemy. You'll now fly upwards for as long as you hold down B. And that's what I do to reach that Warp Barrel. Normally, you are supposed to go further to the right, find a tire and then push it back to the left, which is a lot slower to do than this. Hope that explains it, otherwise I'll gladly clarify!
@@TompaA Thank you very much for the explanation, this is very informative - and I absolutely did not expect such a detailed answer. Everything is clear!
I have this game on my hacked psp and I've just learned how to the jump roll glitch. Is it possible for me to do the super jump roll with extendos in Forest frenzy as well or do I have to use a tas run to do that?
It's a tricky one. While I used a glitch to reach it, you are normally supposed to push a tire from the right. You can only enter the barrel as Donkey.
Alright, Tompa, because I'm curious. Exactly how much time do you save by doing that warp to Orang-utan Gang as opposed to just beating Master Necky and playing through World 3 normally?
Hmm, good questions. I rarely save my numbers, how much faster/slower something it. I just tested it, the result showed it was faster and then I was happy and continued. I suppose I could check...

Even just the music during the level select screen is nostalgic. What a gem game
This dude brought an ostrich to a water level
Incrivel,e ainda conseguiu controlar
Talk about fucking the level design, am I right?
That's why I love TAS videos.
That ostrich has a name you uncultured swine, it's Expresso.
CHEATED
i cant say enough about the soundtrack in this game
Second on the SNES only to dkc2
Childhood memory soundtracks
Well I can
"Enough"
Me too,
“enough about the soundtrack in this game”
"When i was you age it took me only one life and less than an hour "Cranky Kong.
So this is what he was doing back then
Yes, of course...the old swimming with the ostrich trick. That's the obvious way to beat the level.
For 1994 I can really appreciate the graphics in this game.
Nearly as good as Cranky Kong used to be.
... apparently.
But Cranky Kong did in one life, I actually died twice :(. Cranky is still superior.
Well done, Tompa! ^^
'Nearly'
he will always say that no matter how good you do so his words are pointless anyways

Diddy Kong's just rolling around at the speed of sound
Diddy Kong Racing.
Can't stick around got to keep moving!

The Bee Boss was prolly like, "Am I high?! I know I'm hitting them!"
It's a good thing Cranky doesn't make TAS's otherwise every level in this would be on the epicness level of Crocopus Chase.
the ending was super cool, just doing things to entertain us tas amazes me man, shit is so cool
10 years for this??! Awesome!!
Amazing - I’ve been waiting my whole life
Can we just have a moment of silence for Diddy’s hat? 😢😢
When kids do normal rolls and cartwheels:
Wow! Awesome!
When DK and Diddy Kong do the rolls:
*They see me rolling, they hating*
This TAS video needs more love
insanity! Finally it has been done :D Congratzs Tompa. Impressive.
8:44 "I need to go now. My planet needs me"
jajaja
Note: Diddy Kong died on the way back to his home planet
This is what happens when you try to run away from Donkey Kong.
This is Diddy's game, Donkey Kong's just along for the ride
diddy kong country (ft. donkey kong)
Cranky to Donkey: "I can do better."
Dear god this is such an awesome tas, i really enjoyed watching it!
just finished the game for the first time,now i'll try 101%
Right before Diddy enters the second bonus in the 1st level, Rambi looks at the camera like, "The fuck?"
8:44 This wasn't how I learned to fly.
He flies in pure anger
Wow, Millstone Mayhem was the definition of big-brain time.
Going through incredible lengths to sacrifice Diddy Kong to allow Donkey Kong to take the warp barrel, only to sacrifice Donkey on reentry to allow Diddy to finish properly.
Golden rhinos are cool
I don’t even know what’s happening in these levels 70% of the time, but still fun to watch.
20:23 wait, that's illegal
39:18
It all comes down to this.
Always fascinates me about the many secret ways to get to levels or more so every stage is unique and different even if it is all stages one area of a map. Makes me wonder witch levels is where in the map lol but like damn. Now I want to play the game
11:44 DK made sure she didnt get back up by throwing another barrel which was hilarious
8:45 Lol dude levitated into heaven out of frustration 🤣
25:47 lol
This is like when Neo mastered the matrix
41:11.31 rta timing
edit: i timed it using livesplit
Lol when diddy kong misses the prize puzzle box he throws his hat on the ground in anger and stomps around
Diddy went on to become a tire in Mario Kart.
So technically I have been TASing in the past without the rerecording and video clipping. I just called it save state hacking
@14:08 Diddy: Aight ima bounce!

Game: player.
Game: wat r u doin
Game: player. Srsly.
Game: pls.
Game: STAHP

20:23 or that. XD

What do you call a DLC that helps Kong's Dong expand even further?
The Expansion Pack.
Sunbro Solaire worth their scroll
pun checks out
45:23 so did ‘i’ (referring to this TAS being i)
I actually died at 20:05
Cranky is clearly better =).
oh haha.. well can cranky glitch out the game like mad in the minute following the death? probably not :)

13:37 What is that Barrel at the bottom of the screen as he jumps into the continue barrel?

After you enter the bonus barrel, it will disappear, so if you would then enter the barrel at the banana to be blasted to the left, you'll eventually go all the way to the barrel seen at 13:37 and shot up to the right on the platform.
Still my favorite of the original dkc games.
good times
That's my birthday, Tompa!
Is it easier to do the run with Diddy leading?
Diddy is a lot faster than Donkey, main reason to use him.
I was very surprised the 100% category doesnt include getting KONG letters on every stage, and getting all the bannanas, 1ups, etc.
I only go by what the game itself considers to be 101%, which is not even all boss fights, only the final boss is technically neccesary for this. All bananas and balloons are impossible to get all without replaying levels several times.

2. Enter all 67 bonuses.
3. Beat King K Rool.

I love it. Question though, how can the score be 101% with World Necky 2 not finished?
The %counter don't count for the bosses, except for King K Rool.
There is a new route that skips two bosses, through a lot of extra warping around.
