Ty the Tasmanian Tiger speedrun guide

Ty the Tasmanian Tiger any% guide (v1)

~Basics~
A run starts on the screen that warns you about auto saving, run ends when you enter the loading
screen with the boomerang on it. No cheat codes allowed or hacking tools/emulator tools (duh)

~Tricks~
Mountain Climb - When you're able to walk up certain mountains
Mountain Jump - When you're able to jump up certain mountains
Glide Dive - When you press the button to bite while gliding over water to enter and go farther
underwater than usual
Slide Glide - While going down a slide, press the jump button then press it again to glide on the
slide. Hard to do because you normally can't glide on slopes, you have to do it from the edge of the


slide.

~Tips~
1. Jumping left to right on a water slide is faster than holding the speed up button because when
you hold speed up, you lose most of your control over Ty
2. Do a Glide Dive anytime you have to enter water, it's faster than walking in and diving
3. Jump whenever you're on a flat path, it saves frames and is faster than walking
4. Skip ANY cutscene you get into, don't mash the jump button, that's not skipping the scene

~Animation skips~
Snow Worries: When getting the Thunder Egg at the top of the mountian, get the Big Frills close to
you before you grab it, if done right, one will punch you as soon as you pick up the Thunder Egg,
skipping the animation of getting it.
Bridge on the River Ty: When you beat Neddy, mash the skip cutscene button to get the Thunder Egg
then talk to him again then exit to skip the animation of getting the egg.
