Spinko a Mole

What are you doing?

Using Bizhawk to plan out my route for Spyro 2 100% and practice all the important movement and tricks in the route. This is a TAS (I'm recording it to a video with all my bad mistakes cut out) but I'm not optimizing it like a proper TASer would, because I'm doing this with RTA speedruns in mind.

Why are you doing this?

I suck at Spyro 2 100% and there are many places where I don't know what I'm doing, I improvise way too much, this makes me feel bad. So instead of practicing normally, I'm experimenting with TASing and at the same time solidifying my route and strats (obviously using the best available speedruns of this category as a reference) so I can feel better while running 100%. Perfect opportunity to learn all the new routes and stuff too. I am also using Early Ripto route, so this is a great opportunity to really experiment with what bigger Sparx range does and how many corners I can skip.

Are you ever gonna do actual TASes?

Probably not. If this works and actually improves my movement and makes me better at the game (it should) I'll consider doing this for (some of) my other speedgames too!
