The most amazing TAS you've ever seen!
 
Have a look here at Dooty's awesome WIP TAS! I'm going to finish it for him whilst he does the 100%!

Can you explain how you skipped it?

I don't quite understand what happened when Abe was attacked by the bees.

What's so impressive in a speedrun using additional tools?

The idea of a TAS is to show in "theory" what can be achieved, everything shown within can be performed by a human, but you'd have to have a lot of luck and skill to be able to pull everything off perfectly.

This is a death abuse glitch. I'd guess this one involves being killed by bees on the exact frame they leave.

Is the gamespeak and movement important, or is that just an easy way of getting precise frame timings?

e: You can hear Abe die at 5:15. It might have something to do with the sneaking state interrupting knockdowns. Everything else is _probably_ just for precise timings.

e2: also I would absolutely love to learn a single-segment route for this game.

A Real time run may be able to look just like this but I'll be doing my segmented update soon.

Edit: I will be finishing the TAS first before making my RTA update.

Am I right about how the bees work though?

I hope you are prepared for the speedrun in New 'n' Tasty Sam, There won't be any ledge, death or wall glitches in it! :P
