gently caress, I've been following his channels for years and I'm just browsing through his old poo poo that I've forgotten about and it's all incredible. Like the time he tricked the game into rotating mario around a whirlpool on the other side of the stage

Also, it turns out parallel universes save time, not just a presses:

they also did a recording of it running on an actual n64 by way of tasbot

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rTBD3eTK8s

there's also a lengthy description - still in progress - of what they did, including a look into the hows and whys of getting that crazy parallel universe stuff to not crash on real consoles

Meanwhile, during testing Tyler Kehne had found a new glitch that exploited parallel universes, known as the Overflow Jump (OJ). This powerful glitch allows Mario to quickly move to arbitrary locations in the map provided he has PU speed. The team realized the OJ could be useful in other sections of the game, including Bowser in the Fire Sea. Tyler and MKDasher engineered a substantial improvement for BitFS using an OJ, which saved about 2 seconds.

tfw when a game is so optimized you take mario through dimensions that only exist in code to save 2 seconds

ripping holes in physics, time, space and everything in between to save paltry amounts of time is my favourite thing about tas stuff
