4:54.299 SMB1 ANY% WORLD RECORD ON HALLOWEEN WHILE LARPING AS MARIO! It doesn't even feel real that I actually achieved this, but here we are. Only 2 frames (33 milliseconds) stand between this run and absolute perfection / TAS tie. 4:54.265 next!

We can accelerate Mario across the screen! We can run! We can skid! We can jump across a large gap. Heck - we can even swim!
How?
Let's find out!

I'm happy to introduce my new NES homebrew game, Ranaga! It's an arcade-style vertically scrolling shooter featuring randomized waves of enemies. See how long you can survive! You can download it and play it for free at arnpoly.itch.io/ranaga

Yesterday, I got 4:54.332 SMB1 ANY% WORLD RECORD!! This run was TAS tie pace to walljump and I lost a frame on the pipe entry, but with a great turnaround room, I was able to clutch out WR by 2 frames! We're now 4 frames / 0.06s from TAS tie, and I won't stop until it's achieved!

If we had a nickel for every time Anthony Rizzo's caught a Cubs home run in the bleachers, we'd have two nickels.
Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice!

The first in a series of #blog posts deep-diving into #Faxanadu for #NES, going over how it all works.
We're starting with IScripts (Interaction Scripts). These compact binary scripts are run whenever you interact with an NPC or item.
