Commander Keen Episode V: The Armageddon Machine (Any %) (Single Segment)

No cheating, AV ok. timing 2:31 (starting from gaining control of character until shrapnel hits the glass sphere)

Luck factors (e.g. the shrapnel hitting the thingy at the end, shockhunds) taken into consideration this becomes an easy accept despite a few minor mistakes that all happened in the last level. Mistakes that I could see - missing two pogo jumps to get to the green gem. Not avoiding the moving platform when coming down from the green gem. A little bit of hesitation after stunning all but one shockhund. Maybe the climb up after the "fire bridge" could be optimised a little.

Overall there are slightly more risky strats available in QED especially, so another few seconds could perhaps be shaved.

Looks like you don't necessarily need six zappers from the Secret Base, three would have been enough this time with 8 shots to spare. If you start missing a lot of shots on the hunds you'll have a difficult time improving the record anyway. It's a tiny little improvement to get just three.

ACCEPT! Congrats!

Not sure where character control ends, but quality is solid, no evident cheating.  I get the same 2:31 as above.

There are several mistakes (a missed jump or two, etc.) or areas that take just a little longer than they might.  Certainly it seems as though 4-5 seconds could come off with several hundred/thousand more attempts, but the luck-based nature of the ending and the generally good performance throughout make it worthy of SDA, for sure.

Accept.

A/V is fine.

Run is short, maybe 5 seconds of mistakes, accept.


Decision: Accept

Congratulations to Arturs 'Xarthok' Demiters!
