[TAS] SNES The Lion King by EZGames69 & SBDWolf in

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/4735M
TAS originally published on 2022-06-23
The Lion King, based on the famous Disney movie, is a platform game where you control Simba - initially as a young cub, and later as an adult lion. The plot of the game follows the plot of the movie. Each of the levels represents a part of the movie.
EZGames69 ( tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/E... ) and SBDWolf ( tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/S... ) save 1:28 over the previous run ( tasvideos.org/2716M ) by playing on the easiest difficulty instead of the hardest and through better manipulation of the RNG. For more details, you can read the authors' comments ( tasvideos.org/7506S ).
For a TAS of the slightly different Genesis port, you can find it here ( tasvideos.org/4081M ).

RIP to all the kids who never survived level 2

[@DKQuagmire]

[@SmaugUKA]

I wonder if Asmongold's Chat is going to let him know about this considering he's watched a WR Speedrun of this game prior. Now he'll get to see what a TAS can do.

Simba really couldn't wait to be king!

[@SirHattington]

It's appropriate that the into for a TAS of a Lion King game uses a furry waifu for the picture

[@jordanpeterson5038]

Probably one of the hardest games known to man

[@B3Band]

This game was so ridiculously hard as a kid. And this speedrun just obliterates it!

[@chrisfearn4837]

That puzzle section drives me mad every single time I play it

[@Mikewee777]

Cheat codes and tool assisted inputs are the only way to experience this game in it's entirety .

Just like the movie

Great run! Fun to watch, but the execution of the ostrich-ride in the second level makes me hate myself, that looks so easy 😆.

[@ggarzagarcia]

Fun to watch!

[@retrorun]

Great execution!

[@GillesMeyer]

I knew about 2 skips in Exile, but that was a Glitch Party :D Awesome Run!

This was so hard as a kid. I always used to get stuck on the first adult level against the panthers.

[@fonzworthbentley7455]

The ??? Rock during the stampede would get me every time

[@penelopenoble9250]

AVGN should do a review of this game.

[@alien_man1669]

I used to get stuck at climbing the waterfall when I was a kid but the ending broke my patience after years of trying to beat this game I could never figure out how to throw scar off the cliff and then I did it by accident mashing buttons. Best accidental win ever lol this was years after my Genesis died and I was playing with emulator and save states but still a win haha

[@Xx1SailorScoutxX]

I did beat this game (on DIFFICULT) as a child; however, it took me a LOT of practice.
