Hi, I have been interested in doing a TAS for these asterix games for a while, but working on other projects at the moment.

I just had a quick question about the Obelix runs. Is there any reason you're not sliding down the slopes as obelix by pressing down? If I recall obelix cant run but he slides down slopes and you can keep some of your momentum by jumping at the end of it. Just be sure to not be pressing right until after you've jumped or you'll instantly lose all speed.

Is this just an inconsistent strat, too laggy or some other reason?

Hello, I've been recently working on an optimized TAS of this game and I hit a little snag that I don't understand. In all the speedruns the spider boss is killed in 4 hits (1 bowling ball, 3 fully charged clubs) even though it appears to have 50 hp. In my attempts it requires 5 hits since each hit does 10 damage.

Is there something I'm missing?

Also, as I'm going I'm creating a resources page here: https://tasvideos.org/GameResources/NES/TheFlintstonesTheSurpriseAtDinosaurPeak

If there's any information I'm missing or have wrong, please let me know, thanks!
