I realized a while back exactly why the 30 Cities goal spawned on screen... it has something to do with scenario-specific goals listed in the instruction manual. I have accordingly switched the name and instructions around that category to make it more in line with what it is you are doing.

You are now able to accomplish this goal in any of the first 4 scenarios (scenario 5 has no specific objective other than to beat the game). While I doubt any scenario is faster than the first, now y'all can try if you want :)

If anybody is interested in different types of categories or whatever for this, hit me up. I was under the impression that the full game here isn't really speedrunnable due to absolutely massive length but I could be wrong :)

With the submission of a non-NES run (my own), I took the liberty of establishing sub-categories for each full category for a few of the potential systems (ones I think most likely to get some action). If someone ever wants to submit a run for a game system not represented, we can add another one at that time.

Hello! Would it be possible to create a Colecovision variable of this game so that I could submit a speedrun for this? It appears to be a lot faster than the Atari2600, so just submitting it in the same category wouldn't be terribly appealing.

Here is my vod doing the 5k points version. I have a 10k points version as well but haven't got around to getting that uploaded.

I was thinking about adding an additional category to the game: Become a Squire. It would essentially be a race to get recognized by the King and get your first rank. The appeal of this is in how it doesn't seem clear at the onset what the quickest way to do this would be. It would also involve quite a bit of RNG, which could increase the replayability.

Any thoughts?

I would like to submit a speedrun for this game, but under a different category, as I have played it on the Colecovision. The game is too different to submit to an existing category, I think. Here is a run I did today to give an idea of what this looks like:

The game has a bonus stage after Earth and then loops back to the beginning (similar enough to the NES version). I drew up the speedrun to end once Earth is in sight since ending on a bonus stage seemed silly.

I would submit this run under the category but am not done running this and hope to get a good deathless run in soon. Thank you!

Watched the runs posted here, and the version of this game I've played (on Colecovision) is longer and quite different. Would you make a Colecovision category for the game? Goal would be to save Smurfette (which happens about a minute into the game).

Here's an example run to compare:

Could a Colecovision category be added for this game?

I've had the desire to run this game for a while, but after playing it and comparing it to the runs on here, it's apparent that the Colecovision version is too different of a game to put on the same level as the arcade one. It's slower, but you have to kill less enemies (I think) and the 2001 level doesn't even exist (making the loop quicker). I recorded a trial version to give you an idea of what that means:
