[TAS] Arcade Metal Slug 3 by zk547 in 24:27.8

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see http://tasvideos.org/3344M.html. TAS originally published on 2017-03-02.

In this entry of the popular Metal Slug series, the evil would-be dictator General Morden launches another attempt to take over the world - or so it seems on the surface; this game proves that Morden is no Dr Wily by having the true villains turn out to be something else entirely.

Several of this game's stages branch; this run takes the shortest possible route through the game.

This run is faster than the predecessor movie (http://tasvideos.org/1819M.html) by 2:41.75 (9,705 Frames @60 FPS) minutes. Improvements come from using new strategies, using new tricks/glitches, and optimizing everything better.
