At long last, here is the first rank 5 tool-assisted speedrun in the Papa's Pizzeria series! Special thanks to JokerTropical for modifying the game to give a consistent order of customers (and CorgisDerp for changing the Burgeria logo), this TAS would not be possible otherwise.
In case you have any questions about the run, I'll answer those here:
1. What is a TAS?
- TAS stands for Tool-Assisted Speedrun, and it involves beating a game (or clearing a certain goal in a game) as fast as possible, while using certain tools in order to showcase what is *theoretically* possible. In this case, I used python in order to move my mouse to exact locations at specific times.
2. What do TAS timing and RTA timing mean?
- I made 2 timers on the side of the screen in order to compare the different timing methods. TAS timing starts on the first input of the run, which in this scenario means reloading the game. RTA timing stands for Real Time Attack timing, and is how speedruns on speedrun.com are timed. In this case, the timer starts upon selecting Papa Louie.
(if any more questions arise, I'll edit the description and put them here.)
If you've made it this far into the description, pay close attention to the grill station during days 2-5 of the run. I may have hidden an easter egg there... ;)
