Introduction

Another one to my Prince of Persia collection. This movie draws heavily from the route and tricks of the current RTA by TascoDLX, but adds new tricks and optimizations thanks to the use of JaffarPlus. During the work on this movie I had contact with TascoDLX who gave feedback and helped me figure out some of the tricks.

The major glitches exploited here is the ability of going through gates and walls through precise jumps, as well as the ability to scroll around the screen when fighting a guard (thanks to an overflow glitch). These tricks, combined with perfect execution make for an entertaining solution (including moonwalking towards the princess!)
