This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/3776M.html. TAS originally published on 2018-09-01.

Set in a post-apocalyptic New York, Double Dragon is the story of Billy and Jimmy Lee, twin brothers trained in the fighting style of Sou-Setsu-Ken. Together, they manage a small martial arts training school, teaching their students in self-defense. One day, Billy's girlfriend, Marian, is kidnapped off the street by the "Black Warriors", a savage street gang led by a man named Willy. The Black Warriors demand the Lee brothers disclose their martial arts secrets in exchange for Marian's freedom. The Lee brothers set out on a rescue mission to crush the Black Warriors and save Marian.

Released on many systems, this game was so popular that they even released it for cellular phones and made a board game. Even a Hollywood movie (imdb.com/title/tt0106761/) has been made.

sugarfoot improves his previous TAS (tasvideos.org/3703M.html) by 33.78 seconds, mainly thanks to improved combo sequences. Please read the author's comments (tasvideos.org/6078S.html) for more details.

We also have TASes of the NES port (tasvideos.org/3211M.html) and the unlicensed Genesis port (tasvideos.org/2634M.html).

I remember the days watching the bigger kids and adults trying to be good at this game, imagine demonstrating these skills back in the day, they would think you weren't human!

4:43 if you set the game to Very Hard, the difficulty is higher, but the bricks will NOT come out of the wall. Considering that they are probably the most difficult part of the whole game, I think it's a good option to do it.

At 4:04 there's a rock with C1 5T written on it. I wonder that means?! Edit - Also at 5:12 - That strat where you take damage to lure the brutes onto the dynamite is genius. WTF @ 6:00. Mind blown

Remember, any time you chuck a dude over your head backwards, shout "eeeeggghhhh.... " in a really half-assed way.

Amazing little known fact... at the end when she unleashed herself, broke a foot with the drop and so the hero carried her all the way back to level 1 which was a heavier burden than dropping all those bad guys to their deaths.

fun fact. On stage 2 - everyone gets dropped into a pit/ledge
