Well this game was pretty short. I had troubles with the controls at first but once you level up and gain a few techniques it isn't that bad (but I still want to throttle the coder responsible for the jumping controls). Needless to say i figured out what my problem was with the river city high gate. You needed to backtrack way back to find an easily missed boss, then and only then will subsequent bosses appear (you need to find/beat all the bosses to trigger the gate to open). Usually the bosses tell you where the next boss is but without a map its pretty pointless. One of the bosses even neglects to mention that before the boss he tells you about will show up you have to beat another boss before. I'm not sure how you're supposed to know that but whatever...This is an old school game after all. BTW for some bosses you have to beat every enemy in the area before they will appear; and don't throw Thor into the pit or else it doesn't count for some reason.
the writing in this game is pretty humorous, lolmonade's first post is basically the very first thing you read in the game and is a pretty good indication of how silly it is. (I think its intentional, but with games from this era you never know) This game is short, and most of your time will be grinding and general difficulty hurdles but it was pretty fun, warts and all.
I was hoping for a hilarious
engrish phrase at the end of the credits roll but all I got was a lousy "the end"
