Kid Icarus: UprisingI've finally did it. I beat level 7 (the one with Thanatos) in less than 15 minutes. I think i've spent majority of my lunch breaks on work in the last two months trying to do that.
It was so hard because of two reasons:
1)
that one platforming sequence where one wrong movement of a circle pad will kill you instantly and you will have to repeat this whole sequence from the start. That takes lots of precious seconds and even minutes if you screw up there.
2) The level almost has no straight corridors that you can run through using super speed items. The majority of the level consists of halls that are closed down until you kill all monsters in it. Also elevator segment and part where you move on rails also have fixed speed. Player simply doesn't have enough areas that he can boost through to cut his play time.
Ah well, at least i got two achievement for it: the one for doing the level in less than 18 minutes and the one for doing less than 15 minutes.
There is a third achievement on this level that asks you to see Thanatos' all forms before defeating him but i was never able to do that for some reason. He always mixes up his forms and always skips one in my playthroughs. There is probably some trick to it...
Wonderful 101Still collecting Platinums on Normal. Hadn't even touched Hard mode aside from one mission i did by mistake. Funny thing is i didn't realize i am doing level on Hard until almost the very end.
I've played W101 for 65+ hours since i got it, and only have 87 something heroes. No secret characters yet, though i am one achievement away from two of them. These are some tough achievements though.
BayonettaSame, collecting platinums on Normal. Last thing i did was getting platinum on
Temperantia boss fight. That was kinda annoying because i just couldn't NOT to mess up a bit and always got hit and even a small damage downgraded me to Gold instead of Platinum.
In the end i managed to get Plat with bigger combo rank outweighing some small damage. This boss has (by force) taught me how to preserve your combo meter and how to spam my magical force fields against his eye laser attacks. I had to resort to using butterfly ability that absorbed some damage from bosses lightning fist attack from afar that he does after you rip his one arm. Had a lot of problem getting the timing of the dodge for this attack and then just gave up and used butterflies.
