Well I did it on easy and I shan’t be doing it again so I’ll claim my trophy. Overall it’s a fine enough game

The Round Vulcan is by far the most useful weapon imo

It felt really cool to get good at.

It was especially useful in the horizontal levels with all the turrets on the floor/ceiling, you could sweep it back and forth and clear them out. Also the hopping robots in the last level since they fire at you when you’re on the same vertical plane

the vert stages are ok and the hori stages are great. 4/5 game

The horizontal stages are definitely way better than the vertical ones imo

the vertical levels are really cool but they’re more aggravating. every time that it feels like i die when i shouldn’t have it’s on a vertical stage

I think the backgrounds and how the sprites move in relation to it is a little disorienting and can make spatial judgment kind of weird in the vertical stages. At least that seemed to happen to me sometimes

Lol but that looks pretty cool for a 2600 game.

The bosses were all pretty cool imo but the only one that gave me real trouble was the last one since there’s just a ton of poo poo flying around the screen.

i would suggest nes game Super Pitfall, because it's on my list after punch out.

That's one of the worst NES games and nobody should be subjected to it

I feel like if I tried I could probably get the 1cc but I know the second I lost my last life on stage 5 or whatever I would promptly fire a fully charged rail gun through the Trinitron

Fun as hell game, the difficulty really ramps up in the last few stages. The dragon shmup level was probably my least favorite, and the ninjas in the last level kept getting me until I started using the wand more often
