dude
the best part about this game might very well be how angry people are getting over it.
also some recent bitching about ads is also hilariously misplaced. are we to assume that developers are to create without compensation? anyways....
as someone else said, there is at least one video of it being beaten on youtube so it IS possible.
what i like about this is that it reminds me of games i used to play as a kid.
now, im kind of old (like TOM FULP OLD), when i say "games i played as a kid" i mean like NES and in some cases, atari or intellivision. THOSE games required a lot of patience, discovering the exact patterns of enemy movements in order to bypass them and the right timing for jumps or running through dangerous areas, et cetera. i suppose the technological limitations of the day made developers lean towards making games more challenging in order to make the playing times longer for people? i dunno
in any case, this game is as retro conceptually as it is visually. the controls as well, i should mention, are pretty smooth and very appropriate for the genre. in fact, a lot of games like this from the late 80s had shittier response, so people should stop bitching about being unable to get the hang of it.
people will probably rate my review as useless (even though it contains relevant feedback and observations) just because they dont like it, and thatps probably because the current generation's idea of gaming is more in line with their prevailing need for immediate gratification.
Whatever, man. this shit is mad retro. This game is great.
