Mod: Jenka's Nightmare: Jenka No Akumu
Release Date: 2014
Author: Zarro Tsukei/ZarroTsu
Difficulty: Hard

I played this before, and i did 2 videos about the game even, but that was a long time ago, anyway, i decided to record this since there's no video on YT about the 5 secret rooms of the game, and after finding each one of them i can see why, Rant incoming!

Plot:
So what is Jenka's Nightmare? a mod of CS and like every hack of a game, "A sequel to the original" taking place one year after the events of the OG CS. Quote, Curly, Balrog and Co. are taken back to the island by Jenka and it's up to Quote and later in the game, Curly to figure out what is happening

About the Secret Rooms:
The Secret Rooms are well, Secret Rooms spread in the game hidden in cryptic locations, there are 5 of them and they're optional, but finding each one rewards you with something neat (According to the game of course), Some rooms are a one time go room, this means, that after some time in the progression of the game you wouldn't be able to come back to these rooms again and surprise, you need to find the five if you want to access the super secret room and his reward, otherwise you must start the game over, so backing up your file may be a wise decision

Locations:
Secret Room 1:
In 'First Cave' lure the critter in the Top right to the door that leads to the 'Start Point?' and use it as a steeping stone to propel you to the platform with a Bat, then jump into the bat and hold your jump button and the left direction, and you should squeeze into the gap. avoid the spikes and enter the cave.

Secret Room 2:
In 'Mimiga Village' head to the reservoir door (To the left of the Save point) and as soon as you enter jump into the water and jump as soon as you touch the ground inside the water all the way to the left using the momentum of your jumps. after that just climb up to the door and enter

Secret Room 3:
So for this room you need to align "Mimiga" and "Flower" teleporters, use the Mimiga Teleporter to go to "Flower", then go to the left and use the 'Beetles' as steeping stones to climb up all the way to the 'Gaudi' Teleporter, feed the puppy and use the teleporter to go to the "Misery Abode". This one is kinda tricky to do. (Tip: Do this before getting the Booster v0.8)

Secret Room 4:
After you return from "the labyrinth" return to the Sand Zone and align "Gaudi" and "Flower" teleporters and use the "Mimiga teleporter" to teleport to the "Labyrinth" teleporter, as soon as you come out of the "Labyrinth" teleporter use the Dog Whistle to trap yourself in the area making the teleporters reset, but making the teleporter still active, simply use it again to teleport to Room 4

Secret Room 5:
At some point you gain control of Curly, ask "Balrog" for your Machine Gun (Important: While playing as Quote if you took the Machine Gun from Balrog give it back) and level the weapon to Level 3 to propel yourself to a door in "Plantation" that is only accessible with curly. The Door is above the Save Room (Tip: Find all the ammo for the machine gun while playing as Quote and then give it back to Balrog)

Super Secret Room:
If you entered at least one Secret Room you can enter "Jenka's Fireplace" in the 'Sand Zone', but if you want the "Big Reward" you need to enter all of the "Secret Rooms" in the Game and beat the Boss Rush inside of the room , otherwise you need to play all the game from the beginning and find all of them to enter. Completing the Boss Rush gives you a Secret item called "Pointed Glasses", Use them in the Final phase of the Final Boss Battle to see new text and a hear a Cave Story rendition of "Sorairo Days" main theme from "Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann" (Tip: Go for the "Spur" first, assuming you got it before entering this room),

Opinions:
I liked the Mod from start to finish, it's a neat mod and that's all, it kinda feels like a sequel to the game. As for the secret rooms themselves, are they worth it? Well, No, at least personally it didn't, all i got for my troubles finding the damn secret rooms was an item that changes one small portion of the game, don't get me wrong i like Gurren Lagann but the item and the different music is not worth your pain in the Boss Rush, and to address the evident cheating on that, i tried so much honest tries, i really did, but the Boss Rush wasn't fun to complete, it was a bitch of a time to complete with just 64HP, and after some attempts doing it the legal way i was fucking done, i edited the fucking save to be able to beat that stupid boss rush because it wasn't fun, so yeah, good mod, bad reward
