This is one of the most rediculous console style arcade games Ive beaten. I beat this a few years ago and didnt want to revisit it, but I think this game is worth capturing. I didnt have capturing capabilities back then. This makes the NES version look VERY EASY. A fat man with a very high slow and floaty jump trying to weave between bullets with rediculous trial and error scenarios that often make no sense, back to back. I define console style arcade games as games that have a penalty for death. Not games where you can pump in coins to start right where you died.

I will post all of the unedited play time and fuck ups in this playlist and once I complete the game I will have a tutorial version with all deaths edited out. For a game like this I think I really have to show all the raw footage to do the insanity justice. The game really makes no sense. The hardest part is often figuring out how the fuck to progress. Most of the time I start with no power ups since I die at most every checkpoint. This is unlike videos that show people beating the game fully powered up without dying. Much harder this way. I am using rapid fire setting so that definately helps. Regardless the game is still brutal.

The first difficulty spike came at the end of stage 3. From this point on things just get more and more rediculous. Its still in the early phases. There are 10 stages, so expect shit to get wild. Ive added this to my backlog now and will try to work on it often. Let me know if you want to see me complete it again sooner and I will put more time in.

Gun.Smoke is another arcade game that is WAY harder than this since it cannot be memorized. I have about half the game up on this channel but still have alot more left to beat to finish that game. I should finish this game again much sooner than that one.

I make save states in the emulator on checkpoints as well as to practice certain sections before suiciding and redoing each section legit. No cheats are used.

Stay tuned !!
