Around 35 minutes to beat (First loop). This unedited version shows both loops, but removes any lives where no new progress was made. If I got to a checkpoint I leave the death in, but otherwise its removed. Check out the edited version here:
This version of the game has no ending and is missing enemies in the last 2 or 3 stages. Ontop of that the flame boss is insanely specific and anal to beat. I found a very specific way to do it by getting max damage with a certain special move (down,down,kick) done within a specific range of the boss and then getting close enough to kick him repeatedly as I get pushed back and take damage. Only way I could get it done. This unedited version shows the full learning process, but I will save the tutorial version for the finished game which I will try to beat soon. The special move I used was one I discovered on accident as it was not supposed to be available yet.
