The last set of quests are just higher level revisits of the past worlds including their unique bosses, though the last stage does have 1 more unique boss. It is a really long video so I am just going to timestamp everything below followed by my closing statements on the game:

I also forgot to mention whichever video I finally turned up my bitrate for, apparently I was at 2,500 and I jumped to 8,000 for I think these recent 5~ parts? This video file size was 13 GB after rendering which reminded me, hopefully it handles the game better.

Final Final Boss @ 1:48:39

Area 6: Lake + Factory Revisit @ 0:20:44

Overall, this game is what I expected from it even with the little I did see before hand. I didn't expect it to be so easy, but at the same time with so much going on it would be a little frustrating if it wasn't. Even just trying to play optimal and not get hit at all I did get a little annoyed by things that felt out of my control.

One thing that surprised me was the game length, it was actually longer than I expected. It really is a lot of repetitiveness, but as little difference as there is I was pleasantly surprised they had so many different 'levels'. It could have easily just been the 5~6 unique layouts for each world + a boss for something like 1~3 hours.

I did want it with the possibility of speedrunning or at least routing the game out as I enjoy doing that which for me makes it worth it @ $20 while on sale. The fact that I can't find any speedruns of it and just playing normally have started to recognize some level layouts gets me excited to at least route out some things.

I think on average people may get 5~ hours of enjoyment of a not super demanding basically hack and slash / beat em up. Maybe 15~ hours if they push themselves to the end?

I also learnt about what happens when your whole stack dies. I rushed the quests @ 1:26:32 , forgot to revive in-between floors, and just barely died. What I didn't know is that the flashing "Hold X" @ 1:27:06 is actually a good thing, somehow I thought it was a give up button. I tested it out finally at the end of the video @ 1:54:58
