If you love 'retro', old school 2-D action platformers, and you haven't heard of this one, you probably need to check out this video.

One aspect of the game that I failed to mention in this take of the video, is its resemblance to the Mega Man games. After the first level, you get to choose what order you take down the levels / bosses.

The bosses are all mythical creatures, and their levels take place in the country that those myths come from (Medusa / Greece).
After you defeat all.....I think it was like 11 bosses, you essentially go to the equivalent of a series of Dr. Wily stages.

If you make it to these end stages, you are free to save / quit the game whenever you want, and resume on whatever stage of the gauntlet you were on, but be careful. You also have the option to 'return to map' or something like that. Choosing that will return you to the stage select screen, and reset your progress through the end stages. I didn't have this problem, because it tells you this before you enter the final stages, but apparently a lot of people online didn't pay attention to that, and were pretty upset about it.

The final thing I'll say here is that each boss gives you a weapon, but like all other weapons in the game, they have an energy bar, and can break. Also, it doesn't really matter which order you take down the bosses in, as the different weapons are not as critical in making other bosses easier.
