Kind of a mixed bag this time around. I'm clearly getting better at this game, but it's less a matter of things clicking and more a case of making conscious concessions to the game itself. This is not a good sign as far as I'm concerned. It feels akin to telling people that it's okay when your child smashes something with sentimental value (or really expensive), because they're just "expressing" themself.

If the supercharge was a mere annoyance in the first stream, this is the point where it graduated into a massive problem. It was so bad, that KI literally had to send me videos to find two dragon statues. One of them had a route that was so convoluted, it was difficult to even handle all of the jumping in the first place... and the other was completely hidden from sight! Seriously, the final dragon I found in this stream... how is anyone supposed to figure out where it is without a guide?

On the plus side, I managed to keep pace with my progress from the last time. One stage into the fifth world. Hopefully, there won't be anything to keep me waiting next time. I wanna get to the second game ASAP... both for the sake of making progress (really don't wanna go beyond my Thanksgiving deadline), but also because I'm hoping the second game is significantly more refined in terms of its controls.
