This is the final game of the Alex Kidd series, once Sega's flagship series. As the title suggests, this is a bit of a departure from the other games in the series and borrows concepts heavily from the Shinobi (http://tasvideos.org/1308M.html) games.

Here, Alex Kidd's girlfriend has been kidnapped and he needs to go rescue her. In addition to his bizarre ability to use poles and ropes to turn into a fireball, he also apparently has the ability to use ladders to warp through solid walls.

RobynS improves the previous run (http://tasvideos.org/1441M.html) by 6.23 seconds, thanks to better optimisation and new tricks.
