Still alive! Apparently that hospital admission + the various things over the month afterwards really did a number on me. Whats annoying is that this has been recorded for a short while, Ive just been a bit too ill and tired to edit it together.
Theres been other issues than the throat, just various things combining together really. Still, I think Im recovering somewhat.
Its unfortunate that this game almost ends on a whimper - Stage 8 isnt very fun, and has a few rather dreadful boss fights in it, but at the very least, the fun but difficult Final Boss more than makes up for it. Plus we get Konami Mode 7 effects ripped straight from Castlevania! Whats not to love, other than how slow that entire segment is!? :V
Still, I adore this game. The endgame is definately weaker than the other Rocket Knight games, but I think how Sparkster controls in this game combined with some honestly great stages earlier on, the amount of unique details, fun if scrappy bosses, polish and sheer charm really make up for it.
