First of many upcoming Mania+ Playthroughs, starting with Axel.
Done in two attempts, I had a horrible showing on stages 4 and 5, the latter where the run ended. I felt mostly satisfied with this run up until stage 12. Where things went south quickly. Defensively I was all over the place and felt I could've turned the situation around had I positioned myself better before the robos, losing 4 lives in the process. At the very least, getting through the Big Ben parade resurfaced my confidence to complete the run. Hopefully, when I get around to using Axel's alternate moves, I can pull off a better run. Clearly, stage 12 needs some practice!

E-Stadium is where I started to really tinker around the gadgets for better speed. Pretty fun getting this sorted to see how I can blast ahead better which has worked online in some cases! Catching the good shortcuts wasnt bad to figure out and utilize well, took a few attempts to get the S-Rank.
Some can be said about Rainbow Garden. I was worried that flying may be my weakness for speed, but after I got that down, it didnt take too much longer to get it down.
Water Palace is one of my favourite tracks. I got this first time on stream and did it again for recording. I dont know what the S-Rank time is.

![[NES] Silver Surfer - No Deaths Playthough](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/unLbJkUGuPs/mqdefault.jpg "[NES] Silver Surfer - No Deaths Playthough
Boredom brought me to this.
Played this game for the first time live on Friday and beat it in a couple hours. Slept very early last night and I decided to do a no death run which lasted a couple hours. Controller issues had me die in places I dont normally die in but thankfully I found another controller to use.
- Reptyl
Good level to start off with, getting all the powers ups and all the sections were never terrible to do. Primer to start off everything.
- Mephisto
Wont lie, found this the most annoying stage, purly because of section 2. With the hands that shoot fireballs, Ive never truly gauged when to move ahead to avoid getting hit. I tried to be as patient as I can. Sometimes they just wouldnt shoot at all!
- Firelord
This was the section where the first 2 sections in my first playthrough took ages. Collisions are the greatest enemy.
- Possessor
Nothing to bad here for Not Bret Hart. Section 2 took a bit in my first run. Never had issues afterwards.
- Emperor
Green Thanos section 1 was the section in my first playthrough which got me more. I am thinking the top down sections where the parts of the game which killed me more!
- Magik Domain
In my first run, Magik Domain section 1 did not go bad at all, purely because I was super passive and having all the powerups really helped. In my later runs, dying and playing without the powerups was so, so horrible! Learning the other two sections was a nightmare too, which is why I was surprised I beat the game on my first playthrough. It does not play around
Hope you enjoyed my playthrough!

Decided to 100% Rondo of Blood, playing through all levels, killing all bosses and saving all characters.
Throughout this month I have been playing all sorts of Castlevania games and Rondo of Blood is one of the ones Ive enjoyed the most. Through its fun levels, alternating paths which gives replayability and some very interesting secrets in the levels, Rondo of Blood continued from the level variety Castlevania 3 had and put it into the 16bit era of games, being just as enjoyable as ever.
Hope you enjoy the playthrough!

![[SNES] Final Fight 2 - Carlos on Expert, 1CC](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vDHNEIJBcgk/mqdefault.jpg "[SNES] Final Fight 2 - Carlos on Expert, 1CC
Felt like going through Final Fight 2 on Sunday and it was a good experience! This was my third playthrough of the day and decided to use Carlos as my last character choice. Figured to see if I can pull off the 1CC as well as grabbing the rest of Carlos achievements for a scuffed successful run.
All the cheevos in the set were fair, though if you fail any of the bonus level ones, youd have to start again, which is especially bad for the second bonus stage as it is really tight and its halfway into the game. Failing that can be frustrating, but it didnt hinder the experience with the set all that much.
