Ian very kindly hooked me up with a copy of his new game and I was delighted to get it in the post today so I decided to get straight into it . It's all their from the first game , the old enemies , the bike , castles etc and it's really challenging in places , you really got to be on point with your jumps and I found one of the underwater levels particularly tough . I think I also found a secret level .
The end boss was great , luckily I still had some bonus items or I think he would have finished me , but I powered through , defeated Banshi and saved Aries and finished with a score of 66,000 ,
Thanks to all in involved in the making of this game , was a great effort , It's great to have it in my collection .

Glad you liked the game I've never really considered going for a high score on this game or the original. Respawning enemies on the castle levels and no timer means to get the best score would involve hours of point-farming, which isn't much fun or much of a challenge.

Not had chance to play it through yet but I will in the near future. I had to really think of where to put the game on my shelf but in the end I opted for it to go with the other 4 Alex Kidd games (thats how good it looks!). The picture filled a nice gap once framed to Cheers

Yeah that's right I hadn't even thought on the spawning , my score is incredibly beatable , I basically follow the path of least resistance , avoiding enemies when possible , I don't even like punching those question boxes in case a ghost gets me . I don't like to use continues so until I get used to the game I just focus on passing levels and if I beat my score then great . I have played through it again and got beat on the final boss , I noticed second time that you can avoid the nasty underwater section with loads of spikes , it's the same in the original game on the final castle if you still got the cane you can avoid it , thought that was cool . I will likely give it another blast over the weekend , my new favourite accessory is my modded controller with pause button , great for this game .
