Hooray another game so I can continue to avoid Double Dragon!

In DD's defense, at least the babe is worth fighting for. If I was Popeye, I'd let Brutus or the Sea Hag have Olive Oye, she is not my type of cartoon woman at all :lol

Come on Rob or someone else, help me out early - what the hell do you do on the 3rd stage? I'm collecting the letters but it's doing noting :confused: Am I supposed to be collecting them in order, or looking for a particular coloured letter? :confused:

 

I think this is probably a 4-way joystick game too, I just went off what the KLOV site said, doesn't seem to be any need for 8-way.

 

Apologies if updates are slow this weekend, away at Bribie Island for some fishing (if the wind buggers off) and the wireless internet coverage is not flash :(

It takes a fair few letters but I don't know exactly how many. I would post one more tip for that screen but it's too early to post tips (or perceived tips) in the first week. :p

 

Edit: Just checked and you have to collect 24 letters

Progressed further than I have ever done on this game in the past, used to run out of spinach on R2, now playing the patient game and finding it

easier to progress. In fact found out (by my own means of leaving the game running whilst I finished my Tasmanian cigarette ) if you do not move at the start of a level on your first man the only way to die is for the heart to sink,

and maybe R2 as well.

 

A platformer that does not follow a path:o it's a good game when you get into it, good ways to increase scores in a puzzle way. Would like to crack 100,000 on this one.
