GAME 2 … The Rescue …

 

 

Oooh look - I'm 14th from 11 years ago.

 

Can't see that lasting :)

Forgotten where some of the letters / dolls are.

I remember this from a few MGLs ago - I'm planning to still be lousy ..

By my standards pretty bloody ordinary but considering the alcohol consumption involved it's better than my 2 thirds pissed score at Netherworld. My mission (and I do accept it) is to at least make Mameshane earn his 100 points on this game. To be realistic I'm probably aiming for 99 points based on recent performances but I've got the next 2 weeks off work so let's see what happens.

 

Bring it on :062:

103,460 I can do much better

Love this game :)

 

Wonder Boy DRINKABILITY rating

 

Breaks between rounds to have a drink = perfect

 

Playability after a couple = OK but I kept being too greedy with the fruit and dying (yuck grog and fruit)

 

Overall DRINKABILITY rating 3.5 out of 5

Overall DRINKABILITY rating 5 out of 5

 

 

Defender DRINKABILITY rating

 

Breaks between rounds to have a drink = Bullshit if you try to grab a quick sip you will probably die 0 out of 5

 

Playability after a few = Rubbish, even after two drinks I don't play as well

 

Overall DRINKABILITY rating 1 out of 5

 

(Gave it one point as sometimes I still want to play it after a drink even if I know I won't play well)

427,180 - lots of silly boozy deaths...

 

I had my first game of this in a long time last weekend at a BBQ at my sisters place. It's fun but I'm not good at it. Another game I played on the C64 but never in the arcade. I tried the arcade only once BITD and found I didn't like the controls as I was use to the C64 method which only had one button so jump was up on the joystick.

Amazing what a difference sobriety makes. :rolleyes

 

Still forgetting where some things are and dying stupidly

That’s a great score on these settings Rob. I’m hoping to crack

What are the differences between Easy and Hard?

 

I'm guessing faster energy usage and that you have to hit the end bosses more? is that right? are there any more differences?

Those snakes only pop up when you get right upto them on HARD, this makes a pretty big difference on easy you already would of picked off the snake earlier. I was also losing a few lives on the Bosses last time we played, not exactly sure if they are any harder but they seemed to be.

The things i have noticed is between easy and hard.

 

Snakes pop up way later. The bees move faster and in slightly broader strokes. The bosses fireball patterns are faster. if the health drops faster it must not be a massive increase as i havent been able to tell yet.
