Kinda cool that he sent it out personally! I didn't have any real dialogue with him other than some NintendoAge private messages (which are long gone). All we talked about on NA was his overall concern on the best method for selling the game to the NA users (and others in the US). If I remember right his English was good, but not great, understandably. He seemed kinda overwhelmed with the whole process of getting the copies distributed. Given the circumstances, it's wild to think these even made it to the US. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He came back to NA a few years after Star Keeper was released to share some music files from the game and mentioned that he was working on another game. I don't think he posted again on NA after that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plasma Man | 35 Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Beat it again today, my third time since owning it. Never had to do any life farming. It is very beatable just relying on the unlimited continues. Only important trick to the whole game is on world 8 wave 2 there is a new enemy called the dark master. He is the only enemy in the entire game that has a different item drop rate to my knowledge. He drops items 100% of the time. So you can skip all the other enemies and only kill him to farm items. He also has one of the most annoying attacks, acid rain. It is imperative that you kill him first before he initiates his attack. I can't be the only one who has beat this fantastic game, come on. I challenge someone to post a picture of the end screen. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will try to attempt a replay sometime again. But Congrats on beating this awesome game bro! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanooki | 4,933 Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 @zxdplay Thanks for showing up. I stayed out of this thread because of the mystique around the game and the fall out it caused on the after market. I very much would like to play it some day. Will you try and sell the original again too? I have a few other projects on this level I own as I mostly do not buy homebrew, but the quality here I feel crosses that barrier into more commercial quality which says a lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
