mbd39 | 2,020 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 It took me only a few minutes to get participation. I expected much worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had this feeling that participation should be much higher than that, but still went in light with it. Anyway, you will love the ruleset I have in store for Klax.

I finally got it loaded onto the flash cart last night. Got to participation pretty quick, but not much further. Even doing a quick watch of gloves video, Im not sure what he is doing to score so damn high. And Im not sure I have the patience for this one to find out. Im sure part of the problem is not jumping enough, but damn. The verticle shooter concept is really cool, but this game seems really rough to me. Spoiled by pocky and rocky maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I wrong there? Or is like pocky and rocky that you want to pick up the same powerup over and over because picking up a different one resets you back to no upgrade essentially?

I picked up everything cuz I'm a keener. The points are in the diamonds, and I'm pretty sure only taking damage resets their value, or getting enough for a free life. I don't get hit much and I pick up all the diamonds, so whether taking damage or not impacts the points I'm not sure. But that's the best advice I can give. There's three tiers to this game, really. 1) be generally good at dodging things 2) pick up the diamonds, and don't get hit 3) learn where the hidden power up's are, especially flight and Macho Riki You can get by with 1. You can get a big score with 1 and 2. Do all 3 and you're laughin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbd39 | 2,020 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 I figured out the diamond thing on my own when I noticed my score shooting up. I hate how you have to hold the jump button to fly and releasing it once will make you lose it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be very deliberate about it. Controls are Loosey-Goosey which is part of what makes it so much fun once you get the feel. In my direct experience there is only one functional flaw in this game. If anyone can point it out (not counting Gloves), I'll stand up and salute you, most heartily. Not being able to pick up items while flying? I hate that.

0xDEAFC0DE | 1,277 Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 7330 Finally beat Battle of Olympus (side note: amazing game) so I could put my flash cart back in and get a participation score in this trash. I kid, it's just because it's really a shooter which I don't care for. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that's the right game. I liked Zelda 2 as well though. I really like games that have an element of exploration to them and this had the perfect balance of not being too linear nor being too "how was I supposed to figure that out". It has some interesting mechanics in it as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
