Thanks, I really appreciate that!

Thanks, I appreciate the feedback!

Hey all, I think this group might really enjoy this! It was a lot of fun to make. I'm working to get my YouTube channel off the ground so if you dig it, please consider giving me a follow. I have some of the earliest childhood memories playing this game and I always thought the password screen music had a cool mysterious vibe like your about to embark on an epic adventure. I plan to do more NES covers here and there. Been thinking Paperboy might be next...that bass line is funky!

Finished the game last night! Cliffs took me embarrassingly long to figure out. I actually forgot where the M.I.D was and that I had already found it much earlier. Man, what a game though! This goes up there as one of my favorites of any NES game! It gives you a completion rate at the end. Apparently I only found 85% of the secrets but explored 100% of the map.

Nice! I've made it down to 7%. Only area I need to finish is The Cliffs (still no idea what to do there) and Rolt (and any other bosses). I'm going to try to finish it tonight if I can. The island took me a good while to figure out how to enter the color codes. I actually figured out the Fields first. I think because I was really struggling to understand how to enter the color codes initially. But yeah, this game is pretty amazing! I'm hoping it starts getting more recognition because if it were released in the heyday of the NES, it would no doubt be regarded as one of the best. I don't know the last time I've spent as many hours on a single NES game and been this hooked!

Thanks for the reply Ian! I had gathered every weapon already and actually got a little farther on my own after posting that. You still helped me though. The thing I was not understanding was that the 3 colors on the M.I.D correlated to anything...I was trying to input the letters of each color in morse code, ie. R for red, B for blue, etc and totally confused! I'm down to 39% static now. I think the cliffs is the next big mystery to solve for me. It's gotta be something with the little colored duwagos that peek through the cave doors. I'm happy to try to help if you get stuck too.

I've made pretty steady progress on it and have sunk a decent number of hours in at this point but I've hit a wall where I cannot figure out the next step...I'm at the point where I'll pop the game in and just wander for an hour without figuring anything new out. I'm down to 68% static with radio & morse code done at 8 of 9 locations. I feel like I need to do something with the color codes or A.R.K codes but no idea what the next step is there. Also haven't made it to the island yet. Can anyone throw me a hint?

Thanks everyone! I was pretty bummed to see what happened to NA but this forum seems like a pretty seamless continuation.

Hey all! I was a member on nintendoage for about 8 years although I never posted a ton on there (I’ve kept the same name). I mainly hung around the homebrew forum over there. Anything like that here? I like to stay up to date with new NES homebrews and support that community when I can.
