I'd forgotten how much of a one life game this could be - lose the axe at certain points and you are stuffed !

Right, that's it. I don't care anymore. I've had enough. Wonderboy and his silly green haired girlfriend can go to hell for all I care. I no longer give a fig about their plight, them and their fluffy friends. What kind of freakish animal would lay eggs that contain hammers and skateboards for pity sakes? This game has invaded the inner most sanctuary of my mind - with it's twee music, colours and killer frogs. This is the best I'll ever score at it...I'm going for a lie down.

I'm a Tenacious D fan.

All week I've been thinking about writing some alternative lyrics, sort of turning it into a song about the game...

This game is so unfair! I killed the end of level baddie, then a necklace appeared, so I collect it from the platform it's on, and the platform drops me off the bottom of the screen. I kill the baddie again, and the necklace appears before the platform, so I get it and then stand around for a bit wondering how I can get to the goal. I decide I'll just have to die again, so I walk on the platform expecting it to drop, and it goes up this time :blink: Is it random or something? Does the game toss a coin and decide if you are worthy of continuing?

And what is the necklace for?

I eventually died when a cloud dropped me off the bottom of the screen on the next level, which is totally unfair!

Dammit. Made it up to 3-1 with all my lives intact, thought 'this is gonna be an awesome score' then promptly lost all my lives at the moving platforms bit :angry:

45/1 hour,(not as quick as a friends speed run)to complete the game early,as i missed a few of the dolls,and without them all ,you can't continue on to the extra stages.

I still prefer the sms version,with the little handbags you collect ,which take you to a bonus heart collecting stage.

And i luv the music :lol:

nice score m8 that aint gonna be beat and i agree music is ace :) well done LML but i got u beat player ;)

It was another game I would watch my peers play in the Arcades with amazement though - It has a lot of secrets ...

What makes it worst with the dropping platforms on World 2 , is that we're given a virtually perfectly fair World 1 ,where skill can get you out of any situation the game throws at you

Then again , it is an arcade game , and needs to receive a continuous flow of continues
