That's just annoying. I managed to go down and across, only to be killed by the guy kicking me or the thing falling before I could go anywhere. Don't know why someone would take time to make something like that...not even fun

I spotted this in the topic of the #shmup-dev IRC channel, it is difficult. I managed to kill the teddy by shooting your little things at him and walking under him as he jumps part of the way side to side, but then I got stuck.

I got to the part where you can either take the fall or go ontop of that floating guy, but I figured going past the ninja again wasn't worth the effort so I gave up.

It is not that difficult. The badly programmed collision and some impossible guessings are the problem. The game looks so cool

I think it is literally impossible. I found 5 possible ways to go, all of which end in a seemingly impossible obstacle to cross.

The furthest I got is up to that lion thing (pretty impossible) which fires stuff at you. The most annoying bit is just after the start where you go down and that ninja guy tries to kick you, I just don't understand how it works

I can't beat the hamster either

And why aren't there any checkpoints?

edit: It's because the damn game likes to annoy you, that's why.

Strange, I can get past the boot that comes up, but not the one that comes down. And what exactly does F do?

Google around for a bit and you will find plenty of youtube videos showing you how to play. It's one very strange game.

Boo!

a slightly easier game(or at least it seems..)

btw just found out that if you hold down X for about 5 seconds then it releases a slighty smaller bullet that is appearntly more powerful..

To get by the boot that comes down, just clear the boot coming up then turn back right and pass through it you will fall to the screen below. stay to the left to avoid the guy that tries to kick you then go hard right and try to land on the | figure not the boxes (this can take alot of tries). Jump off the screen to the right there will be three platforms, the first 2 fall as you jump on them so be quick the last one goes up to smash you into the ceiling so walk off it. when you jump off the screen to the right there will be some boxes to jump on off the right again and my best bet is a floating cloud that carries you to the next screen. This is as far as I have gotten.

I have been able to kill the teddy bear pretty easy but have not found anywhere else to go. If you can lans just before the ledge after the first boot you can try to jump back out of the way of the falling boot, if you do you can climb up the chain a few screen then get to some mountain type things, you can go across these for a bit but then there is a point where spikes start to pop up from the floor, that is as far as I have gone in that direction.

As for F I have no idea what the hell that is supposed to be.

Ah! I thought of that, but I didn't bother to try it as I didn't think it would work.

Edit: Ouch. Guile flash kicked me.

Yeah that was a hell of surprise to me the first time as well.

Another thing I have found is that if you need to make quick multiple jumps is to hold the jump key down.

I do that but I jump into the big boot and it kills me. How do you avoid this?

I can't get past that 2nd spike thing that drops. I don't stop pressing forward yet I can never get far enough past it. Impossible rubbish!
