The audio in this game is atrocious.

Mastered!

It's playable if you mute the game and put on your favorite mood music. Thanks for the cheevs on it though!

Is too easy
MasoodMatin 15 Jan 2024 16:22
Mastered! I think concentration is the most important factor for success in this game.
Riddle 27 Feb 2024 15:53
There should be an achievement for playing the game with the volume on
ResetAlpha 23 Jun 2024 07:36
This is supposedly a port of the arcade original, which is quite a funny joke. They might as well have been given entirely different names given the drastic difference in difficulty and in on-screen action. This port is the definition of child's play.

Thank you for the set.
Basnot 4 Sep 2024 08:47
'Till I played this game I thought Kirby's Adventure was the one breaking the NES but damn.. massive fps drops, disappearing sprites (specially your bullets), same 6 levels in loop. GBC version way better imo tho, and that's funny

Finally Mastered!!! I think this was one of the easiest games to beat on the NES. There are gaps between the plane shots that you can enter between. This game was difficult, but after I understood the secrets it became much easier. I beat it with 6 lives left.

Thanks for the set :) #AquiéBR

Mastered. This is a great set, which makes a very monotonous and mediocre game enjoyable.

I thought this game would never end=)

@Riddle Hard to enforce, but if there was a way, it would need to be on a loudspeaker at max volume!
Here's some lyrics to make it accessible to deaf people:
BEEP BEEP BEEBEEP BEEBEEBEEBEEBEEBEEP!
TCH TCHKCHTCHKCHTCHKCHTCH (BEEP)!
TCH TCHKCHTCHKCHTCHKCHTCH (BEEP)!
TCHTCH BEEP!
TCHTCH BEEP!

O PIOR JOGO DE NES QUE EU JA JOGUEI, jogo travado, gráficos de bosta, e a música foi feita pelo próprio diabo, a gameplay é uma bosta, Power UP de Dois aviãozinho merda, as conquistas Mais difíceis foram de sobreviver a esse jogo sem ficar surdo e cego.

This game is so tedious, and it's made worse by the fact that sometimes you just don't shoot anything out.

This game... is definitely something.
I mean, I think I don't have to say anything, if you play for even a few seconds you will understand the pain.
This game takes around an hour and a half to beat and the more you play the more glitches you end up encountering.
Anyways, don't play this game, play the sequel, it's much better.
