18 Jan 2014 5:03		Ho forget said how unlock mania? When During the title screen try hold A+B+C, finally press Start
18 Jan 2014 5:03		Have funny
18 Jan 2014 9:56		welllllll done
26 Oct 2014 20:18		The original game on the Genesis, miles better than that "thunder spirits" crap on the SNES.
9 Mar 2017 8:53		me either didn't count the 600.000 score achievement
12 Mar 2017 8:00		It's very frustrating didn't complete this game because a broken achievement :(
12 Mar 2017 8:44		The really problem is the leatherboard and the score counter
14 Mar 2017 8:38		600,000 is just an odd number to make an achievement for, since all game mem reads in hex=ffff/655350. I suggest it should have been a lower value like 500x; it can either be demoted or just remain as is with the 30 other players who have earned it.
8 Dec 2017 19:25		Hey all, I'm getting the "beat boss with only twinshot/no specials" despite using other weapons. Anybody else getting this ?
17 Apr 2018 3:14		Leaderboard is broken. The score does not apply if you beat the game.
8 Dec 2018 15:29		I had the same problem of twin shoot achievement
30 Dec 2018 3:47		Many broken cheevos, for example I got "Guardian" and "Cerberus" at the same time, just after beating Guardian. I got "Gargoyle" several minutes after his death...
30 Nov 2019 10:19		I reset after beating normal and set the difficulty to mania, which gave me the cheevo "real hero". Now I need to beat mania to have actually earned it...
