	MGNS8M 21 Mar 2017 15:42 Set is finished, hopefully things work alright. I tested things in one-run, so the main thing to worry about would be how things are affected by File Cabinet, but I think it should be fine.
	21 Mar 2017 16:12 Russian Roulette (5) pops when demo runs.Thanks for the set MGNS8M!
	MGNS8M 21 Mar 2017 17:01 Weird, I can't replicate it in RAPCE with my "converted" bad-rom, and I can't replicate it in RetroArch with Quick-Beetle-PCE and the "correct" version of the game.
	MGNS8M 22 Mar 2017 20:07 Well, I still can't replicate it, but I went ahead and fixed a problem with Guilty Gear, and added a new Requirement for Russian Roulette. Hopefully that fixes it.
	danichini 26 Mar 2017 04:26 thanks for the achievements MGNS8M
	edumagatsu 5 May 2017 00:31 Thanks again!
	Juliushuber 22 Oct 2020 18:31 Mastered :) Great set for a great game! I recommend making a seperate file right before leaving for the desert so you can re-fight Mummy dragon for the no damage & collect money after boss achievements.
	NewWizKid 10 Nov 2021 05:57 Surprisingly fun.
	WanderingHeiho 30 Dec 2021 22:16 Mastered! Overall a fun game and set, provided you can get past the slightly slippery controls. Save the second boss (Mummy Dragon) for damageless and the third boss (Zombie Dragon) for DRAGON DANCE.
