	ZBR 5 Dec 2017 22:00 Thanks so much for this set. Most fun I've had on RA in a while. I hope you make a set for Legendary Axe II as well!
	russolini77 12 Dec 2017 06:06 Great set, looking forward to more like this - about time someone paid much needed attention to the PCE/TG-16 library of games!
	ENZYME1 12 Dec 2017 19:32 This game and Legendary Axe II was previously on my development list. Never got around to it due to higher prioritized titles, and an emulator that needed some butts to be kicked around to get it to work. But glad to see it go up finally.
	KingS1zzle 19 Sep 2023 01:32 Fucking rope jumping, the killer of all runs.
