Completed Lords of Thunder
Thanks for the recommendation jperryss! I just completed Lords of Thunder!!
I decided to give it a try and for this one I had to install an emulator. I haven't run one in a good 10 years it seems like. I setup RetroArch and this is like a dream compared to what I remember. So I loaded up the SegaCD version of Lords of Thunder and gave it a whirl. Got beat up pretty bad and didn't think I'd likely pursue it enough to finish, but then I just started squeaking through levels and realized the bosses were a lot easier than I expected / thought at first. Then today I've got a cold and my drill broke so construction is on hold so I had time. Did pretty well through most of the game but blew it all and couldn't get past the big laser mini-boss thing. Finally, the Elixir got me past the balls'n'chains with enough health/elemental thingies to get past the laser. Then, again, the bosses weren't that bad*, though I only had one tick of health left. I was actually shocked to finish it because I took a beating on that last guy.
*Have I mentioned I suck at action games? So I kinda cheated and watched some videos for strategies. Plus, I read about the different suits because I really wasn't noticing much difference besides the blatantly obvious. The manual would have been nice to read.
I took a picture of the same scene as jperryss because it is awesome.
The emulator is so easy I gave Legend a brief try, too. We'll see how that goes.
