Ive been attempting to beat the Sega Ages release of Alex Kidd 1 on the Switch. For such an early platformer the final castle is far too masocore for its own good. A lot of “Ah, what? Come on.” has been said with each new bit of progression. Every aspect of the game is loaded with quirks, which as a whole I feel work for me even if its frustrating at times. They certainly weren’t the only ones throwing a lot of paint at the wall to try and compete with Super Mario Bros.
