Re: Echidna Wars
The deal I have is thaThe deal I have is that enemies can usually see and approach you longer than your actual firing range, on top of the fact they will rush you anyway after a single hit. And actually having them in a way that you can immediately start firing out them while outside of their range is rare, as the ground is jagged, so you're often jumping and then they're after you before you hit the ground. Or their under you, which I still have no idea how you're supposed to hit them. I've tried to jump OVER them, but they seem to anticipate that and I've rarely been able to get a perfect jump over the lamia, which I don't think much matters anyway, considering how much faster she moves. And because they move so fast and the screen is so small, you don't really have much opportunity to hit them and then back up and hit them again, as you have nowhere to go, and they're much faster, which is usually outside the norm in these types of games for this very reason. I don't think I've gotten past many a lamia without getting hit. Not to mention the fact if you ever find a place to backup to, this works on the megaman rules of spawning enemies, so the ones you just drew out to kill are back again the second you continue.
I finished all the stages, it's not impossible, and the constant continues make it easy, but that's supplemental to the gameplay.
*Edit* It seems level 1-3 is just really easy to me for some reason though. I've just been powerleveling my characters, after I realized you lose ALL your levels on one character when they die.
