You're far less inclined to use the laser all the time now and the boss fights are much, much better. The game has certainly grown on me. It's still got a very indie look and feel and it doesn't really function as an arcade game but it's a decent 16bit explore-a-thon with a lot of character. Probably NG DEV's best game.

Did you try the new final boss fight yet? You should get a real kick out of it.

[SuperPang]

Not yet. Been playing arcade mode.

Did anyone figure out how the level select cheat works?
