Tweety Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Rygar was a game I played a lot, and to my surprise, made it to the last level and won. But this was years ago.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Level42 Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 (edited) Cool videos......but uhmmmmmmm, did anyone tell you secretly that in Klax's diagonal waves you actually need to stack the tiles......diagonally..... :D Oh anduhhmmmmm another thing the cool guys do is not wait until the tiles slowly decent the path, but boost their speed by pushing DOWN on the D-pad :D Edited August 29, 2016 by Level42 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Level42 Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Really liked the JagBar video about Alien Vs. Predator. I never had a Jag nor was very interested in it BITD.....was an ST user at that time....so it's great to see an extensive video about this game. I'll keep watching 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Level42 Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Haha LOL......just take another drink from the Jag Bar, sit in the Lynx Lounge and read the manual.....then practice it a bit.....your scores will improve dramatically.....try get a 4 tile diagonal or even better....a 5 one....or......make a big X ( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadPricey Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 I totally agree about the damn OPTION buttons. Why didn't go with A,B and C buttons along the top and bottom? To be honest I don't think I've ever seen a 'lefty' play the Lynx by switching the controls. Isn't it the industry standard to use your left hand for the D-Pad. Never seen any kids playing games in the arcade stood on their head! Great review ?, never realised Lynx version was the only home version that scaled.

Level42 Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 (edited) The option buttons are a lot easier to hit on a Lynx 1 IMHO. On the Lynx II they are way too "hard" and "stiff"..... Great edition by the way, made me appreciate Pit fighter a tiny bit more Edited October 2, 2016 by Level42 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great edition by the way, made me appreciate Pit fighter a tiny bit more Im glad you mentioned that, its not that they are too far a way - I mean you can get used to it, but its a totally different feel. A and B buttons have a great feel to them while the option buttons are stiff and poppy. So not only is it in a weird place but its a different feel as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Level42 Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Yes and because of the softer, rubbery feel and same construction under the button on the Lynx 1 it simply feels better and easier.....although it's still not ideal of course. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+jeremiahjt Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 What did you mean when you said it was the only version with multi-player? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btbfilms76 Posted November 5, 2016 Author Share Posted November 5, 2016 What did you mean when you said it was the only version with multi-player? NES let you play with 2 players, 7800 2 players - Lynx version was 4 players plus a mode where you could play as the Snotterpillar hunting down everyone else.

So you meant more than 2 player multi-player. I thought maybe you did not realize there were 2 player versions on other systems, but I understand what you were getting at.

pixelperfect Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 (edited) A man of his word! Nice review, loved this game as a kid. There's not too many level-based exploration games like it, especially on the Lynx. I really wish I knew about Slime World as a kid..

I have a bunch of arcade ports to review then I'll switch gears and break down the side scrollers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
