After a week of attempts, I finally nailed the 2 loop 1CC of PC-88 GnG last night! Pretty faithful port in many ways but the scrolling and choppiness was real rough. And no way to gain extra lives made it pretty spicy. THIS STORY IS HAPPY END
Excited to tear into the Amiga port today 💀💀💀

Ending screen for DOS Ghosts n Goblins
ok the DOS GnG was pretty hilarious! absolute dumpster fire of a port (I say that lovingly)
I think I'll go back and try to beat Advanced difficulty next week, maybe even a proper speed run attempt or two, and then onto the PC-88 port.
also WTF A NEW CASTLEVANIA GAME WAS ANNOUNCEDskadfjlskadfjsdfk

Amstrad CPC Ghosts n Goblins is done! Only 3 levels, but the one hit deaths pushed this to the top spot for most deaths in the GnG Challenge so far.
Looking at a fanmade remake for Amstrad GX4000 next, and then it's time for DOS 💀

GnG on ZX Spectrum. It looked fun watching @bursterror.bsky.social suffer thru it. I found the spawns are consistent from a full reset, so I came up with my route and it's fairly easy to get to the Arremers. Then you just need a reasonable pattern from them. 🗡️ www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jEa...

ZX Spectrum GnG is DONE! I have made the ULTIMATE SACRIFICE by launching my battered and beaten bones at Prin Prin!
This one is at the top of the total deaths leaderboard in the series so far, Amstrad port is next and already gunning to take that spot I think though 💀
lol I had one of these last week, while holding a teapot that went flying (luckily empty)

3 GnG more games done! Sort of.
Played thru two great recent fan made remakes for C64 and C4+, but the official C16 version was determined unbeatable, even with only two levels. The Unicorns in level two have way too much health to kill them before getting stomped on. 🦄
ZX Spectrum next!
GnG game #3 down! The C64 port was a clonky good time. Against better judgment I am gonna add the other C64 2015 remake to the list also, it looks pretty great.
