things I'm picking up forgotten land: return to dreamland DX: ego is the enemy BDSP: stuff happens but we just need to roll with the punches KSA: forge your own path in life, and keep your friends close but a tad sad that spider only got like a minute in the spotlight cuz it's very good for running around levels, but a few pro strats that you could have used where mixing stuff with ice to boost the damage on larger bosses (or bluster bombing) and fire for smaller bosses and you could have used chef kawasaki helper as a healer.

[@DonShnack]

Forgotten Land is a simple every ability has value I’d say. And yeah I’m pretty dicks at Star allies lol I haven’t touched the game in years but I think that made for a more interesting experience. Really love this comment tho, warms my heart when people take note of the lil themes I try and sprinkle in

[@kirbydude1030]

​@DonShnack , another kirby game you could nuzlocke is kirby fighters 2, and the way I could work is that every time you beat a chapter you get 5 new copy abilities to use, the entire purpose of the nuzlocke is for you to beat the last chapter. "The partners who broke the heavens" or you could do one of the 3ds games,

[@JimmyBrown-po3io]

Never thought a man named Don playing a silly Kirby game in nuzlocke mode could make such a godly story, I deadass cried. Great job Don.

[@jaxpool155]

these kirblockes are always a wild time, the lore goes places i never expect, and the editing choices are perfect. no notes, standing ovation

I like that every character is so accepting of death. They joined the battle knowing what would probably happen and were ready for it when their time came. Except maybe the sweepy one, they didn’t seem too pleased about it.

38:10 bonkers taking the hit for you was actually epic. Bonkers can tank many hits before he's at risk of losing his life, but Kirby can get an ability knocked out of him in a single hit especially from grabs it seems, so bonkers jumping in to get himself grabbed instead of you might have very well saved cutter. Also, the storytelling with these sprites is awesome, I want more, MUCH more... So keep it up! 😁 👍

@@RinZDR it’s a song from Super Paper Mario, in it the main character is evil because his father “murdered” his girlfriend who he loved dearly, the song was played when a few times but it is most remembered in the end when we see that the bad guy and his restored girlfriend get to live happily ever after in a different world.

Never heard of this channel before, video title interested me so I clicked on it, and after watching I wholeheartedly think this is one of the best vids I've ever seen on KZbin. Editing was great, fun commentary in the gameplay sections, and I absolutely adore the narrative sprite bits; ya got me invested as soon as the one after the Whispy fight played. Kinda wish more Kirby games had partners like this one does so that this Nuzlocke idea could be done in more of the games. Here's hoping it comes back in the next Kirby game to come out, only without the Friend Wheel or something similar to it.

[@DonShnack]

Really appreciate this comment. Truly it means the world. And lucky for you, this is part 5 in an on going nuzlocke series so I already got other vids like this one ;)
