Ok I love this game have to do this challenge thanks Martin

[@TheRetroMartin]

@@gullpayne great stuff chap, I look forward to seeing your entry!

[@subliminalvcr]

Sorted. Cracking port this but lambasted by the UK gaming press (Mean Machines) back in the day for being too easy. Will be giving this a go.

[@TheRetroMartin]

See I always found it harder than Golden Axe but then I never got to play Alien Storm for any great length at any point. I've since gotten much better at it as a bit of practise last year got me quite far on this particular run. If I had it on easy I might be able to finish it

[@subliminalvcr]

@@TheRetroMartin I think it’s basically the same difficulty as Golden Axe out of the box. Mean Machines were too busy loving up the SNES when this game came out to give it the props it deserved. 😉😎

Nice one Martin I don't think I Ve played this For most 30 years 😂 I may give this a go But will do Your sonic 2 challenge first, Even if it is past the deadline As I put a video out saying IM gonna do it so kind of have to now😂

@@marcgoesblindgaming2076 hah, Alien Storm is quite short so should be easy to manage!

[@marcgoesblindgaming2076]

@@TheRetroMartin Short games are all I have time for these days ha ha

[@bundjohn]

Never played this one either but reminds me of the Power Rangers Movie game 😂

[@TheRetroMartin]

This one's a classic! The original arcade version actually had a nice Golden Axe reference in it. If I recall the GA Cast were sat at a burger van in a scene 😂

What happened to it that you guys could see? I've been at work all day and hadn't touched it since midday, I come home at 2am and find my account locked 😂 it's unlocked now but no idea what was going on there.
