HARDEST. BOSS. EVAAR. Probably. After 8976749836 more goes, I finally killed him! And, with his bubble popped, it was time to watch the credits roll… only… what’s this? I only rescued Patty or Tilly or Fluffy or Boris or whatever her name is. “This is not a true ending!” it says. I now need to do it again in two player mode! Or so I thought. I can actually let the GBA control Bobblen. So off I went to kill …

I’ve been playing this all evening, and after some real bitches of levels (73, 95 and 99 stand out), I finally made it to level 100. The boss. After 8752354523847 goes, I still can’t kill him. I know what to do – that bit is easy. I just can’t do it without dying. You can’t even discern how much “damage” he has left, which is a pain. Stupid game, smash smash smash.

Level 71. And stuck. I can’t figure out how to kill the baddies in the left and right vertical tubey bits. Shouldn’t have said it was easy! I had a go on “Old” mode for a bit then, and got to level 22 on one life, then lost them all. Pah.

Further playing == level 57. Still reasonably easy, though. And still no bosses. Did I imagine them in previous games or something?

Gah! After playing to level 28 or so last night, I find when I come to play it today that my game hasn’t saved. Rubbish. So, back to level 18. I worked my way through to level 40-ish this time. No bosses yet – I’m sure the original had them at levels 25, 50, 75 and 100.

Played single player “New” for a bit, and made it as far as level 28 or so. I then had a go on single-cart two-player with my wife. It’s fun for a while, but unfortunately you can only play the first 12 levels over and over again. And, being the first 12 levels, they’re not even difficult. Needless to say I racked up some 1,500,000 points before becoming bored rather than dying. It’s slightly bizarre that you only get one …

Played a bit of this today, but didn’t try very hard. Managed to get up to Level 18 on “New” mode. I was doing well until Level 14 or so, without losing any lives, then it all went to pot. The theme tune is now drummed into my head. Great.
