I just got a trophy that reminded me I need to read more KODT... even here I'm reminded that I should be doing something else...

The final boss is strange because it seems really hard but if you know what you are doing it becomes a cakewalk. First off if you haven't figured it out the goal is to tackle the bombs it throws back at it in order to ground it, and then when it is on the ground attack it with your spikes to actually damage it. (If you are having trouble hitting it with a bomb I found that jumping to hit the bombs in the air made it a lot easier, but use whatever works for you.) The cakewalk piece is that the first thing it will always do after taking to the sky is throw more bombs. With a bit of luck you don't have to see it fire a bullet other than waiting for the first bomb.

Great game it reminded me a bit of the old nes metroid game. I enjoyed all the little secrets talking about the game you could find trying to find ways to climb out of the maps. Only thing that would be nice to have is being able to shoot in the air since some flyers can be a real pain sitting above you and shooting which i started just ignoring and running on after a while. Keep up the good work.

Great game, but there were a few annoyances. The game automatically pauses when focus is lost, which is fine, but doesn't unpause when focus is returned, which is particularly silly while in a mouse-driven menu. Unexpected easter eggs can be accidentally dismissed with no way to see them again. The trophy descriptions in the Ancestor Records are incomplete, with no way to review the text you see when you initially receive one (and which usually explains why you've received it). Finally, I found the game intermittently hiccupped, pausing for a second or two. The more entities (like projectiles) that were being created and destroyed, the more frequently it hiccupped. The strange thing is that this seems to have no correlation with either memory or CPU use; the game just takes a break.

I do hope that you create the sequal soon. I cannot fathom what it could be if you play off of the "Good" ending, though the other one, maybe.

@juggernaut5509: There is an upgrade in the game that allows you to run. While running you gain a sheild of sorts and start flashing blue. This allows you go through the yellow fields.
Interestingly the way the game is coded you and enemies have the same response to the yellow fields. So *they* can't pass until *you* start running. Not sure this should even be called a bug, but I found it to be amusing.

"Almost there...Yes! Finally! I made it to the last place, after passing dangerous enemies and acid filled pits... I finally made it! WAIT WHATS THAT??? THERE WAS A BACK DOOR TO THIS PLACE!!?!!"

annoying game cause every few seconds the screen that u would get if u paused kept coming up at the worst moments like when i'm just about to be killed

Amazing game. I loved the story line, the graphics, the playability, the puzzles, the combat, everything. I was even running around to find the little fun facts, and they didn't even affect the game. 5/5. I couldn't think of a way to improve the game even if I tried.

great game. Only flaw: Bad Sound Effects. Music was good, but the sound of shooting spines was enough for me to mute all the sfx.

Awesome game, haven't been this gripped in a while.
I've finished now tho and I'm bored...
How long till this expansion you promised? :p

"The trip was a long, violent roller-coaster ride through the atmosphere."
- It's an alien with no memory of what happened, and it somehow recalls the concept of a "roller-coaster" that is human made and obviously not of this time. I had to laugh.

I like the retro feel and awesome story. It draws you in. Also I like the little secret hidden at the snowy mountain top. I bet this game won that contest too, if it didn't, it should have. 5/5!!!

Damn, I was so busy downloading the soundtrack from the official site that I almost forgot to give the game 5 stars! Beat it for the good ending, I'm still curious for the bad one. This is a game I was playing for the actual game, and not just the damn badge. Amazing.

this game sucks
when was it made the 1960s

what does i tmean yellow forcefields can only be penetrated while running? does it mean you can only run through it or that you have to shoot while running, either way i tried both and neither worked

I really like this game, but it would be better if it didn't lag/stutter every couple of minutes. I'm using a pretty recent Core 2 Duo with 4GB RAM, latest Chrome 16 and Flash 11.1. My CPU usage isn't even high (rarely peaking at 50%) so not sure why this would happen.

I beat this game with the "good" ending and i never got the badges for completing the good ending, or for getting the double jump pwer up. it makes me sad

I loved this game! I found everything exept for 1 life. Rally clevel how some of the items were hidden and the story line was cool too. An AWEOSME game.

I was pretty sure that I was gonna miss the "statue" you need to activate to get the good ending, thank your for having the game remind and show me where it is. 4/5 cause there's too much backtracking after you get some upgrades.

@Goneguy That wasn't an issue with mine...perhaps get a better computer? Check for spyware/adware? Scan for virus'? Update FLASH? all of these things could be an issue for you. I suspect any number of those could be the issue seeing as I regularly check, update, scan, and make sure my computer's clean... and I have no problems. Oh, and I don't have a crappy computer either.. that could help

Alright, found everything, didn't get all in-game achieves but meh. The only thing that I didn't like, was the fact that I couldn't shoot while jumping ... many times those floating globes of pain kept firing from out of range and I couldn't shoot them down so I could properly attempt to explore for more secrets.

I haven't beaten the game yet due to getting tired, and the current chair that I'm using being uncomfortable, but from what I have played, the game is absolutely amazing. This game reminds me of some old school platformers that I played on the computer in my younger years, and that is definitely a good thing. Great job on the game, and I believe that my only recommendation that others have pointed out is the ability to fire while jumping; though that would make a certain boss battle too easy. Keep up the great work!
