definitely not going to have time to finish this one, but it was fun playing a couple of levels and this was a good pick IMO. kind of feeling a lot of pressure to pick something good for when my turn comes up.

also this. it created the beat em up genre. the frustrating parts of it are in every beat em up and run n gun for like two years after it came out, it was way ahead of its time.

That looks like a fun challenge. I always wondered what the oldest game was where you could be a pacifist, and the oldest one where it's intentionally designed that way
