Best of luck, Kefit. Anyways, here's my little achievement earned after taking way too long.
A game I wanted to play quite a while back, but stopped because of annoyances. And annoyances still aplenty, even after I developed some skill. Hit boxes are way too big on both the Kid and the obstacles, plus there's so much Boshy going on, from the unnecessary shaking screens, flashing lights and even the Boshy bosses. Worst of all, Influka included my immortal nemesis, Solgryn, and made his defeat a requirement to reach the final boss, which was the whole reason I put up with the rest of the game! Thankfully there's autofire which makes the bosses go down pretty quick (after figuring out the pattern after dozens of deaths).
However, I still had some fun. Some of the bosses were neat, the music selection was nice, and I still got a kick from taking on Influka someplace other than K2. Although with K2 the attack sequence is the same, whereas with this game its random, so you either git gud or git lucky.
So now that's three games where I've beaten Solgryn: Boshy, K2, and now Time Machine. Thrice I stand triumphant over the accursed oatmeal! And now I'm gonna play short, easy games until I get over this burnout. I just don't have the stamina for adventure titles these days XP
