I played some more Bunbun 2 today, which I puts me at 10.5 exits completed. if I'm not mistaken. The good news is that the game actually did save my checkpoint last night, despite how it seemed. I had forgotten, but at the start they tell you that you have to die once for the checkpoint to be restored - and wouldn't you know it, it's true! I also figured out that weird castle section, so that's nice. The bad news is that I'm not super enjoying this hack so far. It's good overall, and there hasn't been much that has really bugged me about it, but there's something about the flow in the levels that doesn't really hit the happy spot in my brain. It does not feel, as they say, sick as hell. I'll probably see it through, since I'm making progress at a steady pace and the hack isn't super long. But the levels are just hard enough that I can't complete them quickly, yet there's nothing happening on screen that makes me feel like I'm really accomplishing much. Dunno, it's hard to explain these things. Hopefully I'll hit on some levels that I enjoy more in the back half - I just got to one with a bunch of Banzai Bills that has been satisfying so far.
BTW, I was watching Superben play Invictus today, since he's trying to get back into running that game. He got stuck on the bullet phase of the Kamek fight, so I linked him lincoln's excellent gif - with proper credit, of course - and he used that to beat Kamek! He says he isn't going for WR on this one, but we'll just see about that.
