It doesn't help that all those damn swordsmen and whatnot keep spawning to your right and left. <br /><br />If you've got the shield, it helps a lot and you can pick up a new one towards the end of the stage.<br /><br />Also, watch out for all those damn fishmen as you climb up the tower. It's easier to just keep climbing up than fighting them....<br /><br />Matthew St. Cyrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07870183182967553900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5567207519106782296.post-10757032253612399632013-05-18T15:55:09.381-05:002013-05-18T15:55:09.381-05:00The red guys in the bird's nests who shoots bu...The red guys in the bird's nests who shoots bullet keep killing me on Stage 6.8bitcityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07962550332186044964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5567207519106782296.post-88891848203271066322013-05-18T14:30:57.096-05:002013-05-18T14:30:57.096-05:00I had Karnov when I was a kid too....but I had it ...I had Karnov when I was a kid too....but I had it on the Commodore 64. I managed to get to the diving stage, but I couldn't get any further because the disk was corrupted. <br /><br />Later I got the NES version and finally beat it. This game has long been one of my all time favorites! I actually just played it through not too long ago!Matthew St. Cyrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07870183182967553900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5567207519106782296.post-54075894245370933232013-05-17T11:28:37.307-05:002013-05-17T11:28:37.307-05:00I thought you fell in!

That was probably the first arcade game I had ever 'beaten', right down to the surprise showdown with my buddy who was playing it with me at the end. Double Dragons 1 & 2 for the NES also got a ton of play time out of me.Chalgyrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10879608925209948366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5567207519106782296.post-34342149131407333592013-05-16T12:15:10.280-05:002013-05-16T12:15:10.280-05:00Apparently in the Japanese version he's a bad ...Apparently in the Japanese version he's a bad guy sent back to Earth to answer for his sins. So that kinda explains why they might have him as a boss. Or just for fun, in the way that the Dragon Twins are a boss in River City Ransom.<br /><br />8bitcityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07962550332186044964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5567207519106782296.post-89576396990990200252013-05-16T07:57:23.248-05:002013-05-16T07:57:23.248-05:00There's an oldie.

Never bought the game - just a weekend rental, but I had fun with it.Chalgyrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10879608925209948366noreply@blogger.com
