too many points where knockback throws you into a portal to level select combined with impossibility to regain spears after returning to a level make this game unplayable.
@SkyCharger
Unplayable you say? Sounds like you just need to get good.
To quote Zelda,
"Instead of throwing yourself at enemies over and over to no avail"
Try throwing the spears. That will keep the big bads from punching you so hard your ancestors feel it.
Also, don't break crates unless you need to. You can hide behind them to stop enemies from punching you into portals.
That's why the crates are there in the first place.
My wife beat this game, and she is not good at it.
You have no excuse.
I experienced this where said crates did not even appear until after the problem areas to begin with. (and the throwing of spears in those areas made them lost forever)
There's really only a couple of enemies near a portal that can do that.
The orcs in the Forest Level (with crates)
The Skelenangal (flying skeleton) in Dungeon 1 (if you're jumping over the town portal)
Also, the game took me 13 minutes to speedrun.
If you ran out of spears and soft locked yourself, just restart.
I just watched an 11 year old beat my game in 40 minutes.
Trust me, it's playable.
This game does not use baby rules and hand-holding to gently guide you through it.
It's also not Dark Souls.
At this point, you're just saying that if you can't 1st try complete the game, then you want to cry about it and say it's unfair.
I have no sympathy for you, and neither does my game.
I have the feeling (but nothing more) that you are conflating first-running and single-running a game.
I can personally beat this game, zero deaths in about 20 minutes. Stop whining.
