@batterpunts ooOOOHH BOY :D :D :D :D

SOoooooooo

One of my favourite games on the Megadrive/Genesis, and in general, is Gunstar Heroes by Treasure.

It's a Contra-esque run and gun platform/shooter with lots of juicy explosions, bright colours, BIG weapons, lots of action and a great soundtrack, with a unique weapon combination system. In it, there is a boss you face twice, called Timeron - first in a standard gameplay section, and the last in a side scrolling shmup level.

@batterpunts Timeron's whole gimmick is that it uses time manipulation to keep repositioning its bullets it fires at you in different places to fill the screen with hecka bullets and keep you dodging around.

In the second fight, you can defeat it with just a couple of shots. It's literally no challenge. HOWEVER, if you manage to survive for 100 minutes (yep, 1 hour and 40 minutes! D: ) without killing it, Timeron accepts defeat, self destructs and you get a secret message!

@batterpunts (basically Satori is a buddhist term for enlightenment or awakening, so the message basically is saying that you're so good at dodging bullets clearly you have ascended beyond mortal enlightenment )
