Of course I beat the final boss and there's an absolutely abysmal finale, in which the already obnoxious jumping mechanics are pushed well beyond their very meager limit. This shit drops the game down at least one point, fucking stupid.

the idea is you exclusively play that game for 2 weeks until you master it and feel like a ninja

meanwhile (You) want to clear it in one playthrough and constantly reload savestates rather than getting gud

I didn't use save states, but I did beat it. The final boss is actually fine once I realized you could slide off the platform, for some reason you don't hit the blades on the ends when you do that. Fuck that final climb though.

>Is it a requirement than ninja games have terrible final bosses?
Shinobi 3's final boss is sick af and I still get hyped to this day when I fight him.

Shinobi arcade has a cool final boss as well which he uses various forms of ninjitsu for each of his phases.

And you have to beat him on one credit. There are no continues for the last level.

Chicago was the iToddler default font when macs were the industry standard in desktop publishing.
