Aack, if only I hadn't lost my saved game, I would've completed this game earlier.
Ahem, anyways, great game! I think this is the first non-puzzle PICO 8 game which has the longest play time. I had to complete this in single run to prevent losing save game. This game has metroidvania vibes but because it's missing one crucial element, I can't include it in my metroidvanias collection.
For game details, I'm not fond with first boss battle cause he's too unpredictable making it hard to hurt him, or I should say have him hurt. IMO it's better for him to try to jump over player most of the time and seldomly drop apple.
After getting Sooty, boss battles become more fun and balanced. It was great to defeat all of them (including the ones after The Conductor) by shooting them :D.Some of them prove to be a challenge especially that undead boss but I can manage ;).
Speaking of undead boss, I found bug in which I was told that I'm missing more pages while returning back AFTER defeating the boss.
There's another bug in which if player tries to walk left from top of station entrance in air ship station, player isn't blocked and dies.
Ah, that reminds me that rocket jumping with Tetsip was easier than with pogo rocket. Too bad that would make Bunko would cry. But she cried either way... oh well.
The free spirits part could be fun if there were more onigiris (just like in regular train levels). Refilling health during rematches was the only way to gain health there.
Alright, that's pretty long already! thanks for the great game :D, it was worth it playing it through in single sitting...well, single run.
