RFGen 2025 SNES Challenge

[CKsGallery]

Another rainy day, going to sink some major time into this challenge again today.
Killer instinct
This one was pretty difficult, had to lower the difficulty for quite awhile to practice combos. Finally was able to beat it on the normal difficulty, some of these fights were brutal.

Brutal paws of fury- and interesting fighter. I picked “foxy roxy” .  A sexy… fox… This one was rough, the concept is you learn new moves while fighting and gaining experience. The problem with that is the first 2 fights you literally only have punch and kick, and the cpu is TOUGH!. Toward the end you learn new moves but the move that works best (i learned this by getting my … handed to me by the mirror match against foxy roxy) is just getting within an arms reach of your opponent and just crouching and spamming kick. I got a few perfect matches from doing this. This game was getting maddening hard until i just spammed low kick for the rest of the game. That got me to the end credits.

Beat Power Moves
! You are Joe, the most generic karate man, on your way to greatness you will fight chun-li.. i mean Reayon, Warren the crack head, other generic fighters, to get to the boss, temu Haggar (final fight) … i actually had a lot of fun with this one. Its a one on one fighter but you are on a 3-d type stage, like a side scrolling beat em up where you can move all around the fighting area. It has rpg elements, after each fight you are awarded points that go toward your life bar, speed, power ect., so you get stronger over time. You get to choose who you want to fight next by looking at the other fighters stats. Pretty cool concept, i would play this one again.

Nice work CKsGallery!  I'm glad you're doing the fighters and beat-em-ups, they are my least favorite genres haha.

Completed Lufia 2 last night.  This one really surprised me, and should really be mentioned more among the top SNES RPGs.  Story is fairly generic but the gameplay is really solid with varied dungeons and balanced to eliminate grinding.  It was also nice that enemies appear in dungeons so you're not constantly bombarded with random battles.  There were a few glitches toward the end game but nothing that prevents completion.  Really enjoyed this one.

Also played some Super Bowling last night.  Counting this as completed since I got a "win" screen but there really isn't much to do in this one.  Two different types of bowling and a practice mode but there isn't any sort of tournament or progression modes.  I could see it being kinda fun playing with friends but otherwise its really basic.

I'm going to claim and start Chrono Trigger. I'd like a game that will take a while to get through.

Completed Terminator 2: Judgment Day last night. No screenshot since the game kept crashing with a black screen including during the ending before I got a picture 😭

This game was hard enough without the crashing but I did manage to get through it. Only reason I pushed through was because I had a lot of nostalgia for it from playing it on the Genesis as a kid. Like most ljn games it's clunky, hard and unforgiving.

Just saved Crono! Got a ways to go before I usually fight through the Black Omen and complete the game, but I'm probably 2/3rds complete.

Updated list.

Ok, all side quests complete and Lavos defeated! Chrono Trigger's done.

Beat The Adventures of Dr. Franken. Not a great platformer. Reminds me of the Dragon's Lair game I played, where the sprites initially look impressive because of their size, but then because of their size, you hardly have time to react before enemies hit you. For some reason, your main attacks use two buttons, one to attack toward the right side of the screen, the other for the opposite side. If you aren't paying attention, you may press the button for the wrong direction and take a hit that you probably shouldn't. There's no reason for it, either, since you really don't have occasions where enemies are attacking from both sides.
