August 2018 Game of the Month - Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse (SMS)
-
Here we go, my golden ticket.
Overall I thought the game was pretty fun, not as much as the genesis version or the remake, but still good. Some of the bosses are annoying, The chocolate bar is a rip off of the Yellow Devil from the Mega Man games. And the last two bosses (Dragon and Mizrabel) were especially annoying. Both revolve around throwing a projectile at them while dodging shit flying all over. The dragon can only be hit on his head, which makes aiming particularly difficult. And Mizrabel has these dots flying all over that take a heart each. One thing to mention; when throwing something, it will only fly when you are moving. If you are standing still (or jumping in one spot and throwing) it will drop right down, keep that in mind.
I also got all the "beat bosses with no damage" cheevos. They add nothing but were still fun to do. A lot of them popped at the wrong time though.

Honest question, how many of you actually use the art pack from my github? This goes for all the months so far.
I was thinking of not making the art packs anymore, and was instead of making this feature just that; a feature. No gimmicks.

Wow!! This month is going really fast!!
Wait until Friday, please. I'll get my golden ticket too!!

I have tried this game a couple times. I suck at it. Badly.

Yeah, I'll probably wait until the 1st or so to start voting.
The month is going so fast. In a week, I'll be a high school senior. I really wanted this summer to go slow so I could prolong the amount of time until I'll have to hear about school and college planning.

Same here. It's actually pretty difficult.

@obsidianspider I got to the tree boss in the woods stage. I cannot figure out how to beat him. Those leaves are brutal.
Also got to the chocolate bar boss in the candy stage and had a similar experience.

Eager to see what gets chosen for September. Hopefully it's something I can compete in. :)
-
@livefastcyyoung I've yet to decide, I might not pick something until saturday or sunday (September 1st and 2nd, respectively)
Busy with school stuff at the moment

Tadaaa!!
I will think about the next month game and post here soon ;)

[looks like I've posted my suggestion in the wrong thread, then I'm repeating it here]
My suggestion for September:
Tails Adventure (Game Gear) - it's a kind of Metroid game where the main character is Tails (yeah, that Sonic's partner).
I also suggest this achievement as a challenge, which is basically beat the game.

The next post will either be up today or tomorrow. I had an idea for a game to play, but I lost my copy and will probably never find it.
