Thanks... Actually, after trying and dying several times the night prior to this post, I read the news last night, got fired up, turned on the game and in one try beat Widow. I guess I just needed some rest and to vent. 🤪

Don't dare to challenge people with "obstacles" or "enemies." People could get a fit over jumping a hole.

And people ask why people gatekeep those games? Guess not every game is made for everyone, huh?

Or is the usual (slow) approval process not being applied here?

I died and he didn’t come back. A quick search shows I’m not the only one. Was really hoping this would be fixed soon but no mention of it in the notes… 😓

You'll reset back at the last bench you passed but without the frustration of having to retrieve your rosaries. I've gotten into the habit of doing this whenever I complete any taxing challenge, because I don't want to have to redo anything tough due to a crash.

It happened twice. I managed to win, but that was an issue for sure.

Earlier on, the game was prone to crashing to the desktop. Once it happened to me just after winning a particularly hard enemy gauntlet and I had to redo it. It was frustrating, but I enjoyed playing the game so much I got over it quickly.

Patching things is always good to see.

It's easy enough already. Hardest boss for me so far is [spoiler]Moorwing[/spoiler].
Beat it in maybe 10 tries and for comparison the hardest boss for me in HK was [spoiler]Broken Vessel[/spoiler]. Maybe 50-60 tries to beat.

But unlike in the NES era, we can now update games easily.

The Donkey Kong Country games each have like three or four different carts out there with different revisions. Speedruns are categorized by version because glitches found in the earlier versions are fixed in later productions.

Needed to reset the game to get out of it.

Most enemies and bosses have a lot of mobility and some can go through walls so I suppose they can get stuck under certain circumstances. Still it's good to know they're fixing these even if it's difficult to find said bugs.
(How many bug jokes could be done Holy cow)
