#justbeatit Super Smash TV (SNES), a Robotron-style twin stick shooter. It's pretty tough and takes practice to get further each time. I got the pleasuredome ending, unlocking turbo mode with 2x speed, 2x lives, 2x continues and almost beat that second loop. @polykillpodcast.bsky.social

#justbeatit Flipnic, a weird unrealistic pinball game for PS2 with missions to complete to unlock the next table. I did not like the table design. Too many areas difficult to escape from and areas with weird physics. Pads its length by including mirrored table versions. @polykillpodcast.bsky.social

I love the handwritten puzzle notes!

#justbeatit Thunder Force III, my new favorite 16-bit shmup. Very memo-heavy and has some great FM tunes. On higher difficulties you lose your powerups on death but recovery is manageable. It took me several practice runs but I finally got the Mania difficulty 1cc. @polykillpodcast.bsky.social

Natsume Atari has filed a trademark for Shatterhand in Japan: chizai-watch.com/t/2025097921

Shatterhand is a 2D action game originally released for NES. The trademark might suggest a remake or sequel is in the works, a la Shadow of the Ninja Reborn or Pocky & Rocky Reshrined.
