Finally beat Adventure Island

Last Night
Adventure Island is one of those games I've picked up and put down more times than I can remember. Starting around 30 years ago, I remember renting this game, falling in love with it, and then quickly getting frustrated. Then a few weeks or months later, renting it again, loving the music, then realizing I wasn't going to beat it in a weekend.

Over the years, I've played it, even as I started to stream. But still... never got around to beating it.

Well, that all ended last night! I finally beat the boss! Sure, I used saves, but no other cheats. 8-3 was a slog. The end of 8-3 has this series of platforms that drop as soon as you land on them with some bats flying at you. Took me an hour or so to get past that.

A little anti-climactic, but well, it's done.

What's Next?
This means we get to move on to the next game, which I also started last night. Video is up for now on my Twitch site. Super Mario Odyssey. I'm already really enjoying it, and think it should be a good adventure for the stream.

Coming up, I'm thinking of putting CrossCode in the lineup. Maybe making it my first All-Day, First-Day play through of a game on the stream.
