Volgarr the Viking

So I recently this up, a 2D platformer that is quite fun and hard. One of the things that makes it so hard is that there are no checkpoints or saves, and if you quit the game you have to restart from lvl 1 next time you play.

I've started to become pretty efficient at the first level but I've yet to beat the boss.

Anyone else playing this? How far have you gotten?

I have this game too, and I've beaten it.
It's very challenging and rewarding, with a great art style and controls.

After you beat Volgarr the Viking, you feel like you can beat any game that dares to challenge you.

Then comes Battletoads for the NES and makes you cry.

Seems promising so giving it a try when i get a job.

This game is insanely hard
