WHAT HAPPENED TO THE FINAL BOSS?!
As nostalgic as this game is to me, I don`t remember what it had such a difficult final boss.
As for other gameplay, I never liked the "if you get hit you become even weaker" trope, even though many of my nostalgic games do have it. It`s a very unforgiving mechanic.
Graphic upgrade is solid, although it`s sad that the background haven`t got any updates. But it`s not my biggest concern with the remake so whatever.
As for the bugs, sometimes the pause menu doesn`t want to go, which makes fighting really annoying.
Also, the second ship supposed to have hearts on it`s wings, isn`t it?
