My sister and I were OBSESSED with this game when we were kids. Need to go back and replay it.

This god damn game 😂
I never finished this one, and it is on the list.
I remember that it had lots of really obtuse collectibles, which are sometimes alluded to, and other times they are not.
Like in the first stage, if you use the crashed rocket’s engines to incinerate a sheep corpse, you get a special thing. I only knew about that because it was in a magazine.
Definitely have mixed feelings about going back to that one when I get a chance 😂
@OutofPrintArchive@mstdn.games Is the percentage totally independent of the X/5 scores above it? It looks like they add up to the score but 3+3+5+4=15 and 15x5=75

I have no idea.
Some do this while others don’t.
I’m not a fan of doing so as I’m of the belief that a game is more than the sum of its parts so making it a simply calculation just feels wrong to me.
@OutofPrintArchive@mstdn.games I also really think game devs that think of their game as a sum of its parts make much worse games than those who have a vision of the project as a whole.

My mind immediately went to modern day Ubisoft. 👀
