Warning: Collision maps work the best they can for all the pits and platforms within the Maker's limitations, but may still cause problems if you try to force enemies back down a platform or over a pit that is no longer on screen. Failsafe measures have been taken, by moving the camera and even in one case adding a walkable line through what should be impassable to reach an area enemies may get 'stuck' in, but they don't stop the issues from happening if you make them happen.Also just in case you fuck up getting off the bird in Golden Axe 1 without fighting the skeletons...
Push up against the top left of the platform until you stop, don't run or you'll probably miss it.
Jump and you'll land on the hidden platform. Walk left, then push up until you stop.
Jump and you're back on the bird.
So this turned out so awesome it completely side-tracked me from Adam's Story when I first made it.
Features & Upgrades-Stage collision designed to incorporate Golden Axe's large steps and pits for you to jump up and over, so levels no longer need to be flat and boring.-Every campaign stage from the Golden Axe trilogy for MegaDrive
-Duel Modes from Golden Axe 1 and 2 included, and VS Mode from Golden Axe 3 incorporated as a bonus stage after the Good Ending.-Campfire Bonus Stages!
-Thieves now reward high scores, relative to difficulty (high difficulty high reward). Green Thieves give you the biggest money, so even if you get a candy you'll be one step closer to an extra life. When playing co-op try to kill them before the other player so you get all the points!-Murphy is Magic... he is available everywhere aside from Campfire Stages
-Beat Golden Rage 1 and you can carry on to Golden Rage 2, OR get a head start in Golden Rage 3
-Beat any route with a Good End and continue without resetting your lives or score. This way you can use Bomberlink's new savegame feature to make an endless playthrough!-Fully functional Golden Axe 3 routes
-6 Endings
-Duel Mode 7th Ending-It takes
more than 6 full playthroughs to find every single scene.
-Ignore the story and cross over between the first two and the third game, mixing up the stages, if you want... there are only a couple of opportunities for this, but they definitely can make things interesting and further increase replayability
-Faithful to the originals, Easy Mode cannot get a good ending
-Each game is tougher - Golden Rage 1 is short and simple, Golden Rage 2 is well balanced in time and difficulty, while Golden Rage 3 is an hour long and offers the most challenge.
-Golden Rage 3 rebalanced by replacing most instances of one particular enemy. This one enemy change makes a huge difference going from hellishly annoying to enjoyably difficult.Recommended CharactersGolden Rage 1/2: Axel (Ax), Blaze (Tyris), or Zan (Gillius)
Golden Rage 3: Adam (Kain), Skate (Chronos), Rudra (Sarah), or Max (Kragger)
Shiva is also an option for Golden Rage 3, since he's playing Eve (the Griffon King), who was playable in Battle Mode
How to Get a Good EndingIn any Route: Don't play Easy Mode
In Golden Rage 3 specifically, just do any one of the following...
...free 3 'heroes' from their curse (this means taking 3 particular stages from the lower route)
...play on Very Hard or Mania (this more than proves your 'skill' to unlock the good ending like in the original)
...after beating Golden Rage 1, take the Golden Rage 3 head start... and free just 1 'hero'
...take the alternate path in Golden Rage 2 right after you leave Dragon's Throat Cave
Note that Golden Rage 3's True Final Boss is still the same cheap bastard.
Just remember to jump over his lightning spam and try to fight high in the level. There are a lot of things to think about for just a 1v1, so if you're up for a maddening challenge try taking on the Good Ending. ~.o
