So, I think I found a bug. If on story mode continue screen you choose No, then start story mode again you can go back to the beginning of the level you died without using a continue. The only drawback is that you don't get to start from the last checkpoint.
I don't think that is the intended behavior, or is it? Are the continues intended to go back to last checkpoint but going back to the beginning of the last level is free unless you have no continues left to get to the continue screen?
Urgh i will remember this when i get back to Future War yet again to die 8 times :D
Yeah, I just spent one hour straight trying to beat that lol.
I kind of abused that to get the don't kill dogs achievement lol restarted a few levels over and over. Doesn't seem to mess with unlocks or achievements. Definitely isn't intended. But it seems like any cheating or reloading doesn't mess with unlocks, so they were pretty liberal about those.
Yeah there is no reason not to use it from the perspective of optimal playing. It's like using save states at the start of every level and practice it, no need to beat the level to unlock it in practice mode. So defeats the purpose of both continues and practice mode.
Oooh nice find! Thanks for sharing!
No problemo. 😎
