I had several failed attempts before this. A bunch of deaths, game overs, failing to actually continue the game when I game over'd, etc.

Then out of nowhere, I banged out a deathless run. Insane.

I will never revisit this. This is my least favorite black box NES game, but I'm at least happy I got a decent time before putting this away for good.

Also I rarely pop off when finishing a run but this was warranted haha
