Pirate's Curse is pretty sweet. Probably the best Shantae game made so far. It's a lot longer than that Risky's Revenge, but I don't think it's as long as Shantae GBC.

That's good to hear. I was hoping it would be longer. I enjoyed the previous one but felt short changed in length.

I finally got Pirate's Curse today and I'm lovin it. It's definitely an improvement on the previous titles. I'm almost done gathering all the squids and magic but for the life of me I'm missing one of those bat things in Scuttle Town and I can't find it. Dx Anyone else happen to know or have a list of their locations there? All I get from google is review links.

Also can't wait for Half-Genie Hero.

Did you go to the west of the mayor? It requires all the powerups to get there. There's also one in the forest.

And one if you ram a wall by running with the boots in the sewers below the palace.

I found the one by the mayor and the forest. Not sure about the sewers, let me check. =D Thanks.

No problem.

I do need to go back into my save and buy the last few things I'm missing to get 100%, and I'd like to see if I could speedrun it a bit to unlock that artwork.

Trying the speed run now. I'm replaying one mode as pirate mode using it to take my time and find the shortest routes then I switch to the speedrun and follow those routes up to where I'm at in the other file. *reallydoesntwanttohavetodoaspeedrunasecondtime*

It's two hours exactly. I'm on Tan Line island now and still under one hour. x[ Trying to grab squid were I can without going out of the way so I have health for Pirate Master at the end.

Welp on Bog island now at 57min. It's getting harder and harder to shortcut. Dx

It's definitely pirate mode. If anyone can do it on normal then they deserve a reward of some kind.

Game's still unreleased. There was an open beta last Halloween, it seems? Anyone know if it was any good?

Ah well, thanks anyways. As it happens, I was looking up this info just yesterday! I guess it's that time when fans start to come out of the woodwork to wonder what's going on?

It seems there were a few videos of it. It does look very stylish, if nothing else:

My internet sucks so I couldn't load much but it does look fun. D:
Hopefully it's as fun as Pirate's Curse. I played the first and second game and they was okay but the Pirates Curse was a great platformer/adventure =D
