Lazrael has finished Banana Nababa (formerly Boss Arena), his boss battling platform game. It’s good! It’s hard, but totally doable, to defeat all of the six bosses.
Most of the bosses have simple patterns, but multiple forms. It can be grueling. This is a good chance to work out your left hand by mashing on the attack button (you know what I’m insinuating). In the game, you can switch back and forth between two weapons – an axe (like the one in Castlevania) and a spear (which flies straight forward).
And if you want to feel really bad about yourself, you can watch Mr. Peckerston beat every boss without getting hit: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 (messed up sound in the Level 3 video)

I’m actually quite tempted to use it’s acronym as the post title.
In Super Haunted Insomnia Tower, a little yellow mouse like thing with blue pants is hellbent on climbing up a haunted tower. The tower isn’t only a tad haunted, it’s SUPER HAUNTED, and uh them ghosts are insomniacs thus the forcibly made title.
Anyways, our little protagonist must climb as long as he can before the inevitable death picks him off. A total of 10 different fiends that chill out in the tower all have unique powers and they aren’t too happy about that damn climber. And they’re insomniacs so they are very cranky too.
The higher you get the more frequently the ghosts appear. After a certain time there can be numerous spirits bullying you at a time. Also the more higher you get the less blocks to stand on appear. So with time the difficulty increases.
Like in Ice Climber and Kid Icarus, you can warp from the left side off the screen to the right side and vice versa. This will prove handy no doubt.
While playing you get a randomly picked tune to play in the background. There’s only two so don’t wet your pants over the amount, but rather, the quality of the tunes.

Does look like Invader, doesn’t it? Though both are charming in their own ways.
Poyo is a platformer consisting of fifty levels, which was created by Lazrael in under one month using Game Maker. Consider this: the only actions available to the titular character are walking, jumping and warping. Yet it will still stump a few players especially in later stages.
Warping is an essential skill to master, and most of the puzzles involve pulling off a succession of moves correctly.
Cave Story. Within a Deep Forest. Eternal Daughter. Poyo comes pretty close to joining this elite circle. Perhaps the author’s next attempt?
Other works include Pozzo – Jello Crusade and Flapper.
