I like the 1st Armed with Wings and the second Bubble Tanks game myself - (the first Bubble Tanks really needed a map system (added in the sequel) and the second Armed with Wings strayed a little from the beautiful simplicity of the original. (Not to mention the loss of the eagle or an equivalent). WARNING: If you play Bubble Tanks for more than five minutes you will be addicted.  :)

I like the art and style of Armed with Wings but there were just so many key moves needed that I decided to pass :(

Yeah, the same thing is true for the Nitrome Fat Cat game: if you aren't used to using many keys, then they aren't the games for you.

Is that a vague piece of innuendo or drug reference? I really did not pick up anything from the phrase.  :-\  :) Enlighten me, Chimera.  ;D

Ah, ok. Never heard of the A.K.A., but heard of the "...gives you wings" part. Thanks!  :)

It's not that I am not used to them Chibi, I physically can't. With Aquaria all I need do is reach across and prod one button or two, but when it comes to dexterity my left hand is useless because of a stupid childhood accident that seperated all the tendons in my hand. Stupidity in childhood often returns to haunt you, if it never even went away even  ::)
