PowerUpLetDown |
| | Adventures of Dino Riki (Video Game) / int_1859b3e2 |
comment |
Power Up Let Down: One of the power-ups transforms Dino Riki into Macho Riki, which lets him shoots psychic projections of himself at enemies and take a hit without losing health. Unfortunately, the fact that Dino Riki reverts back to using throwing rocks after getting hit and the fact that the fireball weapon is much, MUCH better make this power-up more trouble than it's worth. Getting too many 'Boot' powerups, which increase Dino Riki's speed, will make him almost uncontrollable and increase his risk of running into an enemy, an enemy's bullet, or falling into water/a pit. |

comment |
Super Drowning Skills: There are river crossings in this game that serve as deathtraps if Dino Riki botches a jump. And on top of that, there are also small (but deep) puddles that will kill him just as well. |

Hyperactive Sprite: Justified since the stages are constantly scrolling, forcing Dino Riki to stay on the move. At least up until you get to the Boss. |

Endless Game: After defeating the final boss, the game just loops back to stage 1. Which means that you get absolutely nothing for clearing all seven worlds in one sitting. |

Equipment Upgrade |

comment |
Equipment Upgrade: Dino Riki initially throws rocks, but power-ups let him upgrade it into tomahawks, then boomerangs, and finally fireballs that he can shoot in various directions; however his weapons downgrade again if he takes damage. |

Bullet Hell: Everything shoots little white flickering energy balls at you. EVERYTHING. The monsters that walk back and forth, the monsters that fly in arcing patterns, the monsters that fly in zig-zag patterns, the monsters that try to dive bomb you, they're all shooting at you, all the time. |

American Kirby Is Hardcore: Inverted. The American boxart feels tame when compared to the Japanese boxart which has mild cartoon violence. |

comment |
Hard Levels, Easy Bosses: With the exception of the Monster Fly, the bosses are pretty easy even if Dino Riki is using the stone. If he's got the torch, they're pretty much "Hold A and Win". |

comment |
Continuing is Painful: Dino Riki's default weapon is throwing rocks which are unreliably slow but can be replaced, via weapon upgrades, with Tomahawks, Boomerangs, and finally Fireballs. Unfortunately, dying reduces him back to using rocks, which leaves him at the mercy of fast-moving enemies. |
