Oh yeah. That's why.

So a recent post in [livejournal.com profile] davidn's journal got me into picking up Crystal Towers 2 again. After getting my bearings in again with a new file, I switched back to my main (still sitting at about 90.6% completion)...and ran into a couple of problems.

Biggest problem is that I couldn't remember how I had the controls set up. I only got to the control settings menu through furious keyboard mashing, and when I saw what the controls were set for, I facepalmed...I was using the same general setup I use for emulators. T for Select (Use here), G for Start (menu), and FRED for AXYB (not actually used, magic2, magic1, and jump).

So, once I got that sorted out, I eventually ran into my 2 other big problems:

1) I'm still missing 8 Orbs, but since I seem to have completed all the main stages at least once, I can't figure out where they could be. (/subtlecryforhelpdavid)

2) The "constantly losing gems" and race (whether for checkpoints or against a ghost) Rainbow Gems, regardless of what stage they're in, are still the bane of my CT2 existence. I fully completed Flying Fortress C, yet have gotten nowhere with Luminous Tower A. :[


...Oh well, game's still fun.
