What's that video game boss you've never been able to beat, or took you the longest to beat? (sh.itjust.works)

What a reference. That's the first video game I ever played. Somehow it's still hard af as an adult. The visuals are great to this day imo.

Getting kicked out of the final level on beginner difficulty is a little patronising though. I'd be lucky to even get there on Beginner in the first place, would be a kick in the teeth after all that hard work

    I didn't even know how you could switch difficulties for the longest time!

    But there was a demo where where the code for the first level was shown (BBAB, I'm pretty sure), so I was able to start the game on expert that way, and eventually beat it. It's tough though.

    The code for the last level was 46EA, at least for the version I had. Looking around the web to confirm, there's a lot of conflicting information, so I'm guessing the codes were randomised to some extent, maybe.
