I worked on this game in QA. When we got new builds, I was the one who got to create save files for the rest of the team so they didn't have to start from the beginning each time. Got to the point where I could beat it in about 6.5 hours and minimal upgrades (only the time-slowing spell, iirc). Not bad for a chicken chaser!

I played this game as a kid, and I remember it being really hyped, but I also remember the game feeling pretty short. I think I beat it in a day close to launch and never really picked it up again. It’s very believable that you could beat it in 6.5 hours.

Ain't no grind like retesting the same shit over and over as QA

Hem people say it sounds like a fun job, I ask them if playing the same broken 3 levels of Barbie Horse Adventures 8 hours a day, 6-7 days a week is their idea of fun.

and with the The Lost Chapters. Amazing memories playing this

My only problem with The Lost Chapters is that they changed Jack of Blades' voice to a generic deep demonic-sounding one. His original voice was better.
