you can buy every upgrade [browser]

You can buy every upgrade in this tiny 1-bit metroidvania-style platformer by iwasgame. (controls: arrows keys to move, Z or Space to jump, X or Shift to shoot)

Nice! I don't think you can get completely stuck, but planning ahead before upgrading might make things easier.

Cool game. And don't forget to go to the screen behind the "End" screen to get the additional heart.

The ground pound needs a bit of height to work.
I spent all 35 of my coins & now I am broke again.

that last one that required several blocks took a bit. Fun game!

For the life of me, I can't find the last 2 coins to let me get the heart.

Never mind, finally found the spot I was missing and it was simpler than I thought. Cool game! I really like how it isn't possible to softlock yourself early on - even if you buy things in the wrong order, you can still get enough coins to continue if you're clever. (Or at least, I don't *think* it's possible - it doesn't seem like it is.)

Could you share a hint? I think I'm stuck in the same way.

Never mind, power of posting.

Loved this one!

Bart- I've been following your blog for over 15 years (since I was a kid!) and this is my first comment ever! Just wanted to thank you for being my online games aggregator (and developer!) for most of my life haha. You have great taste in games! All the best :)
