ITT: That Level/Boss from your childhood

You know, the one know that is still haunting after so many years. Maybe you still haven't finished that game yet because of it.

Confess and let the rage flow, /vr/.

Not that hard, yet so very much so. Guy's dangerous and hits hard and fast, and can use the powerups meant for you.

All the bosses from spyro 2. Maybe I just wasn't very smart.

Pete from Mickey Mania. Back when I was a kiddiebabby I had a hell of a time even reaching here (the flaming tower part with the weasel enemies was ridiculouss for me) let alone beating it. I could get lucky with phase 1 but the second part always fucking destroyed me when the spike ball things dropped. My brain then couldn't formulate how to properly dodge them.

I could never get past that stupid Mad Scientist level. I even had to use the level select cheat in the end.

This was too hard for a Stage 2, man.

Crush was easy. Ripto could be a pain due to having three phases and stealing your powerups. Gulp's the one who was a genuine pain in the ass, at least in my memories of it.

Suikoden II.

One of the early "event" levels in Back to the Future on the NES. Might've been the soda shop one, or the one after that.

The game was just stupid hard at times and every little thing you did wrong fucked you over.
Miss a clock? Can't finish the level.
Hit by something? Can't finish the level.
Sneezed while riding the skateboard? Bees appeared and raped you in that tenth of a second. Can't finish the level.

Jesus fucking christ. The game has a pretty consistent difficulty curve up until this fucker. Then it spikes into IWBTG levels.

Completely fucks up the pacing of the game's reasonable challenge level with its trial-and-error artificial difficulty.

The only yelling you're gonna hear here is "PLAY IT NOW!!!"

feels, feels everywhere in that game.
