Decided to beat it again, this time i only got 2 game-overs, one on stage 16, and the other on dracula.

I cant believe it myself, on my 3rd play-through, i got through the first 15 stages without getting a single game over, i bet i could've finished with one game over if it wasn't for that goddamn third bat on stage 16.

This replay really cemented my love for this game. Damn near perfect
