Good writeup!
Do you think his coming back from the dead after repeatedly dying should be part of his or his world's writeup? Either as a time travel related power where he restores to life in a parallel world where he has not yet died, or perhaps another character is intervening Kang-like with his destiny?

Given how annoyed he looks when he dies in the game, perhaps he is irritated because he knows he will soon come back to life?

I think his life is somehow magically linked to American quarters. I put enough of them in this game.

Maybe then a guardian angel or advisor type power?
Like, the person feeding the game is also directing his attempts (well or not).

Maybe in addition to his own statistics, his quarter-feeding tail gunner / guardian angel / interfering interdimensional player can substitute their own (hopefully higher) score for his when he gets stuck?

It could also be a form of time travel power where once a player has gone through part of the game it becomes radically easier in future, so maybe he has a "remember future event" or "vision of a saved world" power? Successful check gives him +1 CS, yellow gives him +2, red means he cruises through that challenge without a further roll?

Just thinking of how the game played once you'd spent several hundred dollars on it

Yeah, I fondly recall Dragon's Lair. Finally bought the guide book (it was about 60 pages) but never saw the game again to beat it after that.

AM damage on the regular sword seems a bit much with only GD strength. Shouldn't the sword do EX damage instead?

Here in dallas they got a few arcade place that you pay $10 for all days. Can relive the glory of the 80's!!

They are making a movie, Dragon's Lair. Ryan Reynolds to star as Dirk.

Hmm... I think I'd rather him work on a sequel to Detective Pikachu... or a third Deadpool movie.

Do you know who's playing Princess Daphne?

She seems pretty innocent and dim witted. One of the pop stars would fit. Ariana Grande?
