-Played The Duel Mode as Gilius Thunderhead (the dwarf)
-Aims for fastest time

I would say this is is more for competition purpose. using another character is allowed.

This is a pretty good run, though I'm not generally a fan of movies that showcase only the first level or, as in this case, a mode or quest that isn't the main game. Just out of curiousity, I noticed that most of the enemies are fought one at a time, rather than getting them in the same place and attacking them at the same time, as is usually the case in games like this (Double Dragon, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II, etc), other than in the final stage. I assume this is because, with enemies who are defeated so quickly, it wasted too much time to maneouvre them into the same position. Using the dwarf to roll back and forth between enemies seems very efficient, but do you have an estimate as to how much time it saved? It seems strange to the eye to watch multiple enemies attacked separately.

Acoording to the "Last Edit" thing, this is the oldest undecided submission on this site. I say we decide it's fate within the next week and get it out of the way.
A hundred years from now, they will gaze upon my work and marvel at my skills but never know my name. And that will be good enough for me.

I don't really see it as worth publishing. The beat-em-up adventure is really what golden axe is about anyway, but there is already a nice run of that. Now if someone wants to do a full run through Golden Axe 2 or 3 I might be interested.

Well, it's your run - why don't you just cancel it if you think it shouldn't be published?

Good playing, but I'd much rather see the story mode run. Meh vote from me.
