We are still waiting on a suitable Amiga AGA emulator with robust recording features before tackling such games.

Player's Review
Based on the Spy Kids movie (there is another GBA game that has the Spy Kids license as well), but it doesn't ignore the fact the mechanics have many flaws.
This is a shovelware 'game' that is clearly aimed at younger audiences who just want something to play sporadically, which has no proper ending and the level designs loop themselves until you reach round 100 (though the variations stop at a round much earlier than that), plus that the rank system actually ends at 'Master Elite Spy' which is gotten by reaching the 750,000 point mark. You can earn some more ranks after that but they're really glitched, because you get downgraded to Elite Spy for no apparent reason, and guess what is worse? That the downgrade after that one is Trainee. Yes, TRAINEE. Not to mention controls are quite bad, especially at the Dragonfly scene. Oh and did I mention you just get a girl sprite when you choose the 'girl' option and nothing else, not even a slight variation in the text dialogue?
I play through Juggler until I reach the 'purple' outer space at 'level' 20, Dragonfly up to 'level' 11 where no more new types of creatures appear, and some Magma Race until I reach the highest rank. Really a 'game' I cannot recommend to anyone, not even to the worst of my enemies and I am not kidding when I say it.
0:00:00 - Start
0:01:24 - Juggler
0:38:27 - Dragonfly
0:56:51 - Magma Race
1:00:58 - 'Ending' and Game Over scenes
