LEGO Rock Raiders (2000, PlayStation, North America) walkthrough

Описание: A complete walkthrough of the North American (NTSC-U/C) PlayStation version of LEGO Rock Raiders, a 1999 mining-themed action-strategy game based on the LEGO theme of the same name. This walkthrough covers all 18 one-player levels and all 6 two-player levels.

European (PAL) PlayStation version:    • LEGO Rock Raiders (1999, PlayStation, Euro...  
Windows PC version:    • LEGO Rock Raiders (1999, Windows) walkthrough  

Gold medals are achieved in all 24 levels.
In total: 175 green energy crystals, 38 red energy crystals, and 25 lost Rock Raiders were collected in one-player mode; and 56 green energy crystals, 12 red energy crystals, and 17 lost Rock Raiders were collected in two-player mode (231 green crystals, 50 red crystals, and 42 Rock Raiders total).
Most of the two player levels were done by immediately teleporting the second player out and completing it with just player one. However, for Crystal Islands I ended up controlling both players. The level is not impossible with one player like Hop To It! was, but it would be tedious.

This version of the game is notably different from the Windows version. It was originally supposed to be a port, but LEGO Media decided that a real-time strategy game would not sell well on PlayStation, and made Data Design Interactive redo the entire game in only six months (hence its low quality). The game was also initially rejected by Sony of America, leading to the North American version having several more months of development, including entirely new levels by Gameworld Seven Ltd.
The files from the PAL version of the game are dated August 1999, while the files from the NTSC version's are dated February 2000.

Emulated using DuckStation. Internal Resolution set to 3x; Aspect Ratio set to PAR 1:1; Crop set to All Borders; True Color Rendering and Geometry/Culling/Texture Correction enabled.

Recorded at 1152x720 resolution (game originally 384x240), 60fps. This video has been upscaled to 1080p to improve the quality due to Youtube's terrible compression (please Youtube use higher bitrates for videos).
