Oh, you did the throwback contest in one go! Awesome. 
You did miss a few things in Lost Forest Romp. There's definitely a (slightly) better hint to getting through the forest. Not sure if you missed anything in the end, though. You just need to find the eleven million ducks in the cellar, and then you can get the dragon on your side, rather than having to fight all of them.
Anyway, I'm glad the fight was challenging - I wanted it to be, but not in an unfair way, like giving the enemies outrageous hitpoints or defence. It should be more a matter of tactics, like lining up multiple enemies to hit at once, and which of them you focus on first. Still having the bomb or the elixir from earlier were intentional crutches, too, although it would have been nicer to give the player new ones near the end... Oh well, suck it!

And it would work. (Notice the extra space) But this script wouldn't:
