I forget which platform it was, but one version of that TMNT game was literally impossible because someone fucked up the distance of a jump in one of the sewer levels, making it an impossible jump to make.

I had it on PC as a kid and it was hard enough just reading the codes out of the booklet using that piece of red cellophane to get the fucker to start up lol

Are you thinking of that one small gap where you have to just walk over it without jumping, and trying to jump makes you fall?

Ah, fuck I thought of that damn jump. I spent months trying to get over it, until someone found that it was small enough that you could walk over it.

I think so. On the working versions you can just walk across but on the broken one it's too far to do that and jumping makes you hit the ceiling and also not make it. Though it's been a while since I've both played it or seen the little videos pointing out the error on one of the versions.

Pretty sure it was the PC port of TMNT. On NES there's a very difficult jump, and on PC the gap is too wide.

It's not the annoying gap that can be walked over.
