Re: Dynamite Headdy: ESCAPE HERO! | THREE FRIENDS | FRIEND'S ROOM
Quick question to raocow, are you playing the Genesis ROM in an emulator, or are you playing the Steam Port?

According to Steam, you even own the game.

Re: Dynamite Headdy: ESCAPE HERO! | THREE FRIENDS | FRIEND'S ROOM
haha, welp!
I won't feel bad about using a rom then, since I own the original.

Yeah, unless you really want the image upscaling, probably not worth it to change now.

Re: Dynamite Headdy: ESCAPE HERO! | THREE FRIENDS | FRIEND'S ROOM
Ok, so this is probably my favorite game of all time ever, so I guess I should break my relative forum silence for this thread.
I guess I could detail the secret bonus points as they come. That's a fun thing--secret bonus points are things you get for doing optional, silly, and sometimes (in the later-game) very very hard things. They're worth points at the end of each act, but points do nothing. Getting all the secret bonus points in the game does nothing too. They're just there for more fun/challenge I guess. Here're the ones raocow could have gotten so far:
If peeps are curious I could also detail the plot. It's not elaborated on at all in the English version, so things can seem entirely random, though mostly they're not. At this point, all that's happened is what we saw in the opening cutscene--the Dark Demon is taking over, taking toys and either accepting them into his new imperial army, or rejecting and destroying them. Headdy was rejected, but escaped and is not off to stop the Dark Demon. The "cat" we encountered at the end of Act 1.1 is Trouble Bruin, a bear who's beef with Headdy is mostly just that he thinks he should be the star of the game.

Many years ago I watched Madam Luna (a friend of Deceased Crab) LP this game, with DC as a guest. Interested in seeing how a blind run goes.

Re: Dynamite Headdy: ESCAPE HERO! | THREE FRIENDS | FRIEND'S ROOM
This game looks super busy and I'm loving it so far!
Uh...Do I just sign here? What do you mean it should be obvious? There are people in this world...well...a whole lot of people that can't follow basic instructions!

Neat to see how similar some of the enemy animations are to the ones from mischief makers. Did not know they were made by a same studio, but it does kind of show.

Re: Dynamite Headdy: ESCAPE HERO! | THREE FRIENDS | FRIEND'S ROOM
Oh neat, thought it might have been Dynamite Headdy next after what raocow said. I never owned this game but I rented it a few times as a kid and it left an impression, I don't believe I ever managed to beat it back then but I had a ton of fun with it regardless.
Awesome soundtrack too. ^^

Re: Dynamite Headdy: ESCAPE HERO! | THREE FRIENDS | FRIEND'S ROOM
I wonder how raocow is going to handle the limited continues. Dynamite Headdy is a hard game, so he's going to get a game over sooner or later. He could reload his state at the beginning of the level, but it'll suck if he gets stuck with a single life and no continues halfway through the game.
Re: Dynamite Headdy: NORTH TOWN | CONCERT PANIC | FIRE CARNIVAL | identical | GUEST AREA | STARLIGHT STORM
Oh man, I took a look at the changes from the Japanese to the English version. Some of the bosses that followed a pattern in their attacks were made completely random in what they do, and some of them had their HP increased. One of the later bosses actually had its HP doubled!
After how easy Dust was to play through, raocow's in for a bit of a shock going from one extreme to the other.

Mind translating? I did a Google search, and I'm either confused on what you mean, or you made an insanely meta joke regarding the two versions of the game, that if it was intentional, I have no choice but to applaud you for a very beautiful comment.

More secret bonus points!
Plot-wise, we met Heather here! She's also in the market of stopping the Dark Demon, and she explains that these keys will open the door to the Dark Demons lair, and each is guarded by a key master. She'll hold on to 'em for you. We'll need them later in the game.
raocow found his first liberty bonus game! Beat these for a digit of a secret code. You'll want 4 of them by the end, and they get harder as they go. Unfortunately, there are only 6 chances all game, and raocow already missed one, so he can only fail one time if he wants the reward.

You should also go over all the different Heads you can equip. It concerns me raocow was ignoring the powerup dude during the boss fights.

A running theme of Treasure games I've noticed is they seem to be more collections of "look at this neat thing I programmed" than actual cohesive games that build on themselves, which leads to a rollercoaster-ride like experience. It's super interesting and I've honestly never seen anything like them.
Re: Dynamite Headdy: NORTH TOWN | CONCERT PANIC | FIRE CARNIVAL | identical | GUEST AREA | STARLIGHT STORM
Well, I'm a bit disappointed now. Like I said, I checked Google for a translation, and got two possible results. A literal translation came out as "Die Slowly", while a more casual translation came out as "Take It Easy". Considering that the difference in difficulty between the Japanese and English versions of the game had been brought up, I thought that the pun regarding the two translations was amazingly fitting and would have been an insanely impressive joke.Grounder wrote:http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/yukkuri-shiteitte-nekurt91 wrote:Mind translating?

I was going to say something but this pretty much boils it down. This games feels more like a hack or a mod made by someone who was an absolute master at the base game's scripting language, but had no real sense for game flow or even really explaining the stuff they whipped up - so it's just like you're dragged from one gimmick to another with no breathing room, minimal effort spent actually introducing the gimmick, and having a bunch of bosses that drop in at seemingly random times just to show that a boss what made.MoneyMan wrote:A running theme of Treasure games I've noticed is they seem to be more collections of "look at this neat thing I programmed" than actual cohesive games that build on themselves, which leads to a rollercoaster-ride like experience.

The fact that you can get a random bonus stage out of nowhere for hitting the powerup cycler dude at the right time is like the perfect illustration of that.
