Disponible desde hace un par de días en las plataformas Steam (WIN) y X-Box Live (XBO).

El material gráfico original no daba para un "soporte para 2160-P" real, por si había dudas:

Just the building; the train and the station are gorgeous, even if still too blue. The problem with what you describe is that you go to the blue inside coming from... a blue outside. It's atmospheric indeed, but the effect is diluted due to that. Since it's not too detailed nor it happens much there in either, it's just boring. And the elevator hole just after that (which is boring by definition, I know) doesn't help it.

Notice I don't think the themes are bad, just mediocre. They fit the setting and the graphics pretty well, anyhow, which is something. Having Sakimoto on board for a couple of themes would be great, on the other hand.

Glad to read that. There shouldn't be any issue, whichever the technology you're using for making the game. In fact, it's very rare the case of a Windows game designed at that res. (and free from subpixel crap and whatnot) which you can't run at the native mode after setting the desktop to it, at least. Devs aren't even aware.

If you face any problem with configuring a 15-kHz WIN-based system anyhow, feel free to ask. After taking a look here if you still haven't, that is: http://geedorah.com/eiusdemmodi/forum/v … php?id=295

I borrowed it from Josh, if I recall. (You want him in this thread, by the way, if you still haven't talked to him.)

I don't mind the dialogue appearing when entering every area. It's a good way of doing it, I believe -- there're not (perceivable) interrumptions. With the faces as they are, I'm not so sure, to be honest. Still find them too comical for the mood and the rest of the art. But it's not a thing I'd worry about for now.

People will play the easy mode and then will find no reason to play the real mode -- make no mistake. Unless there's scene development you only get there.

Y tanto. M-2 ya tiene rincón para las adaptaciones foráneas:

Oh, not at all. Think of Irem's Spartan X (or the Western version Kung-Fu Master, if you prefer). It basically is the before-and-after milestone in the short-range sidescrolling action genre. Your character doesn't move around at warp speed exactly and yet, the pace is fast and uninterrupted. And the memorization aspect is way less relevant than the reaction skills, comparatively, at least.

Your approach of course is not that, I'm aware, but that was precisely my point -- the arcade school, with Spartan X as its founder (Tatakai no Banka, Dragon Ninja, Daiku no Gen-san...), is more compelling and exciting than that other school which was soon confined in home territories and their low-spec requirements. (Which doesn't mean that the formula cannot be evolved a bit to be more exciting, and a wider move set is a good start indeed.)

The examples above show that there's no need for mid-range attacks in order to keep the intensity high enough -- it's more a matter of enemies in constant flow. Mid-range would, in principle, help in the subsequent crowd control aspect, but in the end, the game might become as hard as anyone no matter the range (Tora he no Michi is a good example of how to build a game around this). Anyway, both ideas can work, though I'll always be partial to the one which doesn't involve more than one main attack button -- if there's much need of using my third finger constantly (as much as the first button, or close enough), I'll treat that as a design mistake. Arcade conventions are against that and it's for a reason.

The former idea, by the way, suggests me that the weapons should be exclusively upgradeable -- the notion of seeing a more powerful and spectacular version of a known weapon only if you keep it for long enough (like in shooting games) always works and adds to the strategic aspect.

Keep in mind that, much like I do when I'm reviewing a game, I'm not considering the budget and resources aspects -- I'm just trying to picture what would be my ideal vision of your game, the perfect form. Adding a Metal Slug-like section would imply indeed creating another game engine, and that may be a lot to ask for. Nevertheless, after watching you video till the end, the first thing I thought is this will need variety more than anything, DECO-style. And it'd also be quite an epic way to surprise the player, especially, after such methodical mechanics. Again, I'm just brainstorming. With limited resources, it's always better one single engine perfectly polished than an amalgamation of genres just because.

So yeah; try it. Under the best conditions you can, please. Then, I'm confident that we won't need to discuss that that control scheme is far from optimal. The down + jump command assigned to both, going down to the lower plane and sliding/rolling/etc. is an old issue which is usually solved by not allowing to slide in the upper planes. The game is designed around that (there are numerous holes which let you go down, for instance) and adds an extra little layer of strategy.

I can suggest this:

For types 1 and 2:

- A: attack
- B: jump / slide (with down) / go down (with down)
- C: subweapon / zipline (when jumping)
- D: not used

Really -- on an arcade stick (and on any controller, when you come down to it), minus is more. Layouts such as Street Fighter's work for very particular reasons. This is not the case since the conventions are pretty old now. If you need to have both, whip and subweapons such as grenades [hey, I wrote that correctly this time], then, neutral/left/right + C is whip and down + C is subweapon (that is, when crouching). This way, you force me to use C button a lot, that's right, but since I don't have to worry about a 4th button and, since all the actions for that button are indeed about special weapons/tools, my brain will get used to it quickly. Depth without complexity -- arcade philosophy; tight design.

If you _really_ need to make the extra weapons usable mid-air, then D button should be included in the layout for something like this:

- A: attack
- B: jump / slide (with down) / go down (with down)
- C: whip / zipline (when jumping)
- D: subweapon

But then you should limit the subweapon action to a very punctual usage overall, as I explained to you the other day, or think about placing that layout on a type 3 configuration (maybe I'd swap C for D, in order to have zipline right below the jump button) so that you use two fingers for all the actions, but that's always way less natural for this genre.

And yep -- up + attack for subweapon is not something you'll find on arcade games, it's computer/console mentality from an era where these couldn't use a controller with more than 1 or 2 buttons. Not a good idea.

Comments on aesthetics will need to wait till tomorrow, I'm afraid.

Famitsu:

Confirmando que es un "adventure game" genuinamente nipón presentado con "sprites" y con partes de estrategia/simulación más bien anecdóticas.
