I played Energy once or twice via emulation in, like, 1997 and I remember my biggest gripe with it (aside from the sub-NES quality graphics) was that the game took like 30 seconds to change from one screen to the next rather than just scrolling like any normal game.

That single aspect tried my patience so much I never really was able to give the game an honest chance.

It's an amazing game, and spawned an excellent homebrew title in 2007:



That's the kind of shit that encouraged and inspired me to give the PCE the homebrew it deserves


:shock: Damn, that game looks awesome.

Ark, I'm not teasing you: if ever there was a game begging to have its play mechanics fixed and overall experience streamlined, it would be ENERGY.

Your fate, I believe, is to salvage the rickety, leaky, blundering barge of ENERGY and transform it into the smooth, swift, effortless canoe it could only dream of becoming.

This, I decree.

Dude, it's incredibly awesome.  I bought a copy of it.  Best 30$ I ever spent. 

It's one of my goals to make sure the PCE homebrew scene starts getting good titles regularly.

Not that Insanity wasn't OK.  It's just... it wasn't anything spectacular due to 1980's game port... :-/

and, f*ck remaking Energy, lol.  That's too ambitious right now.

Energy is a great game, and I like it. I already knew what the game was about and that is why I brought it.

Just pretend that your playing that Physic god boy, and your in a metropolis, urban enviorment with demonic creatures all over the place. Rings a bell?

Just pretend you are playing a good game. Why did I waste $30 on Super Star Soldier when I could just own one HuCard, Deep Blue, and pretend it was fun? Kids these days. No imagination.

Don't waste your Energy.

Don't say that! Energy is the perfect candidate for a re-haul!

It's like 5$

It's worth it based off the cover art and the music alone.

I finally broke down and got me a cheap copy of this game. Oh, the shame of it all!
