Detana!! Twinbee

[Lilgrafx]

I got the 3D classic: Twin Bee, it's a port of the Famicon version and it's really fun. The 3D looks cool and I love the power-up system, how does anyone not like the bells? Juggling like 5 bells at once is sweet.

I just realized that this thread (discussing the virtues/shortcomings of the power-up system in Twin Bee) has made me better appreciate the goddamn Twin Bee series!

Not that I have completely changed my opinion, of course.

That's what we're here for, bro.

Seriously though, Twin Bee stood out because it was a series of games in a massive flood of vertical shooters that tried something a little different and succeeded. True, it's not to everyone's taste, but it's tries a few different things which has earned it a place in the shoot-em-up hall of fame due to a fact that the differences are not just superficial but related to the core of the game itself.

Word up.

I still wish their was a counter for "bells collected/total bells" and "power-up bells collected/total bells" because that's what I compulsively do (I have problems).
