Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs

[Arkhan]

I am making this thread now.

The game will be a cross between R-Type, Power Golf, and Shogi. 

It will require the pachinko controller, mouse, and arcade card.



discuss.

How will this be different from the DC version? Also, will there be lots of lolis? Pachinkos love lolis.

If the game doesn't contain either Astérix, Lucky Luke, or Benoît Brisefer, I'll protest.

I want Gunsmoke.Riders.

II BUTTON shoots diagonal left. I BUTTON shoots diagonal right.

All the sprites/stages can feature this goofy "Saber Rider" IP, I suppose.

However, to offer some variety, I want 1-3 special stages that are basically Spy.Hunter.Riders (oil slick to thwart enemies, machine gun standard weapon, occasional rocket launcher to take out Saber.Copter, etc.)

If it's even a little Sunset Ridery I will be very excite.  Speaking of which, one of you smart devs would make my dream come true if you ported a version to PCE/TG

How could you possibly  know Benoît Brisefer?

So is there no actual game play footage of the game (in any format) available? Admittedly I only quickly scrolled through their kickstarter page and only found a bunch of stills

Because I was in French Immersion during my elementary school years in Canada, and that's what we'd read for fun in the school library.  :-D

And Tintin, of course.  ;-D

Ok, makes more sense than ccovell being a 60 years old french guy

There's some early 3DS gameplay footage in the video.

I must have missed that, all I saw were a few small still images in their main video. Isn't it a bit odd they don't have a ton of gameplay footage available for a game that is to be released in less than 13 months?

They don't have the license to do the game unless the KickStarter gets funded.

Why-on-earth would they have already written a huge portion of the game if they don't know if it can ever be released??

And as for development schedules ... 16-bit licensed games were done in 4-to-6 months of fulltime work back in the 80's.

Given the low funding goal here, and the amount that must be going out to the licensor, then I suspect that this isn't going to be a fulltime job for any of the participants. I'd be very happy to be wrong about that.

Who cares about the other versions.

ONLY PCE MATTERS!

What will the ESRB be on this game?

IMO, M or GTFO

Anime Only.
