Most Creative + Weirdest PC Engine Games ?
« on: February 18, 2016, 11:39:30 AM »
Hey guys, just today I watched a longplay of hany in the sky and hany on the road and thought it was quite unique in how the games played. It has now spurred my interest into discovering more!. So what are the PC Engines most creative and weird games ? :-k

Gonna echo Gomola Speed and Genpei Toumaden.

Also gonna add Gekisha Boy.  That's a pretty wacky one.

EDIT: sorry null, didn't see that you'd already posted that last one. >.<

I'd add:

* Somer Assault/Mesopotamia
It's not earth-shattering, but I enjoy the mechanics and the "rules" of this puzzle/shooter starring Slinky.


* Hany in the Sky is a weird shooter (due to mechanics...the gun rotates 360 degrees)...sadly, this conceit is more of a gimmick than a worthwhile game design (rotating the gun is more annoying than enjoyable). Sadly, not a great game.



If you had a category called GOOFY I would add:

God Panic — use of cover songs + wacky/weird/scatalogical  designs = some genuine, fleeting moments of creativity.

Toilet Boys — Juvenile scatalogical humor. Lame attempt to add some novelty to a otherwise generic Xevious-clone. But, as soon as I say that, I want to play it again.  WARNING! BUTTCOPTER APPROACHING! Plus,it teaches dumb Americans how to spell "bidet"...oh, no, it probably doesn't.

JJ & Jeff — Slightly inspired scatalogical humor in platformer a la Wonderboy 1/Adventure Island.

Emerald Dragon's battle system is rather unique.

Sol Moonarge, Neo Metal Fantasy, Dragon Knights, Linda3 and Madou Monogatari fit the bill for both.
