There's a little bit of roughness to it (more than the usual Telenet brand  :P ) in that video (like the parallax scrolling at the boss). It makes me wonder if they had done all this coding for a new shootemup, had the project canned, and then decided to stick the remains into a hidden bonus mode for a random game. It seems like an awful lot of effort for something that many people wouldn't even discover if they didn't have the right system card.

But color me impressed that it's so elaborate!

It will take some getting used to the horizontal scrolling combined with the enemy formations and some hard to see bullets. Still a nice bonus to an already great game.

Holy hell!  Damn, stinks there's no music, maybe some hacking of it, could make it so a soundtrack could be added.

Don't worry, Tobias will use music from some other game's arranged soundtrack for the standalone release. :P

Does the game keep loading from the CD? If not then why not just put another game disc or CD in the TG16 or pc engine CD player and hit the play button. Or better yet. Hit play on the disc that is already inserted for music.

I just answered my own question. No audio pass through from the CD audio while the game is in play. doesn't work.

Pretty awesome that stuff like this is still being discovered. It makes me wonder what else is lurking out there yet.

I thought of that, but was playing on my TurboDuo. At first I thought that it was a single stage with a single load, but then the second stage had new enemies and dynamic tiles. Since it's running under CD2, it has to be loading between stages, even though I didn't notice at the time.

But I'll try it with my IFU setup another time.

So to confirm this will work with any system card under 3.0? I actually don't have anything below that, but figure they'd be cheap enough to buy to play this. Wouldn't want to buy a card and have it not work though so if anyone can confirm what this works with that would be awesome. I believe there is 1.0, 2.0 and 2.1?

Yes it will. You can use an everdrive for those CD cards as well.

Thanks for the video, BT.  It looks pretty decent for a hidden bonus game.

Also this is obvious, but everyone here should buy their copy of Tenshi no Uta II now, before they all become $50.

I grabbed one for $8 yesterday. Doesn't get too much cheaper than that shipped from Japan.

There isn't much on US eBay right now, unless I am missing some incorrectly spelled listings.
