Night Creatures has a pretty cool death animation, especially in a Beavis & Butthead kind of way.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

Kung Fu for the NES, but only because of the sound effect. *sproing!* *laughter*

JJ & Jeff.  Funny look on their face + funny music = funny VG death.

Why, this is a no brainer: the death animation in Timeball / Blodia wins, hands down:

"You've run out of track!"

Indeed.

A little piece of my soul is lost every time that orb from Blodia fall and breaks. :(

The depressing music really tops it too.

Silly, you don't play Timeball. I dunno what verb you DO use, but it's not play.

Hahahaaa, I love what Necromancer said. :)

hahhahhaa.

Also, I'm with nat and keranu: I like the music in Blodia. I with the lazy bastards included more than 2 tracks with the game, though. That would have been wonderful.

So, who is going to be kind enough to post a screenshot of the broken orb?

Awesome. I love sunteam_paul. He shows a video montage for all his clips, but he keeps the soundtrack intact. Very nice. :)

I'm not a big Bonk fan, which might be why I like his death animation the best. I love the way he just bounces off to the side like he's KOed, and then if you want to keep playing the game you press start to bring him back alive and your "guy" counter decreases by one. A very graceful design, I think.

Yeah, I agree with you. I dig how Bonk's corpse remains on the screen.
