Konami's The Treasure of Usas - SCC version - openMSX Longplay [ウシャス]

The IPS file can be found @ www.msx.org/ne...
The Treasure Of Usas is a platform game. Centuries ago, the War God Induras banished Usas, the supreme Mother God, and threw the four pieces of her jewel in the winds. Wit and Cles are attempting to find the broken jewel to try and achieve one of the greatest discoveries of the academic world. Their adventures, controlled by you, will lead them to many strange places to fight many unusual enemies. There are five stages in the game.
There are emotion icons in the game and by touching these icons your player will change emotion. At the top of the screen you can see which emotion you have. This is important because you 'll have to have the same emotion of the demon of the level to fight it.

Played this as a kid. Amazing game with one of the most creative sound tracks ever. I’ll bet Kinuyo Yamashita was on the composition team of this game just like Castlevania

Uşas is an ancient nuclear bomb, damn.

[@orlandomendes3616]

[@Capullation76]

Love this game, the four level passwords have been living rent free in my brain since 1987.

[@romio2339]

Amazing game, one of konami greatest games .. spent much time playing it with pleasure ❤️

[@panamanianbootyscout1768]

This game looks excellent how have I never heard of it before

[@TheopenMSXChannel]

growing up in the US? :D

[@Kusanagi64]

This is my childhood game

[@jtz2268]

What?!? That part at 52:45 is fixed in the enhanced version? I swear if you jump over that falling platform, I get killed for whatever reason even if I didn't touch that cursed falling platform!
Other than that, its still an awesome game!

[@Xstatic1975]

Played this a lot as a kid. Even though SCC is a superior sound chip I like the sound of the original Usas better.

[@TheEdwin73]

yes, its basicly replacing the old psg 'square wave' with a scc 'saw-tooth soundwave' it was written for 3 channel psg...those tunes of the old konami's are great though, although todays game music is more sophisticated, but certainly cannot compare to the composition quality of the old 8-bit era konami's.

[@Jaack35]

Gracias por el video! 🤗

[@alfonsoflorio]

Bring back so many memories.. Especially the music with the FM chip

[@TheopenMSXChannel]

the music normally is just PSG (standard MSX sound chip) - someone recomposed the music using PSG and SCC.

[@Hoppa12345]

@@TheopenMSXChannel I was curious, I never seen Usas with an SCC.. the cardridge also doesnt have an SCC chip installed.

[@detective_l2413]

Using the Snatcher cart on the 2nd slot, or someone else just recomposed it?

[@crat82]

Is there another game with these brothers? I can remember the game I played, there were also 2 brothers but I'm not sure if it is this one...

懐かしすぎる

[@VahanNisanian]

The ending explains that the statue was a trigger mechanism for a nuclear bomb. Yes, Wit and Cles die at the end of the game, as does 1/3 of the world's population. As the game's ending states in Japanese, ISN'T THAT MESSED UP!?

[@fireflocs]

That is some serious "We don't know how to write endings" syndrome.

[@VahanNisanian]

@@fireflocs I think the moral is "Not all treasures are worth seeking".

[@fireflocs]

@@VahanNisanian That's a fine moral, but the game does a poor job of setting it up.

[@Freez_Izzy]

DAMN, KIDS!

[@tonyleungnl]

Please don't skip the intro 's and cut scenes... For the whole experience.

[@TheopenMSXChannel]

The cut scenes are all there - the intro I skipped since you can easily see this yourself. But you're right I'll show the intros too :)

[@leoleonvids]

I never noticed just how weird the death animation is.
