    according to the game description:
    "In the Star Year of 2038, the 4th world war on Earth destroyed all of mankind. The Starship Hector was thousands of light years away on an exploration mission. Upon their return to what is now ancient Earth, the Starship Hector found Earth to be desolate and inhabited by gruesome bio-mechanical Creatures."
    We've got some catching up to do, interstellar space travel and two world wars that leave the earth ruled by bio-mechanical Creatures in 18 years maybe corona virus is the catalyst.

    Half disappointed this starship isn't in the form of a cat

  • @sunburstbasser
    @sunburstbasser 6 років тому +10

    The 2 and 5 minute modes are score rushes. Hudson made a bunch of games with that feature. It was really popular on TurboGrafx shooters.
    There is an arcade shooter, Dangun Feveron, which has a hidden cat character.

  • @palmerjordan5397
    @palmerjordan5397 6 років тому +25

    Ryu should campaign for a sequel where his cat is a playable character

    Shoot'em Up's are some of the absolute hardest games out there, particularly Bullet Hell shooters.

    • @frostburnwoof

      Kamphaer Ikaruga comes to mind... yeeeesh.

    • @SackyBalls444
      @SackyBalls444 6 років тому +1

      And Ikaruga is one of the easier shmups. It's still a classic though.

    • @kamphaer3421
      @kamphaer3421 6 років тому

      I am noooo good at shmups. Even Gradius and R-types hand me my ass.

    • @g40rc378
      @g40rc378 6 років тому

      Most Gradius and R-Type games are really difficult. If you want a medium difficulty shmup, try G.Darius for PS1 or R-Type Final for PS2.

  • @BoxMonkeyStudios

    @CannonFodder89 6 років тому +1

    I've never heard about this game before this video, but this seems like a hidden gem of NES library. The difficulty is out of this world, but at least the game isn't very long and for once you actually benefit somehow from collecting points other than beating your high score that nobody cares about. In addition to the extra lifes you even have a health meter, so I'd say that this is challenging game but in a fair way since is all about reflexes and skill (even though it's easy to get bodied to instant death by hitting those suicide bombers). Great addition to your series, keep the groove!

    You get extra lives at 200,000, 500,000, and 1,000,000 points. You start with 2 extra lives and you can only have a maximum of 3 extra lives at a time. Each letter you find on the ground is worth 10,000 points. There are 2 letters for every sky view stage (1, 3, and 5). If you find all of the letters (H E C T O R) you get 1,000,000 points, automatically getting you all extra lives.

    In case you're wondering what those 2-minute and 5-minute modes are, they are called "caravan stages". They were a signature feature of Hudson Soft shooters, designed for nation-wide competitions in Japan (with the stage being towed from town to town on a trailer, hence the name). Here is some footage from the actual competitions, complete with button-mashing techniques: ua-cam.com/video/KAFFCsVIcJc/v-deo.html

    The side-scrolling/top-down perspective switch has me thinking of Blaster Master a bit...
    Is that game as difficult as I remember? I recall it being almost unreasonably esoteric in the pre-internet days.

    There's a hudson controller that says Hector '87 on it, and it was legal to use in Hudson's official tournaments for this game, but I'd recommend sticking with the standard controller because it feels for satisfying to beat it that way.

    You made it crazy far for such an intense game, gg!

    Those Hudson guys were pretty good at NES programming as this seems to run pretty smooth. So many NES games choke so hard when there's that much shit moving on the screen. I believe there was a significant hardware limitation with the NES on how many sprites it could draw.

      Ali Kandır If you think you remember using a Turbo controller that’s just a false memory. If you think you’ve seen them in UA-cam videos that’s just an optical illusion. They never existed, they’re a myth.

      Can you move the spaceship?

      Do enemies move in most erratic patterns whether intended or not?
      Do enemies shoot?
      Do you get fucked over by stupid things like touching the wall, literally dying in one hit?
      Does it take forever to kill most enemies and it's not even possible to kill all of them because of spam and constant dodging needed?
      Testing done lmao.

    • @gabrielgoncalves2763
      @gabrielgoncalves2763 5 років тому

      These old games are hard because they were not properly tested, lots of games from its time were developed and released without proper beta testing... that's why most old games are that way.
