This is genuinely one of my favourite Megadrive game. The visual style initially freaked me out as a kid but it blends perfectly with such an atmospheric soundtrack. Never did complete it, though.
The Japanese title is "Crying", which further compounds the game's bizarreness and atmosphere. A cult classic that doesn't get enough recognition - still enough for Sega to include it among their selection of their 16 bit titles to make available to newer generations, luckily!
Fun Fact: The Biowarriors are named Orestes (Top Left), Electra (Top Right), Hecuba (Bottom Left) and Polyxena (Bottom Right), They’re named after the greek mythology figures
I feel so bad for the third boss, that lil dude just wants to have fun and cover himself in slime, and then us big bullies just invade his home and kill him :((
Huh... I usually love Shoot em up's (the classics, bullet hell is too much for me), and as a kid I more or less HAD to have every game ever, but this game was one of the very few I barely touched and lost interest in almost immediately... Even now I own it on my Playstation 4 (Sega Classics) but I barely tried it out... Am I losing out you think? Should I pick it up at all? And no, it has nothing to do with the graphics or sound or such, I have beaten every other game in the collection
While technically nothing to do with it, the backstory of the game does involve all the weird monsters being created due to multiple nations on the game's planet using their own flavour of a T-virus-style plague, so it could arguably be Resi's distant future. Yes I do realise I'm massively overthinking this for what was just a joke about different countries using different names for games.
No damage, on Hard...I'm astounded! This is one of my favorite games of all time, and so strange it was never followed up with absolutely _anything_ considering it was made by Sega in-house. People really didn't mention it much until it started showing up in compilations, but I'm glad Sega at least recognized it. It really is one of the most bizarre biological-horror games ever, with an eerily deep OST that compliments it's strangeness perfectly! Truly, a one of a kind game. Great playthrough! _Side Note : That "Alien Worm" on the cover is totally a twig & berries with a hood in the level. I understand it was probably inspired by Giger, perhaps the Space Jockey, but...c'mon. A little too on the nose there. I have never been able to un-see it._
I love the designs in this game tho the last few bosses after the Airship are let downs. Boss 6 isn't even really a boss and the Core is pretty boring design wise.. I'm fine with it starting as a machine but it turning into some microchip thing is really boring, it looks like the first boss of a generic space shooter. It should've been something more thematic to the game.
@Keith Courage RX-78-2 But even in that level there's still a target you have to fight and I'd argue that that Stage 3's battleship is more similar to the Giant Airship. Stage six is more similar to R-Types stage 6 with the grid enemies you dodge for a little while and it's over which was also pretty lame and my least favorite """boss""" from R-Type 1.
@@talhajaved9265 Thank you so much for this important information! I fall in love with this game and that boss was so sus for me, because looks like the "beast mutation" version of the player's ray ship I am glad the creators made them as a boss, because they would be -in my opinion- a waste as playable character
** edit: as pointed out, there doesn’t seem to be any available links to the 1990 “beta” release, so this is invalid. Leaving comment up for context ** It’s actually available as a hidden ship in the 1990 release. At the Ship Selection, highlight the upper left ship and press A+B+Start to get the Dragon-Bio 5.
My sister's ex-boyfriend used to have this. The furthest any of us could get was stage 3 at the time. I could almost certainly get further now, but those later stages turn into complete clusterfucks. There were multiple moments on the final boss's third phase where you only just managed to avoid taking a stray bullet. Also, it's a great game, but the boss music is so monotonous. If there were some more layers to it other than the constant thumping noise and the synthesiser it probably would be a lot cooler, but compared to the likes of Thunder Force 4 it's flat and pretty boring.
I'm impressed by the designs, they look a lot like Cambrian animals. The developers knew their animal biology well. Also the last couple of levels are literally the same kind of computer chips they had to assemble to make the game's hardware, the entire thing is tech and biology nerds making a game about things they love.
This is less impressive now that I see it's all been done with the auto aim weapon. If it were done with literally any other power up, it would've been a far more impressive run.
I wonder if Jaleco was inspired by this when they created the arcade title Chimera Beast they look so simlar. That might be the only game I know where you only see the staff if you you get the Bad End but it is the hardest ending to get so dont that make it the good ending?

Sounds like B.O.W.s (Bioweapons or Bio Organic Weapons)
Pretty sure the giant aircraft carrier was infected by bio aliens to uses it as a bio weapon
Imagine sitting in on a meeting and everyone voting for this boss music… saying “yep. That’s the one.”
I had to mute most of it cause I couldn't concentrate on the video, it was driving me crazy😂

Crying ~Aseimei Sensou~ (Sub-Life/Species War) to be more precise
Imagine a new videogame, even of a different genre, based on this universe, with this atmosphere and sound design
Metroid Fusion and Dread
@@samuelpounds1475 or B.O.W.
wow
I've never heard a soundtrack this fitting for a game, seriously it just fits with most of the game it's crazy to think about.

When the best way to fight alien beasts is with other alien beasts.
Wow you get to play as a creature!? Cool!
Uh, nice. Gives me some Abadox-vibes.
That green ship at the start looks cool.
this game looks pretty cool... but what in the WORLD is that boss music
I feel so bad for the third boss, that lil dude just wants to have fun and cover himself in slime, and then us big bullies just invade his home and kill him :((
uuuuhhhh excuse me but that giant ship is infected
God damn the player is good
This bio surreal game is weird... I'm really liking the eerie music and design, it reminds me of axiom verge
Great graphics aside, the bass in the level 2 and 6 is awesome.
El armored bug es una crisálida de una larva de mosquito
Used to be able to do 4-5 runthroughs on one credit on hardest setting. Now I can barely get past the drop stage.
I used to repeat this game until I 1CC'd with all the ships, lol
Just letting everyone know that this is only a dollar on steam!

Que música chata! Rsrs barulho de Atari ..o jogo parece ser muito bom mas o som ...... Te contar viu
Bio-hazard?
Hm?
I don't suppose this has anything to do with Resident Evil.
It just is a biological condition that is a hazard to humans / environment
@@L2Nuku I say that, cause Resident Evil is known as "Bio-hazard" in Japan.
@@HollywoodLego i know, too many think it's only the name of that game, while the word existed long before that 😄
@@L2Nuku Yeah. I'm just making a joke. 😉

It's head and neck are kinda similar like Beast Taka from contra 3
This boss music sure is... something.
It’s like someone heard the Blaster Master boss intro sound and went “yooooooooo”
I like it in its own way, its quite fitting for mutated bioweapons.

Well it represents a corrupted machine, probably the one that destroyed the world to begin with.
Whoa so an infected airship huh? creative.
The stingray boss was supposed to be a 5th secret playable ship in a beta version of the game. The idea was scrapped and was instead used as a boss
Was it gonna be that big?!
@@kgblagden lol. No silly. It was just the size of player ships. Just a different palate and a different name (Dragon-bio)

A retro Giger-y shmup where YOU play an awesome monster thing too? I think I've found the perfect video game.
That boss theme sounds like something straight out of a horror game.
Oof I loved this game, the soundtrack is pure art
"Echo the Dolphin" meets "Resident Evil"! Love it!
@Keith Courage RX-78-2 yep, really is
Crossover universe is born
It's game like these that make me love your channel. Keep up the great content!
Es algo extraño escuchar el nombre porque resident evil también tiene ese nombre en Japón
So... would this be Ecco the Dolphin's space cousin?

oh i get it, a Gradius but instead of spaceships are flying creatures, yay xD
Good job, classic Genesis/Mega Drive title, i did a longplay a while ago with the same ship (has the best combination of weapons imo)
Very impressive job.
My bro would approve of your taste in ship and weapon.
I would too
BASS.
Yes more retro spooky bosses
Обожаю эту игру👍игра из моего детства💖

Sounds disturbing

One of the MD shmups with a pretty manageable difficulty.
useless trivia: many of the game sprites were created from raytraced/prerendered graphics
Thank you so much for sharing these. I've been enjoying the heck outta them. So much wild creativity in each one.
The next B.O.W.s (Bio Organic Weapons) in non RE universe
That intro go hard👍
It's kind remind of sea ray storm actually dope.
Thanks for this video. I never knew what the names or designations were.
One of the best, soooo SEGA!
japanese shmups are freaking insane man
I love this game.
B.O.W. Vs B.O.W.
very interesting sound design on this one
