Why do people obsess over the fact that the saturn didn’t have a collectathon platformer? It did have 3d platformers and a very strong one at that in burning rangers.

I think it's actually a good thing, though bug too! and ninpenmaru are close if not collectathons themselves, so.... Whatever.

Burning Rangers is a short techdemo with little replay value and really bad controls. It has an amazing theme and then the game is mostly ambient noise during gameplay.

The bosses are the best parts and they are over super fast. I do think it could have been reworked into a decent 3D MegaMan style game.

The game you are looking for is Willy Wombat.

The controls are fine though occasionally the camera spazzes out but you can control it, the only real issue is it is short but the randomizer helps a ton. It feels like it should have been an arcade game

>really bad controls
Are they actually bad or is this coming from someone who thinks tank controls suck? I kinda want to play it if it's short but great

They’re fine, they can be slippery on one section but that’s it. You have full camera control too

Burning Rangers isn't a strong platformer. You can finish it in an afternoon, if you can get your head around the shit controls and camera.

Have you played Sonic Adventure? BR basically suffers from the same issues.

I hate SA1, but i wouldn't say the controls were what made it shit.

I actually beat it.
It wasn't particularly difficult other than running so badly that it's hard to do the reaction backflip to escape explosions. The pop-in is horrendous and the final boss is easy. The Sonic "health" system with the crystals is retarded, too.

Fuck croc, fuck that gay penguin game, fuck all of the cope. Willy the wombat. That's it. The final word in Saturn 3d platformers. Throw all that other shit in the trash and play the confirmed good one that youtubers and reddit don't pretend to enjoy

Burning Rangers is literally a game about collecting 10 crystals so you can collect humans you find lying around.

This game's issue is that what you do simply isn't fun, no matter how good or bad the playability. You run around collect shit in random places that isn't satisfying to get to and literally shoot flames, then gen "rewarded" with repetitive cutscenes. The only thing it's worth remembering for is that it had auto jump before OoT
