I've been following this for a while and I think its pretty well made. Its a new Genesis/Mega Drive game which has been coded entirely in assembly like the officially released games were while the console was officially supported.

So what does /vr/ think of this game?

i'm sorry, but why wouldn't it be coded in assembly?

>> No.3616296

kinda bland lookin. would have to try it out

we are not allowed to discuss games that were not actually made a long time ago on this forum, even if they were made to imitate those long ago games and have similar gameplay, graphics, etc.

this forum is not for talking about games that feel retro and comparing them to retro games. it is only for old fat men to talk about how they still play with the same toys today they did when they were 9. threads like this will be deleted by the mods and you will be forced to sign an affidavit that you did not actually enjoy playing Tanglewood before you will be allowed to post here again.

Some games have been written for it in C and Visual Basic, its actually becoming more common as compilers get better

That looks generic, slow and boring as fuck. I'm all for making new games on old hardware, but had it been released in 1995 it looks like the kind of game that would be laughed at even then.

Because it could have been done easier, faster, and probably better, in C.
Because finding people who can write a game in C is much easier than finding people who can write one in 68k asm.

List one Genesis/MD game ever written in VB.

>>3616942
Very slow and boring. So linear but full of backtracking. Repetitive as fuck. Happy to see people making new games but would be much happier if they were games people would play.

wheres the fun in this genesis game? Walking simulators only work on current gen.

Its not visual basic, just basic. I stand corrected.
Try Papi Commando. Or if you wanna try the worst game ever, look up Crazy Bus.

I was thinking Windows forms on a Megadrive would look insane.

No it's not, it's mostly just empty space and the same textures repeated a lot. It doesn't even look all that good compared to other Genesis games.

Should have clarified. Real game, not homespew. Thousands of 2600 "games" were written in basic if you count every turd squeezed out in batari basic.

Well it's made for Genesis so at least they got the audience right.

Looks like something that is trying to get praise solely for its presentation but isn't interesting enough when it comes to graphics, sound, music, animation, art style, or music to warrant it.
