/vr/ - Retro Games

I hate that entire game. I think it gets praised for the Treasure name alone.

>>768508
very possible, I only tried playing it because it's Treasure.. and I can't get past this cat - it just seems ugh..

>>768180
After he charges and jumps around everywhere, just hit him with a headbut.

The damn boss only takes 2 hits for the western release, stop being bad at it.

>>768514
im playing the japanese verson, it hit him again and again and again and I have no idea

>>768520
Are you playing it translated because of the story?

The game is really not that hard for the japanese, aside from that fucking baby face boss.

I think the akuma boss takes 3 more hits than the western release

>>768524
I didnt know there was an english release

Bait, surely.
It has to be.

For a fan of the game, i find it good someone translated it, because the game makes much more sense when you read the story.

>>768534
Very much so.
90% of the dialogue is removed (the training levels and heather saying there's no keymaster after Illegal Weapon 2), Maruyama looks like a cat and is brown, the Wonderland boss is made a touch harder, and the ending is changed a slight to make fun of Headdy.

The English translation ROM is the best way to experience the game.

>>768543
okay thanks very much both of you but I'll still suck too much to beat this fucking cat, I guess I could use savestates so I don't have to sit through the intro every time

>>768543
Never managed to patch it on my own. Do you have the patched rom you could share?

>>768180
Posts like this are contributing to my loss of faith in humanity.
I figured it out at 8 playing the pal version, so you're either a troll or someone who should use his brain more, much more.
This game is better then gunstar heroes

I'm sorry but he is NOT dying, I have gone around this loop at least 20 times hitting him about 5x each one

>>768508
>>768513
Stop being garbage

its the first fucking stage in the game

and this is the jap version there is no excuse

>>768645
You should only hit them when he is out of breath (he should bob his head up and down and should be his normal color)
If you did it correctly, he should flinch back with the hit.

>>768645
hes not getting hurt after he runs into the wall. you have to jump a bit and hit his head when hes catching his breath to take damage.

>>768561
You're hitting him when he's recovering, and his head it bobbing up and down right? If you try to hit him while he's glowing, you wont do any damage at all. Also, he's a bear, not a cat.

Honestly man, he's not hard.

>>768653
oh I was hitting him when he was invincible then

the game makes the same sounds whenever and there's no health bar

Can't wait for OP to get Stair Wars

oh man the pain

>>768672
Maruyama is an exception, all the other end-level bosses have healthbars. Also, attacks that do no damage make a plink sound, and ones that do make a completely different one.

>>768672
He clearly makes a different reaction when you hit him right and a clank invincible sound when not.

>>768675
Never understood how you call the boss to come to you. You just wait for him? is it random?

cheers guys, got it

but I can tellt his isn't a game I'm going to enjoy

too difficult/I can't into guessing

>>768508
You can't be serious. It's my favorite Treasure game.

this is crazy

>>768679
it's random

>>768681
oh boy, just wait until the game actually gets hard

>>768710
TARGETOH

Twin Freaks

>>768726
That's usually where I hit the wall.

I think ill give up here, it's gone 3D and i can never hit him

Look at his shadow you turd.

>>768726
>Implying he'll even get past the Angry Gatekeeper

>>768679
>>768679
Its not

You can manipulate him to ramming into him all the time. But its so fucking hard to do its like TAS tier shit.

Basically there has been theories that Trouble Bruin will ram you if you are horizontally level with him at a certain point in his animation.

The problem is that we don't know which part. I've tired this and he has rammed into me more but its not consistent. I'm trying so hard to mess with this so I get a better speedrun time but to no avail atm.

>>768740
You're clearly fucking trolling.
But for the sake of argument
Align your shadow to his, jump, shoot.

>>768740
Some advice. The boss you come up against with the top hat? Alternate your attacks between the two as best you can. Trust me, makes it a lot easier. Beat one, the other goes berserk. They both have the same amount of health so alternating hits means you can quickly destroy the other.

>>768752
Nobody gets past Angry Gatekeeper easily. She'll turn anyone who doesn't know how she works into a fine paste in a very short frame of time in tune to one of the most awesome boss themes of the era.

So, is the strategy jump and headbut up, or just headbut up?

Favorite song of the game has got to be this.

She aims for your head, so whatever works personally. Fastest way to end her is with a well-timed bomb head, but what's the fun in that?

Even so she's pretty fucking difficult.

>>768801
Stay away from boss in general. When she has a crosshair on you, throw your head around. She targets your head, not your body. But your head doesn't take damage, your body DOES. If you make her shoot a claw off-screen you get a number of things like a Headcase of Beau.

Basically don't hit her until the face is clearly exposed.

>>768813
>>768825
....the boss is a she

oh...

>>768829
It depends. Japanese version is a geisha. Otherwise it's just a regular looking robot thing.

>>768848
Ah

I had the American one.

I personally like the challenge in it more. Though getting rid of the dialouge and having bad movie puns was a dumb choice.

If someone could patch the translated Jap dialogue into the English version with the difficulty in tact; I would love that so much.

>>768829
Pretty much every boss in DH is female.

>>768879
baby face, twin freaks, dark demon and trouble bruin don't seem female to me

>>768645
OP, are you, literally, retarded?

>>768909
check your manual

>I can't metroid crawl!

>>768508
Play the Japanese version, it's great. American version fucked up ramping up the difficulty on an already hard game, and it just has clunkier aesthetics in general.

There is some amazing content in this game, though I have to admit in terms of overall flow it's not as good as Gunstar Heroes or even Alien Soldier. Feels a little too scripted.
