Can we talk about how uncommonly pretty this game was? For the time, but also the platforms it came out on. The art was just top notch.

>>	Anonymous Sun Oct 11 01:40:46 2015 No.2731483 Looks way to good for a Mega Drive game. They also made Lomax, so if you are into pretty pixel art, check out that game.

>>	Anonymous Sun Oct 11 01:47:23 2015 No.2731498 >>2731483 No kidding, almost seems like it would have made more sense on 32x or Saturn for the expanded color palette.

Alright I'm done. Really insanely pretty game though, considering it was on the pc engine, which wasn't even properly 16 bit. It did have a much larger color palette than the megadrive however which explains a bit.
