Umihara thread?

So I got around to reading the Umihara manga and it's almost completely unrelated to the game, except for the looks of the main character and her being able to use a lure that stuns.

Her name also seems to be written 海原 instead of the usual 海腹 (both read the same way, though). First name is unchanged.

In the manga Umihara seems to possess some power to breath underwater, and this is why she is targeted by some evil organization that also has captured her grandfather IIRC.

Problem is, the magazine it was serialized in got canceled altogether just after the Umihara manga had got 8 chapters. Only 6 of these are in the Tankoubon which I have.

I'd like to read the remaining 2 chapters, but I have no clue as how to get them.

I'm still playing the SNES game. I haven't gotten to a single ending yet. How do the other games compare to the first?

Tangentially related, but how similar is Bionic Commando to this series in terms of tether physics? Tried the first a long time ago but couldn't get into it, but I'm thinking of giving it another shot.

>>2818606
Not him but I've been wanting to hang out in a retro anime stream for a while - lots of classics out there I haven't watched yet. What time are you thinking of streaming and what shows?

I was thinking like... 8PM to 12PM EST every Saturday.

As for shows? I was thinking mostly OVA's like Devilman, 8-Man After, Alita, etc.

TV series from the 90's are cool and all, but pretty much everyone has already seen Sakura, Slayers, Rayearth, etc. so not much point in streaming those.

I've only completed the SFC one, but the other two have a real different feel to me and seem really good so far. They seem to emphasize the platforming part a lot more, whereas the first game prefers to shit out random spawns nonstop. I'd definitely try Shun once you're ready, but Sayonara feels surprisingly great to me too.

It's not really a mousepad, but some sort of general desk pad/coaster-like thing (it said 下敷き on the shop I bought it at). But it could probably be used as a mousepad, except it's only the plastic part and no soft rubbery/foamy material underneat. I kind of don't want to scratch it though because it's got a glossy finish.

Bionic Commando is incredibly simplistic in comparison. You swing the exact same way every time, the only thing that matters is where you attached the hook. Much easier and also less rewarding once you get good at it. It's a great game too though, just gotta get used to it. Ninja Five-0 on the GBA has more interesting grappling hook physics.

This. They should have either released the whole entire trilogy in a single package, or spaced them out to a full year (3 to 4 months between each game)

Also, I honestly never liked Shun as much as the SFC game. It's the weakest of the three.

What don't you like about it? I started emulating the first game sometime in 2014 and I've only recently played Shun and Sayonara for the first time.

I personally see Sayonara as the weakest because the physics feel too easy in some areas(wall climbing, general slinging) and some techniques are almost gone(rocket jumps).

Granted the game is built around these changes it just feels overall easier and more loose; losing that original "git gud" feeling the other two give. Especially with the new field select instead of the traditional survivor mode being default.

Although causally I'd say it's the best because of all those changes plus the characters, costumes, and all the extras it gives you.

The SFC/Shun wall scaling is the one thing I will never miss. It's honestly too sluggish and difficult to the point where you'd want to avoid it like the plague during runs. In Sayonara it's so enjoyable and easy because of how high you can fling yourself.

>—How did you originally come up with the fishing lure mechanic?

>Kondo: Our programmar Sakai had come to the realization back then that “to make an interesting game, its important to make a prototype.” So he went about making all manner of different demos, and Umihara Kawase came about from one of those. The system we made the demos for was the X68000, and even today I can remember the first time he showed it to me.

That's awesome

I'm looking into the Umihara Kawase Shun level format right now and I've already figured out the physical tile attributes and now I'm figuring out the level geometry.

The parent company Agatsuma will carry on with (literally) enquires regarding the software that Agatsuma Entertainment has sold.

I think this means, but I can't be certain, that at the very least sales of the steam and e-shop versions will continue, and that they will accept complaints and such from customers.

I don't know what it means for future developments of games, though.

Essentially it's Agatsuma closing down it's subsidiary due to worsening conditions of management (or so it says). One can only hope that the parent company will continue with the games somehow.

Phew... that was hard. Hopefully it's at least 10% better than the nonsense Google Translate would've spewed out, but I feel this was slightly above my level as a translator and my level of understanding in parts. In particular the press release was difficult. If some uber-1337 level translator wants to correct me please do.

the SFC game art doesn't even have that large tits (or at least they're hidden). her bustiness only really became apparent with the PSX game.
