Well, back from horrible work. You know, I was borderline homeless through much of the nineties (at some points, actually homeless) and the early two thousands, right when games like this were out, and selling cheap.

Now that I have (some) money, guns, cars, and power, everything costs stupid money.

I remember seeing Shantae in Toys R Expensive when I had all of six dollars to my name. I went with a friend to help her pick out decent toys for boys for a charity gift drive. Beh.

They are right. All their games are derivative of other games, with their more recent ones being obvious throwbacks to NES era games, an era when Nintendo wasn't a fucking joke. They have to mask their bland games with "graffix" and pretty overdone music, and some crude depictions of what "sexy" is.

So, as far as emulation goes-
I've got an i5 and like 16g ram, I can Force it to throttle at 98-100% and much faster, even though left to its own devices it holds at 60%. There's a frame skip or two on VBA-M, but for the most part it's okay, I can get around the speed.

The issue I run into is Sprite layers- either the info bar is onscreen, or Shantae/enemies/pickups are. Never both at once. I've tried all 4? video plugins included, tweaking with settings, etc- anyone have a pre-setup config they'd like to share? I'm puzzling over this, and while I do like a good puzzle, I'd really rather play the game.

I played it through. The shmup part was forgettable - you had 4-5 random levels per world, and random battles involved you warping onto them. They played until you shot down x enemies. It got EXTREMELY repetitive as you can guess, but even worse, the entire shmup part was a VERY basic shooting game. You could collect different weaponry in the adventure field but that was it. Also, you piloted 3-4 different ships which were randomly chosen, and some of them were just so junk that you barely had a fighting chance.

I recall most bosses were also fought in the shmup parts, and unless you had decent weapons/levels, they were near impossible.

The storyline was okay-ish.

Mediocre title all in all. Matt Bozons art is practically the only reason why anyone would care about the game, because it has nothing else special going on for it.
