haven't played it but it should be a red flag from now on when you see stuff like in the title screen, with its kinetic demoscene type visuals. honestly looks cool but euros are better at glorified screensavers than they are at gameplay

Just played a bit of it, it looks very nice. but gameplay is not very fun.
slap slap slap slap slap slap slap slap slap about sums it up.

Its not like SOR2 where you change tactics to keep fights interesting, I got so bored that I had to resort to turning on auto fire for punch.
and throwing enemies looks terrible, I guess Fonz couldn't make it look good with sprites this big?

All in all I'd give it a 7 out of 10, presentation wise its really good. and seems to have quite some hidden stuff like routes?
I hope this megawire thing allows for updates because it could benefit from some tidying up.

All in all I didn't hate my experience, still feel that Fonzie is a terrible business man who needs to focus just on coding and let other better qualified people do the rest.

Non. Shitty sound effects. Lame character design. Choppy animation. Kusoge style gameplay. Bland backgrounds. And lots of cringe to keep all this crap glued together. Fonzie is a minus man with zero talent. The thing to do from now on, is to completely ignore his extravagant antics. Let him go broke. So his future job will be in gay porn.

Just finished the game with Dice, the final boss battle was a huge letdown.
Imagine Rugal from KOF98 with a robot arm and Santa hair/beard. and his super attack is an uppercut that is clearly traced from another game.
so you're fighting him and it just feels like the game is struggling, there's clearly slowdown going on and you find yourself just avoiding his slow super uppercuts while you pummel him when he lands.

Then when you've defeated him you see him walking back to the window with a pose clearly traced from the KOF2000 K' intro. (hands in pockets oh I'm a Nip and soooo emo cool)

Then Dice kicks him out of the window and apparently pulls a throne out of his ass and becomes the boss.

Then you get "THE END?"

(and Dice is then shown on the character select sitting in a throne)

So now I gotta play through this slow motion madness two more times with the other characters before I get to see the real ending.

Paprium looks amazing in pictures but just fails to deliver a fun experience when you actually play it.
this would have been better as an OpenBOR mod on Steam with a crt filter.

Also the police station has very dubious palette choices going on for the enemies, everybody was brown (wait a minute..)

I've heard Arcade mode is shit, and that you instead should focus on Original Mode. That's where you get the other endings, unlock characters, can take different paths and play the remaining of the 24 stages.

Pretty much. It's good for showing you the ropes but after playing it to completion twice I have no reason to go back. Orginal mode however is quick fun with a bunch of different(+ secret) paths and new bosses. Not sure how many you can unlock but I have discovered one new playable character so far.
