GBA game (shmup), completed in 2004 but never released by the publisher, just recently put up for download as a freeware rom. It's worth a look, anyway.

Meh, shmups...
Are those the vertical-scrolling airplane games, or is it any kind of 2D shooter? If it's the latter, I'll consider giving it a look.

Horizontal scrolling. And you have a healthbar, it's not one hit you die.
It's okay... not amazing, but decent if you like the genre. The script (it has a story) is intentionally sillily writen... :)

So what I have to dig up an inaccurate emulation of a system the game wasn't even released on to play it on my PC? Pass...

Other freeware GBC/A games (that were actually supposed to be retail products):
Daikatana GBC (actually better than the FPS? Perhaps! Finished game.) http://www.streamload.com/theromero/daik...nglish.zip (from http://www.rome.ro/games_daikatana.htm ) Tyrian GBC (It is just about complete, just unpublished. Tyrian was one of the best DOS shmups of the early '90s (it was that and Raptor... I liked Raptor more, but Tyrian is great), and the GBC port is definitely worth a try, even if the PC version is better and is freeware too) Tyrian GBA (not as far along... no sound, for instance. Looks better though, obviously.) http://www.freewebs.com/worldtreegames/ (both versions available for download there, along with the DOS version) Emulator: http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/gba...vance.html |
