Thin your paints, get a dark (black/brown) wash to pull out the details and hide the raw plastic look your treads have. And most importantly, thin your paints.
You might be able to strip it and clean it up if you want, but keeping it around to look at how much you've progressed is fun too.

You haven't really beaten a metal slug game until you've beaten it with just one quarter.

Most of the fun from Metal Slug comes from playing it again and again honing your skills to overcome the obstacles set before you.

It's not like some games, for example in MS3 I think the only bullshit part where you can get into a situation where dying is impossible to avoid is if you get unlucky against stage 4's boss. The game's are hard but fair in general.
1CCs are super difficult, but the infinite continues in the anthologies and ports kind of suck the fun out too. I sometimes wish there'd be a medium

Tarma shares the same model as Marco. Ralf is basically Marco with a recolored Eri's bandanna. Granted the pigtails are a bit weird, but there's only so much you can do with pixel art. Trevor had a unique scream, but some bug caused Marco and Trevor to switch death screams in-game.

Because it was a rushed piece of shit
The final boss was originally the possessed guy on top of a large magical contraption in the middle of a cataclysmic cyclone tearing up the city around you

Actually I expect the scythe demon was part of it too, similar to how 3 was a multi boss/ multi area slog to the end, the demon probably would have been fought anyways after the cult leader was taken out

>>379570669
I actually liked them taking the g-man guy and giving him a role in the story. He's instantly familiar to anyone who played the games since he always shows up in the background in some fashion, so it's like 'Holy shit, he was up to no good this entire time!'

Also, I like how SNK ran with the implication of 4's ending scene, with Amadeus having a dead man switch that uploaded some mystery data somewhere, but in 5 it's pretty clear that it was all his robotic and weapons tech, leaked to the black market as a final fuck you to the world. Notice how from 5 and onward not just Morden, but basically every antagonist group has mechs and super advanced arms and vehicles that are better than what you fought in past games.

>>379577892
>so it's like 'Holy shit, he was up to no good this entire time!'
Except they explicitly state it's a different guy.

LOOK at that pixel art. And people wonder why indie devs are hated so much.

>>379582671
it's bad or it's good? I'm receiving mixed signals here?

>>379564190
So, do you guys think Metal slug formula just run out? What would it take for Metal Slug to have an exciting sequel after so many samey installments?

>>379582759
It's great. This is what good pixel art looks like, not the ones we are seeing today from indie devs.

Well the anniversary title was a tower defense game so...

>>379582832

The detail on these. Nothing can compare. They seriously loved what they were doing. comapre it to games liek risk of rain or undertale and it's simply sad how much the quality and effort on pixel art has dropped

The Metal Slug Formula has BARELY been explored to it's fullest. 1-3 showcased HOW each mission should be done and what requirements they need to be GOOD while 4-7 weren't as good because of the lack of understanding and/or effort.

Each mission has to be exciting, in short. Exciting and PLAY WELL. You can tell the devs watched a bunch of action movies for inspiration on what the missions should be. Nothing's tired out, it's just that everyone else is missing the mark completely and have given up because they're unimaginative losers.

Comparing indies to SNK in their prime is kind of pointless. No shit one is better.

>>379583263
it's like comparing My moms cooking to your moms cooking.
I understand.

I think one of the elements that were lost in the later sequels was that ability to tell a story/journey between the levels with no exposition at all, or at least a fun one.

Metal slug 3 was such wild ride a with its zombies, aliens and shit. And teaming up with the sandnigger nazis was so fucking hype. Don't remember anything that compelling in any of the latter games.

I don't mind if nothing can ever come as close to that final level's jaw-dropping glory, I just want some god damned IMAGINATION again. I don't want to JUST fight the same ol' same ol' ALL THE TIME.

Make them different somehow, give Morden's soldiers NEW weapons or ways to stop me. Give me MORE than just Morden's soldiers too, and not just human dudes wearing something different I want some mutated shits as a result of the mars people experimenting or just other supernatural enemies like demons or more cool-looking mechs, more transformations- You can take it easy with the weapons, but give me some IMAGINATIVE slugs again, gimme more animal slugs. You don't HAVE to play it "safe", Metal Slug's goofy as hell don't be afraid to get silly and then a little more serious at the end for a climactic finale.

Is there anything more broken?

Anyone wanna play MSX on Fightcade?

LOOK AT THIS TURTLE. Free idea right there, cute as hell, no one goes for it. It always felt like every dev after the originals always have to "respect the franchise" by being bland as fuck instead of trying to understand what the original devs were thinking.

>>379584630
It's way too late, man.
