So what's the deal with Virtual Hydlide? Is it really as

>>3207323
As bad as who say? If anything, the game is over rated. I like it though.

Just bits I've heard around the Internet. Nothing specific really. I've watched videos on it and it looks pretty crazy, but I'm a sucker for princesses in distress.

The running animation makes your character look like a fucking dork.

That's the most notable part of VH for me.

I think he looks like a dork regardless of the running animation.

I like it. It's good for a procedurally generated 3D interpretation of Hydlide that you can theoretically sit down and beat in a single sitting, unless it happens to generate fuck hard which it sometimes does.

Worth playing for its engine - really neat what they did with it.

So you guys find the game actually fun to play? Is there much story to it?

>>3207860
Nope. Basically none. I think that's where a lot of people get disappointed by it it's more like a roguelite.

Haven't played, but just watched a short gameplay video and doesn't look really that bad. besdes the hideous framerate. Unless the controls are a mess It actually looks fun, and I'm tempted to play it, but I'm a sucker for simple and short games like this. The whole random generated map thing looks neat, it probably could give it a high replayability value if done properly.

This is the only thing you need to know about the game

You can be gay, just don't be a fag.

You guys are making it sound pretty good

It's fairly okay it's just that the animations and collision detection are kinda iffy. I've actually played it quite a bit more than some other much more valuable Saturn games I own. Mainly for its pick-up-and-play appeal, shortness and replayability.

I just don't understand what makes this hydlide any more or less virtual than the previous ones.

OP here. Thanks for the feedback. I did pick up a copy for a decent price. Really looking forward to those 5 fps!

5 FPS. 5 FPS! You heard right kids, 5 FPS!

You see it all the time with the other guys these days. They're all saying "20 FPS!" and "30 FPS!" and "Check this out guys, 60 FPS!". What do those chucksters think they're playing? Sure, you're getting all those frames, but they're so watered down they hardly even constitute a meal. Only with 'Virtual Hydlide' will you see real frames. Meaty frames! Manly frames. The kind of frames that you deserve. That's why it takes just 5 FPS of 'Virtual Hydlide' to make a great game, because at Atlus, we know it's about quality over quantity. Pick up 'Virtual Hydlide' now, and remember to stay hungry.
