Damn I love me some old flash nostalgia. You should check out Afroninja's Escape From Camp Crystal Lake and his An Escape Series if you want more stuff in line with the Nightmare on Elm Street one.
Escape From Camp Crystal Lake was made years after the Elm Street one and has better art but its about as illogical.
I also highly recommend the shitfest called Resident Evil: Freedom.
Feels on the thumbnail pain.
It *is* possible to actually upload all of the images at full size, but you need to do it all in one shot and have them arranged ahead of time. This turned out too difficult for what I was trying to do so I need to sit on my hands and wait.
Were you thinking about doing Exmortis at some point? I had my eye on that one but I need to get the OFF LP done before I open up new projects.
I had quite few Flash games planned. Exmortis and camp was on the table for later.
Resident Evil: Freedom while I didn't plan to at first, turns out I have played that game many many many moons ago. It's one of those games you repressed as it doesn't stick out too much, but once you see it in action the memories all come flooding back.
There a lot of flash games I want to cover, mostly old jank ones, and newer ones made well past the golden days of newgrounds and flash.
Such as a new one I found called(and I fucking kid you not here) Resident Evil Ebola. That uses sprites, and backgrounds from metal slug games. Mind you this game was made in 2016 and is a 4 part-er. Part 2 came out in 2020, while 3 and 4 both came out in 2021.
While I don't know when my next flash game post will be, or what game. I will say reliving playing old jank flash games have been fun.
(Like all games on NewGrounds I use the NewGrounds player to play it. As it supports later flash games that Ruffles doesn't)
I want to start with by saying this game was uploaded on.
I had to search newgrounds to find this game as It's been well over a 15 years or more since I last seen this game.
It's that kind of game you play as a kid, don't get the joke, and just forget about till you see the image of it on newgrounds.
(please note I don't get the ending in this video)
The start menu plays low rider.
I like this song enough to link you guys to it.
Just play on easy it's not worth to try on medium or hard.
I'm not going to transcribe any of this text this time around as while it still small it should be easier to see now that the game isn't trying to make it super hard to read.
Oh and Jesus Christ this game is based for coming out in 2005. Really does hit harder now that he has been metoo'ed so hard.
Yeah yeah laugh all you want, Chuckles unironically uses Wikapedia.
The game is simple. 1 of 3 types of people come back. We press z to hold out pudding to lure them.
Then when they eat it we press x to.
The girl is the only one worth killing while she can give a tiny amount of money or none, she has a better chance of giving a good amount. It is random of the 3 types that will walk by.
The girl comes from the bottom left.
The other 2 100% not worth it.
Stopping any of them costs 1 pudding and killing costs 1 point in the camera.
Once we murder a chick we can go to the "Cosby cave".
And dump the body.
Urkel and the gnome are things you can sell if you click them. They also give a random amount of money Urkel giving more. But it's just more RNG.
This guy pops up in the corner when you sell them .
For the sake of the LP I'll show and kill the other 2 types of people as well.
This one comes from the middle left.
This man walks in from the top right.
You hate to see this dirt poor ones.
You might be wondering how do we get more pudding and camera points?
We go to the city which plays this wonderful clip.
After 10 bodies this message will pop up. It's a lie till you have 11 or more bodies in the hole.
Trying to buy a shovel at 10 is a waste of money.
At 15 bodies the police arrest you if you don't make the hole deeper.
At about 20 or so is when you need to buy the shovel a second time, this time for 40 dollars. Which I think gives you 20 or more spots in the hole at that point.
Here what fucking up looks like.
You have to exit the cave to get arrested.
I never had 100 bucks to bribe so No idea, nor do I care enough to grind for it. So let's suicide.
You might be asking well okay How do you win then?
Simple, Remember that phone in the cave I never mentioned yet?
if you click it, it says.
Get 26 or more bodies, and 100 cash and click it gives you.
I hope you enjoyed this short and simple flash game. Next on my list is to start my first play through of countdown vamp in over 6 years.
I first found this game well over ten years ago when looking through the horror games on Ps1. I wanted to try it as I feel like calling every Survival horror game a RE clone doesn't do a game justice. While this game isn't full on RE clone, you can feel it was apeing RE hard at times. There even a Bootleg Hunter in this game.
It does help explain some of the hidden stuff, even if the poster wasn't fully sure of it all. But I will be using the info myself. So credit where credit is due.
Like the connection this game has to a Japan only FMV adventure game. R?MJ: The Mystery Hospital. Yes that is seriously the name of the game. (Side note: according to Kimimi The R and the ? are silent, So make sure you are pronouncing this game as Em Jay) Misato is a women we will meet a a hand full of times in Countdown Vampires, and is centeral to the plot. I have never played Em Jay, nor has the person on gamefaq played it, so yeah, no idea if Countdown Vampires is a sequel, or it's just a fun little reusing of a character.
Another fun little fact is The dev team that made em jay is System Sacom who also worked on Deep Fear. I had no clue when putting these two games up that the same dev team did both.
Something to note is The dev team for Countdown Vampire is listed as K2 LLC so who knows if it was a name change.
I was going to use the Manuel but it's pretty bland, and I am not sure if the only scan of it is bad, or if it seriously looks this bad but.
I might as well cover the intro in full, so if you have Watched the little teaser video I did for all the games you can easily skip this part.
One Thing I want to mention is this.
I laugh every time I see this stupid warning. Got to make sure the kids don't go around acting like nic cage in vampire kiss.
This is a very RE intro teaser IMO. And the gun shot into the title screen. PERFECTO.
Mmmm this old ps1 start screen. God I miss these simple start screens.
I also want to clear a bit of a misconception AVGN has did.
I can't blame him, I wouldn't even known if it wasn't for the Gamefaq thread, but the vampires act like that because of the moon color, not because of difficulty. Yes Seriously the color of the moon in game changes how the "vampires" act. But what I can confirm from my own testing, is that easy mode gives you a ton more ammo for your guns. For example 30 Handgun ammo spot in normal, gives you 45 in easy. Not that you would need it as the game already gives you too much ammo 1/4 into the game on normal. By the end like the AVGN I was swimming in more ammo then a 20th Newgame+ RE4 player.
The game also asks you to input and first and a last name this is purely cosmetic in English version, but the Japanese version this is how you would enter cheats.
I'm just going to input a shout out to a far better LP/LPer.
Blood type according to the gamefaq post determines the starting moon, and may or may not change what color the moon will cycle between over the course of the game. Fun right? Hidden mechanics the game never explains to you, but affects how a type of enemy will behavior.
of course I have to go O, because it looks like a 0, and sargon has 0 tolerance for anything but becoming the champion of reborn.
Who is he even telling this to?
This whole place has the same vibes as the bar from dusk till dawn.
You know minus the PUSSY PUSSY PUSSY part.
I see Aerith from the ff7 remake also showed up to this party 20 years before the remake.
They even have Jason Voorhees as a bartender.
And his cousin
Vason Boorhees doing the job as a poker dealer.
I want to hear the music on this next little part.
Doesn't it kind of sound like the intro winding down and gameplay about to start?
Well it doesn't, the intro picks up again with more shots of people.
We also get our first look at a character you will only see once after this opening.
A cat that NEVER SHOWS UP AGAIN.
Mind you a cat who seems to be having a nasty case of pink eye.
Again this cat never shows up again.
Funny thing is this van shows up again, none of these guys do.
both of these chuckle nuts only show up in NewGame+ ( I will cover that when I beat the game, and have a post to the few changes it does.)
I love this doofy face Kieth does when he hears people shouting about the fire.
"Duuuur fire?, but my name is Kieth."
One hell of a fire somehow got set by the stage dances way up top.
And they use "Black water" to put it out.
uh oh what this black stuff going to do to the two dancers?
Why they start shaking it.
AVGN is right, it looks like they got shit on, and look like a bootleg of the vampires from dust till dawn.
Followed by the dancer jumping down killing a guy and
In the a panic, the most pathetic escape attempt happens. Check this shit out.
He fucking trips right before the tiny baby stairs and dies on the spot.
We all know what really happened here.
Even poor old jason dies.
And a man asks a question very quietly, that we all have been thinking.
You mind speaking up some? Can't hear you over the sounds of people dying.
Followed by Keith sounding like BLM propaganda
That's what you want to hear a cop say right? It gets better here the full clip.
Hey Remember that black water that they used to put out the fire? Turns out if you put a fire to it. IT CHANGES TO WHITE WATER THAT CURES THE VAMPIRES.
We also get to see the black guard be the most competent person in this intro.
Look at him go, Mind you when we try to use the tranq gun like him it takes us a million shots, where he only needs one.
I fucking love this man look what he does next.
This reminds me of the Spoony review of that god awful ring game.
Keith calmly asks
The vampire gets back up when Keith trys to get his stolen gun, and the black guard saves us again shooting her into the Oreo Cream filling while shouting.
Fun Fact the gun is missing now, Keith never gets that one back. But we do find a gun that looks a hell of a lot like it way later.
You know what this vampire 'kill" could use? A civvie clip because I already mentioned Dust till Dawn.
Yes "white water" Little fun fact, if you watch the video you see the white water go away, so where the hell do we get the infinite supply of white water we use in game?
Head canon time! Keith Used his pocket dimension he never talks about to suck all of it up.
Keith then gives the now "cured" person( who btw there still other vampires swarming around this place, so she fucked anyway) his jacket, so we have a excused to give the ladies some eye candy.
Btw is it just me or does Keith look like Zell and Seifer from ff8 did the fusion dance?
The best guard hands us his tranq gun saying he has a second one.
He then goes fuck off as the game starts.
Tune in next time when we start the game proper and find out why the game is called. CountDown Vampires. Hint: It's in the name
Countdown Vampires Part 1: Guess we can't call them the Z word.
Eagle eyed viewers will spot I am on a different youtube channel now. I lost the password to the first one. Them the breaks when you try to keep the kiwifarms related stuff separated from your normal youtube/google account.
We start on a green moon.
I swear to god it sounds like she is saying "Reagan" and not "Leagan" I know L and R in Japanese to English translations can be a bit funny sometimes so this might be a case of that.
And with the cutscene ending we get our first timer at 3 minutes and our first " vampires" One might even say COUNTDOWN VAMPIRES ( roll credits).
Anyway you might ask yourself, " What happens when the countdown ends and we don't get out?"
Kira Strikes again.
Anyway let's check our inv
This is how many saves we have. No need to carry around ink ribbons you always start the game with 150 saves, and even on new game+ this goes back to 150.
This is our life meter don't let the bars fool you, It just changes color none of those bars go away.
By holding X over a item you can get a description of it.
I must question why he says. " guns" when this is the only stun gun we ever get
Maybe Keith just really a fan of these types of guns so he reading us a essay he wrote .
As the name, and description implies there a stronger version of this we can later find.
No idea why it needed to tell us the anesthetic is weak again in a different way.
Listen I know I am a stupid person with poor life choices and bad taste in video games, but you don't need to cater this hard to my peanut sized brain.
Don't let the name fool you. This is not a stun weapon. This thing kill vampires rather then stuns them. No wonder why Keith had problems if he thinks this thing gonna stun a guy.
This is the zombie walk style. This type will always show up in this room at the start no matter what moon it happens to be on.
This opening room is split into 3 areas. This big front area and 2 back areas
The way we have to go is the left side, I go the wrong back side first just to grab something first.
When we come back to this starting area towards the end of this update we come through that locked door there.
I just wanted to grab this dart ammo first. All non hidden item drops/shit you get from puzzles are in this orange packages.
I like it the same as resident evil sparkles as it helps them stand out.
Back in the front I go the right way.
Both back side doors look pretty much alike. But this side has a surprise waiting for us.
THE ONE OFF BLACK MAN THAT GAVE US A GUN!
He might be dead, but he is still in our hearts for his famous line about white water
Ya want to see something weird? If you check the dead body
What does it even mean? He a dead body, I hope he would be.
We can leave this back area with this entrance.
Now the game will teach us about the white water again, encase you skipped the opening.
That vampire makes the sound you make a few hours after eating taco bell.
I just can't help but say this but
Even in death his ghost is telling us about that "white water". God bless his soul.
Let's grab that item before the zombi- I mean vampires come at us.
Mmmm yummy. DRINK. This is our bootleg green herb of the game.
So the current moon we are on, zombies normally walk like this.
I shall dub thee 29 days of night later zompires.
All 3 different types have its own little quirks Fast ones move fast but also have a long wind up on attacks. .Really didn't help I also got stuck on that slot machine. This is the most annoying type to face later when we get a swarm of vampires.
Also these guys predate crimson head zombies from RE1 remake.
This is a save room.
I wont post every music track in this game, but I really like save room music. When I get to the other track I really like I'll post that one as well.
This computer is both our type writer, and item box.
I just like the blinking.
I'll check back mail at the end of the update.
Let's put a item away.
You will never run out of spaces in the item box.
This over here is a locker puzzle.
Yes they are all this easy, and can be the same one as a previous one you have done. I wont show me solving these again.
All these cards have the same description so I wont show em.
It just says the name on the card and that it opens the door and room to card name.
I don't plan on killing or stunning every enemy this run. I have a save for new game+ to show off the few extra things it has already.
God that clip makes me feel like I work for IGN.
This is how we get the map for fear moon.
I have no idea if this costs money to print. But money is easy to get.( Just stun and white water a vampire.)
Heres what the full map looks like. I screen capped this off some random website because I was far too lazy to boot the game back up.
Let's go to cheryl as we have more items to get.
There just a ton of bodies decorating the rooms And the skulls on the wall look awesome
Most of these rooms are not save rooms.
Yeah you can play slots and roulette to try to gamble for money with out saving vampires. I might show that off next update if any of you care to see it Nothing that interesting
This is 2 our of 4 cards we need.
This here is important for the first time playing.
Remember these numbers for a later update.
You ever thought of implication of this? Someone had to put the cards on the table like that, Write down that message on a paper WHILE VAMPIRES WENT ABOUT MURDERING PEOPLE IN THIS ROOM. Just on the off chance someone came in spotted it, and knew what it means.
(side note: I wont show me picking up all the ammo, but I will be doing it, so if you see a item I don't mention it's likely ammo or drink or something unimportant )
Anyway we need to go out the otherside of the room.
To a metal hallway.
These things are just here to force you to fight vampires or other monsters.
Fast zompires don't help on top of these hallways.
But around that corner I can show off how to dodge the fast zompires in a hallway.
Any one have any idea if these names on the cards are references?
If they are this is 100% a nightmare on elmstreet one.
Fun Fact, the moon changes color in the background and doesn't always tell us what color it turns to.
I say this because we now have the 4th type of vampires I always forget is a thing.
It's a half way point between shambling full zombie, and fast 29 days of night later kind.
They just mildly walk towards you like a thug looking to steal your stuff.
They give you a good old fast upper cut.
While that item there is nothing special
I found it funny how I struggled to get it.
I'll grab that item later.
I have no idea why both nancy and alice uses nancy card to open them but they do, We need to go towards Alice.
Both ways goes to the same room, just different areas of it, I'll be heading left.
Another one of these rooms.
We find some
Hell yeah all we need is a gun now.
Hell yeah a gun, now I feel safe enough to sleep and kill freddy.
Wait wrong game.
If you went the other way you end up in the area below these stairs.
Our next stop is up those stairs and in a room.
I can't help but love how stuff and cheesy the girls voice acting is.
Someone better help her remember the script.
The way she says " I work here" This is the Re1 type of cheese I love.
She'll try to follow us but it does nothing.
I also got stuck on another chair at some point.
We can now go to where those dancers in the opening first turned into vampires.
That item there.
This is our bootleg mixed herbs item. We can place up 2 3 drinks in it to save space.
The official translation can be a bit off at times. It clearly does not contain any drink.
I found if you climb these stairs at the very edge it looks funny like this.
Walking on air.
You might be wondering what the hell could be up here right?
It's the 4th and final card we need.
It also unlocks the room we started in.
As soon as we try to cross the cat walk again
The face you make when you hear the guy next to you fart loudly.
What your average furry in a suit looks like when not surrounded by other furries.
I hope this isn't CHRIS'S BLOOD.
I can't help but look at the hand rising he does to this monster like he about to say.
Anyway everyone who plays this game calls this a mantis man or something along those lines.
I don't think there is any official names.
They really easy to deal with one on one.
Just get them to jump and let your inner joestar run.
This looks way cooler not in motion.
Something funny I noticed.
Watch the bug man in the top right.
He a god damn magician. I thought this was Countdown vampires, not Hogwarts Legacy.
I will now go for this item here. It's just a file
Well that explains why people thought it was just a act at first.
This is where the last keycard opens.
Opening it makes this skull right under the dancer platform start glowing red on and off.
Welcome back to the start of the LP guys.
I still have a bad habit of recording these while very tried. Leading to uh that.
And now for the quirk of the slowest type of zompire.
AIMBOT!
Look at that mother fucking fastest turn in the west locked right onto my back just because I brushed pass his big toe.
Hit you switch and it turns on
the elevator.
I just thought the pole clipping into his head was funny to look at.
And here was have our last room(s) of the update another save room.
These dancers were packing some fucking heat. A freaking shotgun in this room.
Can you spot the hidden item?
The one locker with a weird colored handle. Would you have even guessed there was a hidden item here if I didn't ask?
Just ammo but still.
I love mirrors in ye old 3d games. Back then mirrors/reflected water just had a copy of your player model on the other side to mimic your actions.
It was a simple yet effective trick.
We need to go in that room there, and I want that item on the table.
We can't use this yet so In the item box It will go.
There 2 things here a file on the floor.
Sorry why? Why make it a one letter password? Was the keycards not enough?
The other item is hidden again in a locker.
This is our bootleg first aid spray.
Listen if resident evil can get away with a first aid spray magically healing you up after shit like hunters clawing you to the point a gentle wind will kill you, I can buy a Food brand food bar is magical enough to do the same.
And cure any and all injuries you might get.
Lastly before I end update 1 let's look at our Emails on the computer.
Something I want to point out is that we are 100% just checking our personal emails in game this is the background.
Mostly just spam emails it seems.
This is the save menu. The top and third saves are my first play through, with the third one being a newgame+ (That's why it's green) for when ever I need to show off that mode.
4 is the one I will be saving this one under.
I am sorry this took so long personal life was getting in the way again.
I also want to ask you guys. Do you want me to use the stun glove(globe) to kill a vampire next update? and do you want me to keep showing item descriptions?
I don't mind the item descriptions, also the Matis bug looked more like a mosquito to me, but he does have blades, so its a Mantis-Mosquito hybrid... the Mosquito on bee movie did mention that Mosquito chicks love Mantis so... why the fuck did I remember that now?
I don't mind the item descriptions, also the Matis bug looked more like a mosquito to me, but he does have blades, so its a Mantis-Mosquito hybrid... the Mosquito on bee movie did mention that Mosquito chicks love Mantis so... why the fuck did I remember that now?
No idea if I showed the police badge we had in our files. Man, unless Keith got that carved on the back of the badge, then he is cursed as hell. No idea if it meant to be a reference as this game clearly does love to embrace knock off horror movie stuff.
Keith needs to for some reason tell us that the computer is on before we can check whats on it.
This game has those little touches I just love. They didn't need to make a little animation like that, but god damn they did, and I am eatting it up.
I don't know if I can really even call this a puzzle. You can insert any of the 4 cards, but the game very much tell you right on that screen to put in red yellow and purple.
Each card adds more letters to the WHEEL OF FORTUNE puzzle below.
With all 3 of the ones it asks for
We are asked to solve the word.
BOY HOWDY I SURE WONDER WHAT THE WORD COULD BE.
What I tend to do when ever I read a update to Pokemon reborn LP.
And it shows us what door unlocked.
On the way there we go back up the stripper pole.
I love the little detail you only notice watching it over and over where he shakes for a moment as it stops.
Back in that room where we first met that one girl. These doors here are where we need to go.
Something to mention is that weird machine in the back there. It's a newgame+ feature. It will give you a lucky coin.
What do they do? Hell if I know. The gamefaq thread says they might be related to unlocking prince of darkness mode, but at the same time they might not be.
Also next to it is another food vending machine.
I wanted to post the song that plays here BUUUUUUT. I kid you not I can not find the damn song on youtube You might think " Isn't it named after the location (Screaming Moon)?" Nope. That's a different song played later in this location. I was going to use the program I used on Virus:It's Wware to get it's sound track, but I deleted it on accident a while back cleaning my computer. And I can't for the life of me find what the hell it was called, or any program that looked like I remember it looked like.
I've tried jpsxdec and it shits out this error when trying to read Disc 1.
Disc 2 didn't have the music, but it strangely did have all of the voice lines(including the ones from disk 1) with out the music playing over it. So if any of you want a clean rip of a funny voiceline do ask.
I can't go one LP with out having some kind of technical issues eh.
This opening lobby area of sorts is safe for now. It also has a map machine.
And I did do some off camera testing and it does subject 1J from you when printing a map.
Kind of a hidden item here. It's just ammo but still nice to note.
These are both elevators. We need to take the left one.
Doing so
eagle eye viewers would have caught that but for a frame this happened.
God damn I love the absurdity of old games and how they load in models.
Here a quick gif of that one frame.
So Misato is back and she met a new person
The racist remarks write themselves
Keith then responses with what he thinks of my LP skills.
I nabbed a video of this line.
and a clean recording of it off the CD data.
On the off chance any of you needed it to post as a reaction to something on other websites. Or in a post of your own.
They get into the elevator
and the door shuts behind us when Keith gets out leaving the girl stuck inside. Oh Spooooooky.
And then this happens
He just shows up out of nowhere.
Just listen to the voice.
Man dressed in all back?
Uses a voice changer?
Asking us a question as the first thing?
You all know who this is a shoe in for.
The game is now doing my job of stating the obvious.
He also mentions something about a countdown starting. Which keith does a metal gear with.
After this he vanishes.
No Keith that's the wall.
We came up here because there a item in the room to the right.
Yes, there is a museum here. It's great how many different locations they fit in this damn game. There is even a fucking
bootleg resident evil lab.
That item there
Is another tape. I will use both this one and the one we got before this update.
both of these can be checked.
That is one fucked up looking sun. Right up there with the MM moon.
We came here for this item.
I can now back track to the lobby and go up the stairs.
And oh fucking boy if you are wondering where all the vampires(zombies) went they are up here.
At the end of the clip there you can spot a 5th one coming for me.
6 of these fucks in this hallway alone. You want to know the funny part.
THERE IS ANOTHER 4 AT THE BOTTOM OF THE STAIRS.
Here's is the rub I really shouldn't waste shotgun on these guys even if it does one shot them.
BUUUUUT
God damn is it so satisfying to use on a horde.
That's one thing I think this game does really well. It has one hell of a good shotgun.
I really need to stop giving this game so much praise, else you all might think it's a good game.
There a file right here.
10th one should have been called "BEAST MOON X"
That or "Night of the Day of the Dawn of the Son of the Bride of the Return of the Revenge of the Terror of the Attack of the Evil, Mutant, Alien, Flesh Eating, Hellbound, Zombified Living Dead" (Real movie title btw)
We need to use our key at this door.
I was getting paranoid in my sleepy state as I kept forgetting what part of this hallway Something happens.
But I do remember to put on the shotgun.
Turning this corner we get a new monster.
Ah yes, Werewolfs.
Good use of the shotgun. It pushes them back, and stuns them for a second.
Oh and here's a close up of the face.
Let's keep going there like Another of these fucks I have to kill at some point. in this hallway I think. A lot of this section just blurs together when it comes to what you fight and where.
We have to go to the door on the left.
Both the right door and the door on the other side of this room.
Mention the key is damaged.
This game even has a theater room. I don't think we ever see anything play in this room, but man they pulled out all stops when it came to fitting ton of random locations into this place.
In the next room
Werewolfs have that growl as a tell. They could be miles away, and still make that sound along with the stomps.
Ahh yes I did kill a second werewolf in that one hallway. Now I can't fully shotgun the third one coming up.
Look at that Chad walk.
It was around this point I used my last shotgun hell on him.
Lucky for me, rather then attack me close range I got the semi uncommon" I LOVE YOU THIS MUCH" pose.
I still gun the fuck down despite it's confession of love. I ain't no furry,
You never open these shutters but it's neat you can check them.
We came here for the item on the right.
That's right we used a key to open the way which ended in us getting another key.
It was at this point my sleepyness took hold again and I went into the wrong elevator Should have took the left one again.
Well since I am down here might as well clear the way.
Just another ton of vampires.
This spot very good to just funnel them into so they can't surround you.
This little area has nothing but you can shoot over the waist high fences here to safe kill the vampires.
Ahh A safe room.
It has a TV I will use later.
This door lead us to some more bug men.
Check this shit out.
I used to hate the bugmen a lot. But as I replay this a second time for you guys I grow to like how predictable they are to bait.
This is when I realized I fucked up, but I didn't want to scrap the recording and push back this update again.
Gonna go backtrack to the other elevator
Back here we can open that door.
We meet misato again.
And then this happens
She must have just found out streamer named "gells" was paying Hogwarts legacy.
Even the game has no idea what the plot is.
I find this funny. So are vampires like some kind of gremlin in this universe or something? Remember guys don't feed them in the moon's rays or they turn evil.
We get yet another key.
This is a file.
It's just for a puzzle later.
That puzzle involves this.
ANOTHER FUCKING KEY. What is this Arise the Ps1 game.
make sure you check this computer here.
This is something I'll explain more next update.
Just know the power here in one of the werewolf rooms is now on.
New ammo type for a gun we don't have yet.
The first one was a lucky miss. The second one just looked odd to me.
Before I end this let's use the tapes on the TV.
WHICH MAKES A PRINTER SOUND.
I don't remember these pictures being used for anything.
What do they do? Hell if I know. The gamefaq thread says they might be related to unlocking prince of darkness mode, but at the same time they might not be.
Probably not happening but if I ever make a videogame I will do two things:
1. Design a female enemy that serves as coomer bait like Lady Dimitrescu or the Robot Twins so it will guarantee sales
2. Add items like this that no one really knows what they do so people speculate for a while
That or "Night of the Day of the Dawn of the Son of the Bride of the Return of the Revenge of the Terror of the Attack of the Evil, Mutant, Alien, Flesh Eating, Hellbound, Zombified Living Dead" (Real movie title btw)
I originally wanted to cover this game on April first, because it was too short and pretty sleeper game. But I missed that dead line. So enjoy me covering the game and looking at the anime movie it's a tie into.
Bega's Battle: A Data East, lazerdisc arcade game, using footage from from a anime movie worked on by MAD HOUSE, And directed by Shigeyuki Hayashi
This game is old, came out in 83.
Also going to use less screenshots for this then normal.
Going to be up front about this now. I couldn't finish this game because how bad I am at video games, so after stage 5 I am just going to cut pieces from this play though.
I might be snagging footage, But I give credit where its due.
lets see the attract mode first
My favorite part the guy melting. I'll say this game story basically cliff notes of cliff notes of the movie.
Hell some of it just made up. Wont show all the clips as they pointless.
The game play same vein as Galaga being a fixed shooter. With 2 FABULOUS powers we can later unlock, and lose.
We sadly do not hold aloft a magic sword and sing to get them.
So the first enemy is... flalling debris? That or triangle shaped jelly donuts.
You guys know how much i love jelly filled donuts.
Catch luna she gains a life, you need a certain amount of those to get the other 2 people.
I love joes voice in this. Rather then typical annoying high schooler voice. HE A MANLY MAN SCOTSMEN, AND HE GOT SOME OF THEM SPECIAL POWERS HIMSELF.
You want joe because he a second shot. You can also spam his pk barrier power to try not to die.
Now we fight spooky skulls.
Next level MOUTHS!
We meet sunny the token black kid.
Just our last beam upgrade and his power of teleporting.
NEVER USE IT
IT SENDS YOU BACK LEVELS, ITS AWFUL.
Keep a eye on joe.
Jobs on me so hard by getting hit by the enemy ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SCREEN
Fuck these eyes, I accidentally hit teleport button on the next level and got sent back to stage 2 and gave up after this.
Its not worth it. Been on and off trying and failing this game, so I'm just going to skim the youtube video for interesting stuff.
THE MEAT! This shit making it sound like genma did this.
It didn't
This fire dragon
The final boss in the movie, and i guess technically genma.
In the game it just a boss you fight half way so the other half of the game can reuse clips from before that I didn't show. There are 24 levels in all.
With the second half being round 2.
Btw despite how the voice over sounds. THESE ARE BOTH MINIONS, AND NOT GENMA
God this game is something.
anyway once you get back to the fire dragon the second time and win
So it gives you nonsense about 1 last battle. Which are 2 stages.
bats
and void eyes.
beat them and
Super player.
and to mention this now, see this giant skull. THIS IS GENMA.
Anyway that's a abridged look at this game, time to talk about the movie.
Which is on youtube if any of you want to watch it.
I wont cover everything, but you can enjoy some of the weirdness.
The movie a mess of stuff happening.
Two minutes in and uh performance dance warning?
I STILL HAVE NO IDEA WHO THIS IS.
We later also learn why you don't kick cans down dark alley ways.
Btw this somehow stops time. I wish I was joking.
You know what this reminds me of?
But wait this movie came out in 83, term is 84.
Bega and luna was spooking joe so he awakens his powers.
later this happens.
The movie makes more sense in context in these early parts. Even when i take these clips out of context.
This is his sister btw.
So anyway later genma officially attacks
NEW YORK
I assume he attacks it. We only see him mess up the SoL and rest of new york is like this when we see it.
This is where we meet sunny the black kid who is the leader of.
A GANG OF BLACK THIEVES very based movie.
It gets better
Speaking of genma's 2 minions. they can possesses people.
You get possessed you are 100% dead, there no coming back from it.
They also tend to be the most fun to watch.
japan does get attacked later
But the attack is like 5 panning still shots of crowds.
And Tokyo is suddenly a desert.
anyway skipping ahead a bunch, the movie turns into bambi for a bit.
No seriously.
btw still like 28 or so minutes left.
Joe got all these animals following him.
I forgot to mention joe has a friend way earlier in the film he showed his powers to but he hated joe for some silly reason.
This guy sounds and looks like a younger goldman from HotD2.
They have a battle. I uh think.
He got that campbell chin going on
And that's the context behind melting man.
anyway later in the center of mount fuji
They beat the old man(I think genma possessing him) after he does a pokemon the first movie, and turns people to stone.
Then genma turns into a zelda boss.
they beat him by.
They do a BY YOUR POWERS COMBINED moment and freeze him.
Then genma dies while making a super loud elephant noise.
While some old games ain't worth it, its still can be fun to share them. Look at the mess that was Virus, 100% not worth playing. But was worth seeing how bad it was.

I have been playing around with Duckstation as well. It's a good emulator. Better than ePSXe. Though I keep both around for compatibility issues. If it doesn't work on Duckstation it will work on ePSXe maybe. So far, all the games I have tried work flawlessly or nearly flawlessly. It plays MGS better than ePSXe. It sucks that no one is updating Duckstation anymore.
So is PCSX2. It's been improved since I last used it years ago. I have been downloading games before Sony or anyone else comes along and takes them down.
Last time( months ago) on countdown vampires, bootleg ghost face with a gun asking about THE GIRL and GELLS.
Now we have to go back to that long ass hallway in the screaming moon to hit some switches.
I also make sure to stop by this vending machine for a drink
These things are super useful when you need to top off your HP to get out of the slower Limping stage of walking.
But before we go to the hallway on our way there it's finally time I show you guys what's in this door.
It's a whole moving floor room to the evil house.
You may think " Oh we can get into the third area already"
hah no it's locked behind a puzzle and we need this item here to get the items for it.
This key looks like it belongs right in the original resident evil. Hell we find this thing in the entrance to the EVIL HOUSE lol I wonder how much this is the devs/translators having a bit of fun.
Anyway here the clock puzzle we can't solve yet to get inside the evil house proper.
Let's go back to the main reason we came this way and check that hallway out.
Nothing happens when to press yes, so Let's go find the other one
It's not as complicated as it looks.
Keith is confused about it.
Anyway now that the book was shown to us let's go back to the museum and check it.
We can open the case now.
I hope you like reading this is 5 full screen caps worth of text.
Rereading the titles of each chapter makes this feel less like prophecy and more like a B horror movie titles.
Where the
Night Of The Day Of The Dawn Of The Son Of The Bride Of The Return Of The Revenge Of The Terror Of The Attack Of The Evil, Mutant, Hellbound, Flesh-Eating, Crawling, Alien, Zombified, Subhumanoid Living Dead when you need it.
Also what a shitty emperor name 75331. I don't recall that number ever meaning anything, nor does it get used for a puzzle.
Once we get done reading the book.
Can we take a moment to talk about how silly this is.
So we first picked up the book, read it, CLOSED THE ENCLOSER BACK, got distracted by the two things opening, and then JUST THEN NOTICED THIS MEMO WAS UNDER THE BOOK, and had to reopen the case to read it.
Are we sure this is a message from the book of prophecy? Looks more like the message you might see in a forum registration screen telling you to not use "password" as your password.
Anyway let's check out theses now.
You plug that baby in and
Can you guess the password? We got a clue for this in this very update.
Sun. it's fucking sun. As in SUNDAY.
Maybe you did/didn't get the first one take a guess what the second one is.
MON as in FUCKING MONDAY
Anyway now we got both the discs changed we can go back to reinsert them in that computer room.
You know sometimes this game really just fucking hates me. Check this out
I couldn't help myself so here a shitty meme
Anyway we get in the room insert the 2 new disc and
This is where the game wants us to go next.
On our way back
Mother fucker hits me again.
When we try to leave screaming moon this happens.
Van Hellsing Ghost face here still is my favorite character in this game.
I still love rewatching the footage for those 1 frame default pose models
Look at this goofy ass sticking his head out of the floor.
Who ever this "Gells" guy is he stealing our girl.
Hahhaha.
KIETH LITERALLY GOT BATMAN'ED BY MR TALL DARK AND VOICE CHANGER.
Still got to dodge a ton of zombi- I MEAN VAMPIRES on our way back to fear moon.
but we are not done with cutscenes yet.
We got real BAT MAN now. No wait wouldn't this be MAN BAT.
Already having flash backs to the 2 bugman
God I hate fucking man bats.
Thankfully these two are weirdly unique in that once you leave the room they disappear from it.
I need to back track a little more to get a Item we need.
You can tell when a room has man bats in it. The sound design in this game isn't half bad for bootleg RE.
This here is
I didn't pick it up before for inventory space reasons, and it also gave me a reason to backtrack and show that manbats show up in this place now.
You could say I was killing TWO BATS WITH ONE STONE. If my shit sense of humor doesn't kill you, the awful jokes that come from it will.
I think this place is meant to be the high rollers/VIP room Hence how out of the way it is. Or I could just be reading too far into how I would design a place like this.
We can find quite a few of these clips laying around up here for a gun we have yet to find.
This background box is where we can use that spear key.
You can tell it is important because it flashes.
Using it uh does this.
It makes giant cards on a table, and opens 2 paintings on the walls that have clocks inside of them.
Did Spencer also design this place like he did RE1 mansion?
We can also find this item here.
We need this to get to the other room that is up here in a bit.
Another important to find item is this.
Someone was fucking packing heat up here. It's what the .223 rounds go to.
This puzzle safe only has a Food bar inside.
Anyway if we go out the back door to this room
We not only find Sydney room, but
We can go farther back here.
Find a hidden corner
It's only a Vending machine, but if you do ever play this game and use up the other ones, this hidden one is could be useful.
Hallway to Sydney also has this random message. It's foreshadowing, still kind of weird to see your first time playing.
Welcome to Sydney where the only working keno machine is.
And a ton of items.
I have no idea the point of this memo.
We already was told the solution to Keno puzzle before this update.
We could check that flashing keno machine.
But first I want to show off a cool little trivia I found.
If we first go into the room across from the keno machine
We can interact with the turned off puzzle safe for some
Untranslated Japanese text.
I ran this image in the google translate for images and it translated it.
Man isn't that fucking cool how far automatic translation tech has come.
Anyway let's use the keno card we got on the keno machine.
These are the numbers we got a while back.
Inside is
We get 2 card pieces to solve another puzzle. So we can get items to solve another puzzle next update. I wish that was a joke.
Again I want to take a moment to look at the absurdity of this.
So we had to get a keno ticket, and find a memo with numbers for it to turn on a puzzle safe, to get the card pieces, for a puzzle in a room we needed to go out of our way to find a key., that was also locked behind a door which also needed a key from a separate room, which all leads to us getting 2 more items which are to open that door that is in the room that one of the keys to this whole chain of events was in. This isn't getting into how we had to open the room to the keno machine by doing bunch of other puzzles to turn on the elevator to the room before it to get the key to open it.
When you put any thought into this, it starts to sound like some kind of nonsensical moon logic puzzle in a adventure game.
But I digress.
The Sydney room has 2 ways out back door here.
Leads to a room I didn't show off before, normally there vampires here the first time you find this room at the bottom. If you go out this way you skip a cutscene for a new monster.
Let's instead go back the way we came.
Keith hears a noise coming from the pipes, and leans down like the first person to die in a horror movie would.
Out pops what I can only describe as 2 things.
1. BallSackless balls.
2. The average DSP pay pig if DSP was the main baddie of parasite eve.
What the fuck is this face.
Also this weird mouth moment he does looking at it.
It even grows spikes which I don't think ever comes into play.
And screeches at us.
This is the games blob monster/the thing. I just like to call him IVAN OOZE.
Despite how poorly the CGI aged in that movie I still love it.
You may be asking how does Ivan ooze attack you? What does he stretch his arms like a gummy pirate? Does he lunge at you? Maybe he shoots those spikes on his back at you? He could maybe BRING IT AROUND TOWN! AND THEN DO THIS AND THIS AND THIS AND THAT!
hah You wish.
That's right lol what a stupid attack.
Two more of them in the next hallway.
So this puzzle works like this. Use the card piece that has a number opposite on the clock.
In this case 9
I am going back to screaming moon to save so next update we can open the evil house with these 2 new clock hands.
And all the zombies(vampires) came back because we got the clock hands.
Even these ones.
Thankfully even cornered I got out alived and saved.
Till next time friends.
I wish I could update this lp more often for you guys.
If my shit sense of humor doesn't kill you, the awful jokes that come from it will.
