In these boss fights the gameplay changes to something like a fighting game with two energy bars one for your robot and another for the giant monster.Īfter you beat the boss there´s a cool scene with the giant robot finishing the boss with a super beam attack.Īt the end of the five areas the area 6 appears as the final stage, something very similar to Willy´s fortress in Megaman.Īs you guys can see the gameplay is very rich with a bunch of good ideas that fits perfectly the game´s tematic. When all the heroes die you´ll sent to a Game Over screen with a continue option, like in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.Īt the end of each area there´s a boss waiting for you but these bosses are giant monsters so what you gonna do!?Įasy, call the rest of your team and form a giant robot like Megazord! Fuck Yeah! Now with your hero selected you start the stage but if your hero dies you have to go back to the character select screen and choose another one. So as you can see those guys has different types of weapons like in Power Rangers for SNES.

White Swan -> main weapon is a laser pistolīlue Swallow -> main weapon is a laser pistol So I´ve recommend to all of you to take your gravity armor and go kick some robot asses!Ĭhoujin Sentai Jetman is an awesome platform game that has lots of nice touches.īasically when you start the game you can choose between five areas, when you pick one of it you have to choose your character. Musics and sound effects are good, not something that really gets stuck in your head but they´re okay, at least for me. The backgrounds features a nice parallax effect I don´t know how they did that since NES doesen´t suport parallax backgrounds but it gives to the player the felling that there´s depht in the background. The bosses are giant with great amount of details too. Take a good look when you´re walking, there´s lots of animation frames and the main character is heavily detailed too.

Now I´m gonna talk about the looks, graphics are awesome in this game and I´ve never saw a NES game with so fluid animations like this. The enemies aren´t a great deal, the level design is really awesome and the biggest challenge are the boss fights. At least, it didn’t felt too difficult compared to other games of its time.

Metal Storm´s gameplay it´s simple and intuitive.

The main objective is to active the self detonation device in the battle station to stop this menace once for all!Ĭool huh? It´s a shame that the US version doesn´t has this introduction. In order to save humanity they´ve sent an ace pilot using a gravity battle suit capable of control the gravity. Now that the battle station is out of control it´s already destroyed Neptune and Earth is the next target. The most noteworthy thing in this game is the ability to change the gravity during the gameplay allowing the player to walk in the ceiling with reverse gravity.īut first, as always, I´m gonna talk a little more about this game´s history. The year is 3521 and a giant battle station called Cyberg has been taken by an unknown force. Metal Storm is a very obscure game created by the same company that made R-TYPE. Hi everyone today I´m bringing to you a game that I recently discovery that has an american version, so most part of this review is about the japanese version of it.
