It’s a kinda bad fanservice show from back in the day. Watched like one episode on TV and you’re not missing much

Oh by now it’s a very recognizable style for sure. I feel like Iβ€˜m looking at Guilty Gear, dot Hack and like DearS or something

Erementa certainly was a choice. Iβ€˜ll pretend that’s the name of a magic spell or something

I wondered if I should include the custom demon in there, but there wasn’t any screen real estate left

Oh that’s a solid pick

At some point I really need to invest in a deck, even just for gamedev purposes

Oh true, Yujiro is in that one and busted af, conforming to lore

Also I learned about Garouden from an ancient German mag in the same way. I didn’t know anything about fighting games back then, so when I learned about Garou MOTW, I thought they were related because of the name

After 5 minutes of research there seems to be a Ky Kiske-like whose girlfriend transforms into two giant demon blades for him to wield

I haven’t heard of Elemental Gelade before, but I looked at it and now I wanna learn more. Garouden is a great pick too

What are some fun/funny obscure fighting games to put on during the next fight night? (console only). Currently on the menu:

Dino Rex
Rozen Maiden Gebetgarten
Sakura Wars Columns

True, think of the crazy money they would have made with a PS2 port in 2008. Literal dozens of copies sold

Was prototyping something and quickly had to sketch up a bunch of characters

Your characters look so wonderfully comfy, I wanna hug all of them

Would you believe me if I told you the inspiration came from Sonic and the Secret Rings

Nah, if you buy a US copy you get Angela instead, who is just a model swap. Technically sheβ€˜s in the PAL version too, but the game crashes when trying to load her model due to rushed development

Sakura was popular at the time and fits the setting, but Sega of America takes offense to that, so she gets removed in the international release

First of all, thanks for playing the demo to the end! Demon Cell Body will be in the final dungeon, correct. If you are missing the badge in the bottom right, that one is included in the demo, but very well hidden. If you find it, you might even meet a familiar face from the first game.

It’s difficult not to rush development of the final dungeon, cause like a player I wanna get to the final boss already
