Video Games Of The Week
Game of the Week Switch
shoot em up
Truly crazy psychedelic shoot ’em up – think Jet Set Radio meets Shibuya street style with some seriously colourful colour schemes thrown in for good measure as Mebius throws a full roster of projectiles at players. A real cult following since its Wii days and well worth a look for those looking for a shooting blast off the usual scale.

shoot em up
Flying Shark, Fire Shark, Tiger Heli, Ultimate Tiger, Out Zone, Fixeight, Batsugun and Dogyuun make up the dream team for the first instalment of crystallised, sheer shoot em up fun with Out Zone and its sequel Fixeight being run and gun to give blasting variety. A real pleasure to get introduced to the others with Dogyuun being an arcade exclusive we had yet to encounter. Not that Genki would have been brave enough to drop in a few hundred Yen coins to be subjected to public scrutiny of ones shooting tactics.

One on One Beat Em Up
Super shrunk down versions of the Hiryu no Ken series fighters with caricature faces and over the top expressions. Not taking itself too seriously, SD Hiryu still manages to pull a few punches and fight its corner well with interesting backgrounds such as cityscapes with Big Ben all adding to the intriguing of the character roster of nineteen characters. Good, clean fighting fun.

RPG
A truly memorable adventure from an innocent era of RPG gaming with beautifully drawn sprites in the Mother/Earthbound style. Players find themselves on an uninhabited island and exploring its surrounds requires the lamp for the cave sections, only illuminating the players vicinity. Full of such attention to detail bringing to mind the seminal GB Zelda.

Old school platforming in all its springs, strawberries and skateboarding cliched brilliance. Simple character sprites, colourful backgrounds, good play mechanics all add up to a title that built Hudson into a major developer. Full Japanese name ‘Takahashi Meijin no Daibouken Shima II.’
