This video reminded me just how many mini bosses this game had. I was surprised at the hour length until I see you did the entire dice maze.

- All right boss. The team came up with seven different ideas for this boss battle. Which one do you want to use? - Y E S

Seven Force was one of the most time consuming fights I've had as a kid, a real test of endurance that one. If you play on any of the lower difficulties you only get 3 or 5, so you'd want to play on the harder difficulties for the best experience Also Smash Daisaku has the best voice hands down HEHEHEHEHO

Treasure has created both of my most favorite Genesis games, with Dynamite Headdy first, and Gunstar Heroes second. Both had amazing gameplay, bosses, level design and slight touch of oddness. Bravoo Man and Melon Bread are my favorite bosses, despite being so simple. It's a shame that the player annihilated them so quickly, since they have pretty cool movesets, and just movement in general, (Especially Bravoo Man). Plus, the concepts would be reused in other Treasure Games (Melon Bread into Alien Soldier, Core Guard System into Dynamite Headdy etc.)

Exactly right. In an interview with Mr Maegawa (President of Treasure) he stated that He tried developing games like Dynamite Heady and GunStar Heroes for the SNES, but then gave up because the SNES's processer was too dang slow.

Oh man, I love this game so much ^^ It was always funny to me, that after so many fights with all kinds of army vehicles, the most awesome fight was against Orange.

One of my absolute favourite Genesis games! By the same creators as Dynamite Heady)) Btw in this video, he is playing with the hardest difficulty level, hence the length boss energy levels

Childhood favorite and still 2 this day 1 of the best game to ever touch the screen....FACTZZZZ!!!!

Nice run on an awesome game. Anyone else notice that each successive form of the Core Guard System is easier than the previous, when one would expect harder.

I beat this game a couple months ago for the first time, and I loved it! I'm a big fan of classic run and gunners, I found that out through Cuphead, and I've been playing a bunch of them ever since. Contra, Megaman, and of course Gunstar Heroes. Without these titles I wouldn't have thought of creating games myself, so I gotta show at least a little respect for these titles!

As a SNES fan, I have to say this is one of the highest quality Genesis games I've ever seen. Treasure was pretty much Sega's alpha-male developer; you can tell they put a lot of effort and thought into their games. This game really flexes the Genesis' sound muscle too, something the SNES is more known for. If all Genesis games were even half this good, the Genesis probably would have won the war. My only issue is the boss concepts seem to be random and based upon ideas collected during a mushroom trip.

@kstaats13

I was a fan of both, and had both systems. I wouldn't say the SNES won when it was in direct competition with the Genesis at all. Each system had its strong points, but SNES got some awful ports of some great games, Mortal Kombat and Pit Fighter come to mind right away. Mortal Kombat gets a bit lambasted on SNES since it was edited. Sure, the SNES had the better graphics of the two ports, but the Genesis was a better playing experience. And Pit Fighter on Genesis was true to the arcade... the SNES version was so abysmal it drove me to save up my allowance and go get the Genesis version. I'd say the only real way the SNES can claim victory is that Sega shut down the Genesis abruptly to pour support into the ill-fated Saturn. One day it was going strong, and SNES and Genesis were enjoying a great rivalry, and the next, Genesis was dead. Since Nintendo continued support of the SNES for a lot longer, I can see how people claim Nintendo won that counsel war, but I think there was a lot of life left in the Genesis, and Sega was foolish for cutting off their greatest system to try and get to the 32 bit market so quick. It really was a shame. Both systems were great. And honestly, to this day, besides a handful of SNES games, I go back to my Genesis more often when I want "the feels." But, I do agree with you on the sound! Sega didn't do well on that level at all, I'm looking at you Rock N' Roll Racing! Hahaha

Crab Force was a freaking beast...especially in hard mode. SN: I used to run close to Soldier Force to make him slide....freaking cool seeing him do that

I love this game so much. It's especially good with 2 players !

50:08 if they have voices, while reading there lips, looks like they saying Come on!, Come on! As to taunt you to come here lol.

You know, if the core had just remained in the background, you wouldn't have been able to hurt it. Effectively, it destroyed itself.

19:55 Mangosteen just got his butt kicked in

Omg, you beat the second stage boss (the seven force) without even taking a single hit. What a feat there! (Because most people WILL get hit once, by one of his forms). Doing a no continue run is possible on hard, but this? Trully awesome!

the concept for the black beat stepper would have been so much better if he was invulnerable through dice rolls and the walls switched patterns between attacks, he's such a pushover as it is

The chaser and lighting together are so over powered

1:29 Whoa Hanson Sanson and Grandis From Nadia secret of the Blue Water!♡

There's something to be said about certain video game sound effects that have a profound effect on a person. This game had plenty, but by far, one of the most haunting of them all (for me, it still haunts parts of my memories) was Tail Force's Hypersonic Spin sound effect. It was also used as Green's Counter Force move, where he absorbs your shots. Anyone else feel the same way?

Chaser + Lightning is the worst combination to use in Expert Mode, IMHO. But well done in utilizing it effectively during some of the boss fights, despite the damage reduction. Especially against Seven Force.

How so? Golden Silver flies off after being defeated, and gets chased by Green and Red. (I’m going after Red’s story, not Blue’s.) In the ship, all of the weapons have been destroyed, leaving no true way to finish off Golden Silver. Green apologizes for putting the world in a chaotic state, and smashes into Golden Silver. Green dies from the explosion and Golden Silver was destroyed. The Gunstar Heroes returned to Earth.

Okay, since Cuphead was inspired by this game, I'm gonna come up with Cuphead-style interpretations of the bosses in this game. Papaya Dance - an apple tree; drops giant apples, out of which come giant worms that crawl across the screen to attack the heroes Bravoo Man - a horde of sentient crates coordinated to move like a humanoid Pinky Roader - the mast of a ship comes to life and detaches itself from said ship; in the crow's nest at the top is a sniping pirate, and sometimes the mast grows arms to bring the sniper closer to his target; there's also a cannon up in the crow's nest, which the sniper will use to fire sentient cannonballs that follow their target The guy with the transforming robot - A shape-changing blob of ink; starts the battle by hopping out of an inkwell, a la Koko the Clown Swapping Reg(?) - a snake with a head on both ends; each head will sometimes spit venom at the ground as an attack Orange - a circus strongman, fought on the wings of a biplane-slash-helicopter flying machine (possibly inspired by that old black-and-white footage of failed flying machines) Valvalion - an angry millipede, basically Timeron - an evil hourglass Minion Soldier - a tiny or stumpy version of those flower enemies in Forest Follies Melon Bread - Already has one: Mangosteen. Pit - a room full of sentient balloons and a...car jack, maybe? Phantom - a monkey throwing explosive coconuts, maybe? Has a bird companion that flies around the screen and attacks Vortex Base - a team of round creatures ricocheting/passing a projectile between each other? I dunno Curry and Rice - a statue with boxing gloves (because you're not supposed to use projectiles in this battle) in a room full of explosives Abarenbou Gel - an ooze, like Goopy Le Grande, but drops explosives instead of throwing punches Super Gondola - either a flying pirate ship or a big aircraft; has big cannons either way Black Beat Stepper - some of King Dice's old minions that you didn't fight in Cuphead; the one leading the charges throws dice at you while the others use their respective attacks; there are red demons that breathe flames, skeletons in green cowboy clothes firing Gatling guns (the bullets ricochet), blue sharks blowing exploding bubbles, and yellow snakes spitting lines of venom Smash Daigaku - war-obsessed bat soars (because cartoon logic) around the screen dropping bombs, then when his wings are too full of holes to allow him to fly, he starts using firearms (or magic?) instead And that's all I have the patience to do. Anyone wanna take over?
