on top of that it's an autoscroller so even if you know you missed too many collectibles at the start you have to wait for the whole thing to finish
oh also there are barely enough collectibles to actually complete the stage, and if you don't you have to start all over
playing the harry potter 1 psx game because why not and
did they playtest this at all? this is _extremely_ difficult, and not in a good way
there are mandatory sections where you have to try to collect things while on a gringotts minecart with wonky physics, and the screen rotates every which way but the warnings saying "obstacle ahead" or "collectible ahead" point the same way regardless of screen rotation
Felthry's VGM Selection
Solar Boy Django
Boktai 2: Solar Boy Django
Norihiko Hibino
Boktai is one of those fantastic series that got very little attention and got left by the wayside not long after its debut. This piece, played near the beginning of the game, opens the game with a feeling of adventure, setting the scene for what's to come quite well, in my opinion.
I do love a piece that makes good use of the GBA's sound chip. It may not be high-fidelity sound, but that slight bit of chiptuniness really makes it, if the composer knows how to handle it well. And I think Hibino does.
Like the Wild ARMs series, Boktai has that unusual sort of setting and theming that combines high fantasy, sci-fi, and western in a way that just appeals to me, and the music reflects that as well, with a feeling reminiscent of a spaghetti western movie... Just, with vampires and zombies.
(I don't mean to guilt people into giving me attention or anything I'm just, wondering if anyone reads it)
so, does anyone actually read/follow/show-any-interest-in-at-all #FelthrysVGMSelection? I like doing it but it feels like every post kinda just gets ignored...
"no, between the legs"
"if the space between them was 'in' the pants then it would be a skirt, not pants"
so the game in question was the ps1 release of harry potter an the sorcerer's stone because we have really extreme nostalgia for the pc and gbc releases and wanted to try the ps1 one
and holy _hell_ these character models are bad
(this is not really a serious post or anything and I am not asking people to translate their jokes, just to be clear. speak the language you like!)
was thinking about how inconvenient it is (not very but it still is!) to have to keep the mouse separate from the laptop when travelling and thought about having a space in the laptop to put a mouse, then remembered that laptops in the 90s and early 00s actually had such a space
