"La Mulana" reference

Post by Artemio »

A friend of mine pointed me to a great game called La Mulana, a game created in the MSX style and recently translated to English. I must say that the game design is really good, and that it is indeed challenging. I recommend you play it.

But, there is more to it as the title of this entry says. The game has hidden mini MSX game parodies within, by collecting some items. Here is a link to a video of the one that interests us. I must warn you though, the voice of the guy narrating is a bit annoying.

You've been warned.

That wasn't a good enough warning!!! Seriously, all who watch, turn down the volume, you aren't missing much... My brains are diced by his narrative.... DICED.
Edit: Oh yeah, and about the vid lol... Poor Shiori~... The token Mk. II parody was funny tho, as he'd just constantly get in the way as you shoot...

Initially, that seemed cliché, but it turned out pretty well (the game scene that is, not the guy's narration). This game seems to have some distance to itself, I like that. Too many games take themselves way too seriously these days.
