I would guess that the card is more likely based on Mambo, a fish character from the Parodius games - there are a handful of other YGO cards based on Gradius and Parodius (they were mentioned in a thread WAY back when).Mortificator wrote:Manbow's really good.

Underrated Shmups ?

I think that Dimahoo is seriously underated in the forums. I think there are zero reviews on the internet of it too. Kinda weird, being a Raizing game and all.

Mambo from Parodius probably is based on Space Manbow anyway. The Manbo character looks a lot like the ship from Space Manbow.BulletMagnet wrote:I would guess that the card is more likely based on Mambo, a fish character from the Parodius games - there are a handful of other YGO cards based on Gradius and Parodius (they were mentioned in a thread WAY back when).Mortificator wrote:Manbow's really good.

Rapid Hero. Haven't played it in a while since I'm busy with my own game but the action is very good. It has what Psikyo* games lack - non-stop action.
Note to Rob: I find most shmups lacking in non-stop action but I mention Psikyo specifically because Rapid Hero seems to borrow a lot from their games.

It is powerup of laser.

I *think* I started it elsewhere first, then kozo, then Etrian.spadgy wrote:What's going on with all these 'Dot Eater' avatars. Thrid one I've spotted today. I thought it was only Kozo - but now you and somebody else have one!?LGB wrote:Sagaia, for Gameboy.

Last Resort.
And I guess Strikers Plus, though it isn't "under-rated" perse.
It's Ikaruga. It's over-rated. And it's old-school. :V

Haha. I'm not sure what makes Rapid Hero have more nonstop action, though. It kind of has the appearance of more action with the enemy swarms? Or are you referring to breaks between sections of a level or between levels?320x240 wrote: Note to Rob: I find most shmups lacking in non-stop action but I mention Psikyo specifically because Rapid Hero seems to borrow a lot from their games.
