Progear huh, If you've played, how is it?
Was it ever ported?

Post by **BulletMagnet** » Mon May 09, 2005 11:05 pm

No home port exists, but it's playable in MAME.

Personally I think it's okay, but I don't like it as much as most of Cave's other stuff.

What a nice video! It looked like a great time.

Friends together and shooting games, eating and having fun... Thank you for sharing!

Wow, looks like it was lots of fun. I'm assuming a lot of the people in that video aren't members here. Either that, or there are a lot more Austrian members than I'm aware of.

Minor gripe: too much people, not enough Cave.

Someone wanted to know if there are other meetings planned.

Yes indeed.
Believe it or not.
The next shmup weeting will be held on 28. May 2005 (maybe a week later).

Raidenfighter Kirkov · Tue May 10, 2005 10:57 am

Hi !

The capital city of austria (vienna) is also the headquarter of shmupping.

The "Eitle" gaminghall is nearby Vienna (60 km).

Thank you all for your great response. I really worked hard to get things right ( extremely dark - for cameras - in the gameing hall for example ) but with a few tricks this wasnt an issue anymore.

It was such a cool event, and even the girls had fun, really

The best proof is that every girl was far form being the last one

The only one how was bored, was the dog, as u can see in my vid

Of course the next vid is following, and this time it wont take too long, Ill promise

stay tuned, and thx again for your response!

What.

A home-port exists, it was brought to American arcades.

If you're looking for any similarity, Progear is a bit like Ketsui, but when I say that, it's like 10% in similarity.

What's the name of the song used? I recognize it from the superplay DVD DOJ came with

Defcon 5 · Post by **Defcon 5** » Tue May 10, 2005 2:56 pm

Its called "Colored Rainbow" Level 2 form DOJ.
It perfactly fits for vids, like the Espgaluda OST "Floating Fortress".

Neon · Post by **Neon** » Tue May 10, 2005 3:07 pm

You're right, it is level 2...got it confused with the one from that weird second section of the DVD.

If anyone knows the name of that song, let me know

He was talking about a port (like Mushi's getting ported to PS2), not localization.

This is so beautifull. A dream comes true. I wish I was still living in europe; I would have come right up there. I'll be in europe next month; too late to join your next contest.

And DOJ's your favorite shooting game? What.

Was that the remixed version of stage 2, because I don't remember it being that upbeat. I think that was my favorite track from the game.

Neon · Post by **Neon** » Wed May 11, 2005 1:27 am

I haven't been able to play it in like a farking month with concentrating on strikers 2 + finals, moving out, etc. I've even forgotten how the songs go

I actually have the soundtrack but the song on part 2 of the replay doesn't seem to be on it...was wondering what the name of that was
