Paprium - New beat em' up for MegaDrive/Genesis

[Sima Tuna]

So much cocaine is being purchased with that money.

Gift that keeps on giving, this game and the shitshow around it.



(PS4 has arcade-perfect Final Fight, Vendetta and Zero Team. get owned, poseur creeps )

Advertises Steam and PS, yet says they'll run like shit. I love this mess.

Mega SG doesn't have the guts to run Paprium*, but it has the guts to run Demons of Asteborg, Tanzer, Xenocrisis, Darius Extra, Arkagis Revolution, and The Curse of Illmore Bay. Asteborg doesn't work correctly directly off Jailbreak (actually displays title screen and menus, but freezes right after starting, IIRC), but it does work via actual cart or Everdrive Pro.

*Even some official models of the Genesis/MD don't have the guts to run Paprium.

Yep. I heard that was the problem Bofner ran into.

Users who have Genesis consoles without sufficient guts to run this beast have found an affordable solder free mod that guarantees 100% compatability with Paprium. Simply attach the following below the insecure console's AV port:

Craprium. Pooprium. Fonz's dumbfuck comments come back to bite him. Who would've thought that would happen to such a loudmouth?

I just looked up some footage of the game again and yeah, still the same floaty weightless bullshit where nothing feels like it has any impact at all. A cardinal sin when it comes to a game about beating people in the face. Combat still looks just as boring, too.

Here's that Bofner vid, it's pretty old now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wauTuo5RCSc

It seems the game is finally playable through emulation.
Someone got it working on a modified Genesis Plus GX core.

Against my better judgment, I ended up backing the game on kickstarter, in order to get a PC version, and after years without anything (not even any sort of info about a release), it's hilarious I get to try the game through... emulation.

Was it worth the wait, though?

Legends never die ..

Now playing on the MegaEverdrive Pro.

Wow, I completely missed out on this thread.

Finally I know what happened to Xydonia lmao. Thought it looked really cool when it was first posted in the dev section like 20 years ago or whatever. Had no idea it turned into a scamstarter

Interestingly Xydonia was the last game I backed. I vowed to never back a game again after that.

Shame too - it looked like it might have been pretty great. On the flip side Yuzo's new joint drops in a week!
