Oh Mummy - new Genesis Homebrew....hang on a minute...

[_Paul]

Spot anything familiar?

Here's a clue:

[BlueBMW]

Reminds me of coryoon?

Reminds me of coryoon?

Even Mega Drive game makers can't resist the power of OBEY.

[Nazi NecroPhile]

The rest of the game makes me think of Pyramid Plunder.

[Nando]

Thought the same thing.

[Keranu]

Good eye, Paul!

Was thinking the same thing.

[Tatsujin]

those stealers!!

[Samurai Ghost]

I still want to buy it though...

[HercTNT]

looks as if they did a half way decent job atleast

[Tatsujin]

And that mini game in there was taken from here (Bishi Bashi Special 3 - Step Champ):

[Arkhan Asylum]

So, the whole game is just a bunch of ripoffs turned into a goofy looking PacMan/QBert/Burgertime On It's Side kind of game..?

I find it ironic they are using the pyramid theme as well.

in a manner that is similar to PP.

oh well!   We've got sweet chiptunes.

EDIT:

Oh, it appears this was an old-ass game at one point.  So, they have just redone it here, with stolen art.

Interesting.

That's rather vague. Links, references, stories, other games?

[Arkhan Asylum]

It was an old Amstrad CPC game.

what game is that?

[RegalSin]

I will admit, Genesis got game, but that amount of plastic overshadows my PCE setup, with or without CD-rom.

[Nando]

ain't that some shit. I watched their video again and the beginning shows the OG game, but it went by so fast, I didn't really pay attention the first time around.

Looks like they did a decent up conversion/port thingie

[Arkhan Asylum]

yeah, but they ripped off art from other games severely, so that is kind of lame.

[PikachuWarrior]

So if you rip off a homebrew and put it in another homebrew, besides moral obligations, is it considered legally wrong?

[Nando]

like, take a sprite sheet and use that or use existing sprite sheets as template and redraw the sprites?

The cartoon girl at the beginning looks familiar, I want to say she belongs to Metal Slug, but that's just pure speculation.

They didn't rip off another homebrew.

They ripped off Coryoon. 

a commercial PC Engine game.

Look at Pauls comparison, and the other stuff in the thread, lol

[PikachuWarrior]

Oh okay. Well, people said it was like Pyramid Plunder

[Nazi NecroPhile]

Oh okay. Well, people said it was like Pyramid Plunder

That's because of how it's played (grid based, evading enemies, collecting items) and the Egyptian theme, not because of close similarities in the artwork.

[Arkhan Asylum]

Yeah.  But, since it came out before this, WE RIPPED THEM OFF.
kinda, not really.

its a different type of game.

(Read: Not as fun! BWHAHAHAHA)

It's not bad though.   I watched a bunch of videos.  It does look like it would be fun if I had an Amstrad.

what game is that?

Bishi Bashi Special 3!! best party game before warioware

I preordered it to see what would happen.  They told me that then needed to charge me 3 more Euro to ship to the US.   :\
