Revision as of 21:22, 10 November 2021

To do

  • Add in-level screenshots to Levels, figure out how to display both screenshots and artwork together cleanly.
  • Add screenshots to the Power ups section.
  • Find/translate the game's script, fill in remainders of story.
  • Resize dimensions/proportions of box spines per official artwork.
  • Uh. Verify this game has actual enemy collision.
  • Write small mention of TMSS incompatibility.
  • Write section addressing hyperbolic reputation, and how much of it comes solely from "porn+unlicensed". It's not a great game, but jesus christ, take an okay game and throw some porn in it and suddenly its 0/100% unplayable insulting garbage. No no, someone said it was "obviously far better" than f'in The Earth Defend. Criminitely.
  • Is Boss 4 less a frog and more a salamander? Considering he's chilling in the lava. Also, kinda looks a bit like a water bear? or those- flatworms? The microscopic phallic-looking worms things.
  • Now that the article is properly covering pornography and sex, does it need a NSFW tag?

Graphics oddities

  • Divine Sealing runs in 256x224, which is stretched to 4:3 by the television set. The hentai artwork APPEARS to have been drawn with this in mind, but NOT the planet screens. And the hand-drawn HUD seems to show the game actually being displayed in its internal resolution. And now that I look at the faces of the hentai artwork at 4:3, I'm not so sure. Not the biggest deal, but once this page is in a cleaner spot, make sure to go back and see what resolution the art was actually intended for.
  • Did the Wind and Flame stages' planet graphics somehow get... mixed up? The orange flame stage uses a green planet, and the green wind stage uses an orange planet.
  • Inconsistencies like the teal/gray hair color of that one character, and check the planet order and hair color to see if how much credence there is to the planet mixup.
