WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THIS

FUCKING WONDERBOY REMAKE
>>
I wish it came sooner, now I can't compare it to the original anymore because I forgot about everything

unless they just do 1:1
>>
>>340479409
Since when was this remake a thing?
>>
Cause video games are for dorks
>>
>>340479409
who?
>>
I hope we get some nice R34
>>
That new artstyle looks dope
Will probably give it a try
>>
>>340479409
>WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THIS
Probably because these threads usually ending up devolving into 'eeew, furshit'

That and there's another remake as well and fans of the original are caught between the two.

This was the wonderboy game that needed the remake the most. It was the worst in the monster world series

>>

The art style in this is shit. OP's pic looks way better.
>>
>remaking the worst/least popular game in the series

while technically you could say it needed it the most i already hate the game its based on and would rather play one of the games i'm more familiar with plus the slick new coat of paint.
>>
How does one get into the Wonder Boy series? I bought that collection off PSN for 5 burgers, but there's obviously more games that aren't in the collection.
>>
Well Wonderboy was not really good from what I played.
>>
I have been talking about it nonstop but no one around me even knows what wonder boy is
>>
>>340484669
>How does one get into the Wonder Boy series?

You play the games
>>
>>340479409
>obscure game on obscure set of platforms

it's gonna be brand new to a lot of people, me especially.
>>
>Wonderboy

I have literally never heard of this. I'm 25 years old and have been playing video games since I was 4.
>>
>>340481742
while furries will sexualize it, it doesn't delegitimize it as a game.
>>
>>340484920
Ok? Why are you bragging about your ignorance like its a good thing? Also, why do you think we'd care?
>>
>>340484920
If you had genesis or even master system, you would have at least heard of it
>>
>>340484920
too young kid, this is an NES era series. but literally more for NEC systems.
>>
>>340484835
There's a bunch, though. Are they interconnected? Is there different versions of whichever games that are better than others?
>>
WONDER BOY III WHICH IS ACTUALLY IV - MONSTER WORLD II - THE DRAGON'S TRAP
>>
>>340485082
Dragons trap and wonder boy in monster world are really the only ones worth playing. Possibly the new one being made that's not the remake
>>
>>340484920
26, same here.
Looks like uninteresting shit that will become furry shit
>>
>>340484986
I'm saying most people probably don't know what this even is.
>>
>>340481604
>That and there's another remake as well and fans of the original are caught between the two.
Why not play both? Or are you saying these are two different versions of the same game?
>>
>>340479409
Never even heard of it, but

It's shit.

Oldfag reporting in.

It's cool they're remaking this but it look shit, they don't understand. Sega/Compile would've never made it looking like that.
>>
>>340485347
this. games of that era aren't 60 hour grindfests. it's dictated by endurance and skill.
>>
>>340479409
Oh hey I played one of them before. Is it gonna be on steam?
>>
>>340479409
Would be better if it was WonderGirl
>>
>>340485404
At least they're not giving it the Phantasy star online treatment
>>
>>340485153
What about IV? It seems cool.
>>
>>340485404
i wouldn't know what to expect. the dragon already looks like garfield in the top. how can it look worse?
>>
>>340485505
I believe that was Wonder Boy 6
>>
>>340485347
it isn't a remake it is a spiritual successor like a wonderboy 4

they just couldn't use the name wonderboy
>>
Monster World IV was so much better than the rest it hurts. Why that isn't getting remake treatment instead I'll never know. The game isn't even on Steam despite having a fantastic port on ps3.
I just want more people to know about how great the game is. Re-release it ya fuckos.
>>
>>340479409
I thought the era of brown was over. What happened?
>>
>>340485581
The colors are bad, the HUD and hand drawn graphics makes it look like a shitty tablet game.

It should be bright and colorful and the character need this Sega kind of neutral face they usually had, sprites needs simetry. I don't know it's hard to explain, it's a matter of feeling and it doesn't feel right to me.
>>
>>340486010
i get you but i don't agree with everything being colorful. what you're simply asking for is more saturation and that strains my eyes, so yeah.

Oh shit, I just now noticed that.

So Wonder Boy is made by the same company, but Monster Boy is made by a different company but by the same devs who made the originals (like Yooka Laylee)?
>>
>>340479409
we already did faggot. and was the creator itself who posted the thread
>>
>>340485851
Wonderboy IV already exists. Actually Wonderboy III is Wonderboy IV.

Monster World III was Wonderboy V and Monsterworld IV is Wonderboy VI.
>>
>>340479409
I really only care about wonder boy in monster world

It's best known as a Master System game.

We all agreed it looked pretty good. Until there's more details released there's really not much else to discuss.

hudson ported that shit to everything at the time except nintendo. quite the story about the games in the wonderboy series that made branches to other series with a simple sprite swap. Higgens because Hudson made Wonder boy for Sega but sega owns the Wonderboy character.

These threads will devolve into furshit, eventually.

So, you lose either way.

Not a fan of the artistic direction - too busy for my taste.

But if it plays well, I won't complain.

Did I miss something? I thought OP"s was a remake, and the one you posted was new...

two separate games, that one is monster boy, OP is wonder boy. easy to confuse them.

Nishizawa is involved in both the Dragon's Trap remake and the new Monster Boy.

Sorry to be that guy but is there a recommended first wonder boy? Should I play them in release order?

Star with Dragon's Trap or In Monster World.

The original is very shallow, Land is bullshit to the highest degree. Fuck Land, goddamn, never again.

Because of morons like these

>>340490774
>>340490696

There's far more digital artist than there are pixel artist, meaning a lot of those people can get work making games. Those people tend to be hired for shit games because its easy money. The ones that do tend to get higher for those low budget shit games aren't as good either.

Now you have idiots who can't separate the art from the game and think digital art means it's Newground/iOS shit.

>>340491965

Are you fucking serious?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dGcKFf3Clo

Kill the Pikari doesn't look anything like Dragon's Trap. The difference in quality can be spotted in the screenshot alone. The video just makes it far more obvious.

The backgrounds are incredibly simple and repetitive, shading is flat, and the character animations are awful.

Did you fuckers call Wario Land Shake It flash shit too?
>>
>>340490540
i was referring to the image posted earlier, that looked dull as fuck because the artist didn't color key it properly.

i'm color keying it now, and if this isn't out yet I'll be fucking emailing them the color key too.

lazy fucks
>>
>>340492486
Specifics when it comes to the art is completely fucking irrelevant, they look almost exactly the same
>>
>>340492680
This might be one of the most pedantic things I've read on here in a long time
>>
>>340492486
If you make your game look like games people associate with fucking trash, that's on you, not anyone else.
>>
>>340493114
being pedantic in art is a good thing anon, otherwise you get lifeless color and shitty animation.

evangelion will show you this. some fight scenes give the strong feeling of a truly huge, giant figure fighting and flinging its weight around, while others (by less experienced animators) fall flat and just look like rubber bands being flicked around at walls.

took me a few minutes to do this.

- colors more reminiscent of the original
- font more like original (rather than that shitty thin hipster web design font, what the fuck)
- hearts are actually the same size as other hud icons
- a few other touch ups

if you're gonna remake a game, don't be lazy on the fine details.
