Mad Stalker (Mega Drive)

[gameoverDude]

Mad Stalker, the X68000 beat-em-up with giant mechs, has been ported to the Mega Drive and just now released by Columbus Circle. This port looks surprisingly good. It's missing a parallax layer and of course has a reduced palette resulting in a darker look. BGM quality is surprisingly close to Keishi Yonao's original ST (maybe a little better actually?). Some slowdown happens once in awhile, but this is still amazing.

It reminds me of Heavy Nova and Blackhole Assault.

I couldn't quite put a finger on what game it reminded me of. It definitely has that Heavy Nova look to it.
