Gun Lord (Neo-Geo & Dreamcast)

[gameoverDude]

NG:DEV.Team has hired a team of four pixel artists during Gun Lord's development, and they said "Even the famous Henk Nieborg has a cameo".

A-fucking-mazing. They are surely not messing around. Looks like the delays got us something good.

Henk Neiborg is my favorite pixeler ever. Too bad it's just a cameo.

Release dates:

MVS: March 26
Dreamcast: June 14 (LOL, Duke Nukem Forever's release date)
AES: 2nd Quarter

There's a hilarious bit of dialogue in the trailer that I won't spoil. YOMANK for that, NGDT. The hero's wife is the pilot of the player ship from NGDT's earlier DC/NG shooter Last Hope, BTW.
The spaceship level at 5:28 has some damn amazing parallax, a huge mothership right out of TF4, and a boss that looks like Gargoyle Diver (only without TF4's blink-and-you-miss-it tail swipe of instant death). Your ship even causes a wake if it gets close to the water. TBH this is how I wanted TF5 to look on Saturn.

Right now I'm lovin' the BGM that kicks in around 2:53. It seems that GL will have a great soundtrack and may well beat Super Turrican overall. What the hell, I'll spring for the MVS version this time.

I ordered the regular edition (Dreamcast) today. It was only $47.43 shipped.

Post your impressions when you get it.

I'd like the Neo version, but LOL at the price.

Totally agree, and holy crap this looks solid. Suddenly happy that July has nothing good coming out .

The Neo MVS cart has a version 1.2 update available. A few bugs get fixed, and there's a wheel bomb sound like the one on Dreamcast. Time to get the laptop out this weekend.
