👉 Longplay of the ZX Spectrum 128K version here: • ZX Spectrum Longplay |...
Several versions have been purposely discluded as they are emulations of ports already featured in the video.
We found two J2ME versions and both are included in the video. The first on the list has better graphics details and in-game music.
Regarding the Android / iOS version, we wanted to show us gameplay of its two game modes. The casual mode features double jump and offers better rewards in chests.
Which one did you play? Which one do you think is the best Arcade port?

Considering the platform and some of the similar platforms it was up against, I was actually impressed by it. It’s one of the few without faces in the trees but that was always superfluous anyway. It scrolls horizontally and vertically and doesn’t take you out of it with portals and shops to hide transitions like the Master System version. The character sprite looks nothing like Arthur but the animation is smooth. They even got flourishes like the superfluous rain, which many other versions were forced to leave out. It’s a compromised version, for sure, but it’s still one of the best games for the platform.

Also the SuperGrafx version was 8 megabit rom card as opposed to the MegaDrive being 5. In those days that was huge as most ROM carts averaged 4 megabits. The MegaDrive version could have been much better but it was also an early gen cartridge on the system.

@txray3409 3 жыл бұрын

@@landom9080 Megadrive games used LZ compression schemes, because they had more work ram. SGX and PCE did not (and had lesser efficient compression schemes), so it's not an apples to apples rom size comparison. Finally, the SGX version doesn't use all 8megabits. It only uses 7megabits of the rom. The SGX also uses 3bit color instead of 4bit color to keep the rom size down (meaning each cell only has 7 colors instead of 15 colors) - the SGX version could have looked even better. SGX version also has a higher res than the Genesis version. The SGX doesn't just have better graphics, but it also has more frames of animation than the Genesis version. The play controls are tighter on the SGX. The sound is subjective though - some like the PCE/SGX sound style over the Generic YM2151 sound of arcades of the time.

If you want to experience the game in its most closest form next to arcade than the Sega Saturn version is probably your best bet. The PS2 version compilation has a dark color issue where the backgrounds are darker. The other issue with the PS2 version is that it runs in 480i while the Saturn version runs at 240p. I don’t get why they did this as the PS2 can display games at 240p. The X68k was pixel perfect as it was a development system for Capcom. That’s why it could reproduce perfect arcade ports of Capcom’s games, like Final Fight..

To say that the C64, ZX Spectrum and Amstrad versions were stripped down version of the game would be putting it mildly. The Genesis version was great and the SMS held up well.

Ok so in my opinion the music is extremely underrated for the Amiga. Holy damn is that sound track beautiful.

@Asterra2 3 жыл бұрын

Hmm. I'd say that by no means is the Amiga soundtrack "underrated". It's well known and well respected. But at the same time, it's also arbitrarily different from the source material. Only two of the tunes out of the entire soundtrack take any cues at all from the originals, and even in those cases, it's not long before the music starts doing its own thing. With that having been said, I've always wondered when somebody would do a cover of the level 2 music but incorporate the entire musical sequences from both the arcade and Amiga iterations. They're pretty different but share enough material that it could give a nice result.

Sharp X68000 is the first one that really sounds true to the original.

Weird, I used to play a completely different version on the C64, it even had the proper score. It was called Ghosts n Goblins (1985). Makes me wonder why the music is so different it's Gouls and Ghosts varient.

16 bit version goes to the Super GrafX which matched the Arcade and 32 bit versions but the Genesis/MD and 68000 versions were almost on par. By far the best 8 bit version was the Master System version.

The Amiga music honestly feels like really early CD Quality Video Game Music, most of the game's memory must have taken that music.

The ZX Spectrum version is better than I expected, yet I still wonder what they were thinking when they released this console

@talideon 2 ай бұрын

It wasn't a console, it was a challenge computer. What they were thinking was to release something affordable by normal people at the time, which meant forgoing a lot of niceties in the original Spectrum such as a proper sound chip and providing colour via attributes on an otherwise monochrome framebuffer.
