Preliminary: I was a bit skeptical at first since genre was brawler and, well, NES brawlers aren't typically great. But it's really feeling more like an action-adventure and I dunno for some reason the UI and Look are reminding me of the MSX Goonies II? Hopefully it sticks. Decent tunes so far, tho the Look severely lacks and I have no nostalgia/attachment to the Devil Man series so we shall see... Hopefully the usual action-adventure hook gets me to push through.
I love that I get to play as the girl character. But uh, the Sound is quite awful and the collision masks are utterly terrible. I mean, I got through the action segments but... laughably bad for an NES game. So why do I keep pushing through? Surely cuz of the action-adventure hook. And that transforming into the Devilman is a nice touch. And the femme character's attack is great lol
But yea that started to drag. The collision masks are just terrible and it doesn't have a good Look or Sound to warrant pushing through. I finished Level 1 and decided it's time to move on. (the first boss was a joke)
