Playing Super Xevious: GAMP no Nazo for the Famicom, extracted from the Steam version of Namco Museum Archives Volume 2 with MArchiveBatchTool and played in Mesen!
Not to be confused with the arcade, GAMP-less "Super Xevious," according to Wikipedia, which also says:
- SX:GnN was a flop
- subtitle means "Riddle/Mystery of GAMP"
- "GAMP" is a supercomputer that took over after an ice age froze the world and its inhabitants 'p'
- GAMP = "General Artificial Matrix Producer" 'o'
There are "puzzles" in each stage. Some clouds mysteriously teleported me in the first stage, maybe that was the "puzzle"? And enemies were hidden under them. ;PPP And the second stage looped until I managed to bomb every single ground target.
Never liked Xevious' shoot/bomb thing, the power-up system and puzzle thing added are baffling, the graphics--other than that they're reasonably fast, and full-screen--aren't doing anyone any favors, and the 1-second-loop music and screechy SFX made me want to stop playing REAL fast. |
