Another one for SORR is slow but it was always meant to be tepid, 1:1 fan service. SOR4 would be a fairer comparision, and there's no allowances for how dogshit that is. @SaddlingBlaze91 is right, this has flow for days.

It's jarring to have a new block system in a game you're very familiar with, whereas the roll was in OG3 already. Muscle memory thing rather than button thing basically. Anyway, offence is the best defence ;)

Although I can never remember this game has it, Axel's guard is a bit Power Rangery. With his chin tucked that tight, ear muffs with both hands would make more sense. It's cool you appreciate suggestions @Kratus, some would be a bit precious about it. Break definitely looks improved now.

Tight controls @Halcyon Ways. SOR2 meter was too much for now, bit more practice and I probably got it. Ravey one.

I'm not good enough nor have the patience but yeah, can see how it can be done. I am getting absolutely fucked on 1 with the dominatrixes + acrobats, nevermind no deathing it. Slightly modified behaviour and enemy abilities, right @Kratus?

Don't say that, it'd drive me mad trying to do it. You may be right with combo trapping and cheap tactics actually, but I've never seen the appeal in playing that way.

Thanks, think I've put in as much work on the mixing as I have getting good. I've no intention of trying by the way, but is a 2x mania no death run possible? It looks like there's at least a few points where you have to give up a life.

SOR3 2x enemies run, specials cost health. And 2. This broke my d pad and it's hard as nails, salute @Kratus.

This is real. Still doable but some of these baddies in 3 will fuck you up if you misstep.

Oops. disregard about SOR2 specials then. And don't get me wrong, the juggling is massive improvement but it does need some vulnerability. Probably because I've played some Virtual Pro Wrestling recently but backtakes or countering could make things more tactical. @Halcyon Ways I'll give it a try.

@Kratus since you mentioned fine tuning mania difficulty, I did play the previous update with double the enemies but still too easy. Think the juggling overwhelms the computer. Maybe SOR2 specials with a health cost and or the AI blocking/countering would help?

Inching closer to 40 minutes.

It's all a sophisticated mix of what was in the charts and clubs back in 91/92. 3 does the same with then brand new waves of jungle, gabber and hardcore. Total feedback loop from the club to the console barely repeated; I've only heard of Namco devs referencing clubbing for Ridge Racer's soundtrack.

Yeah, there's loads. I've gone for the opposite, darker and harder than 3. Just finishing up mixing now.

That'd be cool, thanks. Maybe I can share the playlist or do a video playthrough if anyone's interested. Past 50 minutes, 40 probably pushing it with Axel.

Playlists. I've been toying with a mid 90s Belgian and UK techno sound. Still interesting, but 1 & 2 are better when you don't realise how derivative it is. Go Straight:

Dunno if it's possible, but would be good to have a total customisable soundtrack, ie. stage 1 street song A, stage 1 bar song B, boss always song C etc.

Timeouts were just on those two specific bosses. In fairness none of these are gamebreaking, I've gone through ten or so times fine. I only play mania so that can alter enemy behaviour. Meant to say a palette changer ala SORR, top, bottom, shoes.

Mea culpa. Only BOR game I've ever played was Streets of Rage XXX when it first came out.

Played 2 and 3 on and off for 20 years, this is flawless. Do have some suggestions though. Grabs are hit and miss near the edges of the screen. Vehelits' health needs dropping or its activity sped up, Jet stage 2 same thing, had a few time outs. Enemies not engaging or lagging behind seems to...
