You should gain sanity for finding out that the problems of a region are because there are fucking monsters there.
I want one.
He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

Cannon Dancer/Osman (US name). The STrider 1 team made it for Mitchell Corp when they left Capcom, so it's the spritual successor to Strider 1.Shrapnel wrote:Yo, Ogre, wot game is that?
Takes place in the middle east, I've seen it described as "NEO ARABIAN CYBERPUNK". I'd describe it as "JODOROWSKY'S STRIDER, STARRING DIO BRANDO"
One of the main combat mechanics is 'after images', which keep on attacking in place after you move away. Strider 1 had that as a rare powerup but Cannon Dancer makes it a core mechanic. When you power up your genie pants change color.

Plot is you're Kirin/Osman, a mercenary hired by the (American?) government to kill off a religion called "Slaver" which has been spreading through the Persian gulf, they worship the "God without form".

"Clash" mechanics in weapon games (attacks hitting each other cancel each other out) are fun. This one happened in an actual tournament:

I still remember Daigo vs Justin Wong. That might have been the most beautiful thing that ever happened in a Street Fighter III game (not that hard, since III kind of blows).OgreBattle wrote:"Clash" mechanics in weapon games (attacks hitting each other cancel each other out) are fun.
