OMEGA 6 The Triangle Stars

This game is like if a time warp opened up from 30 years ago and a lost pc-98 game fell through it. If the words MARINE PHILT or Season of Sakura mean anything to you, well you'll know what you're in for. If you've ever played Princess Tomato in the Salad Kingdom, you know what's up. If you made it through Nocturnal Illusion, you'll feel right at home. For the uninitiated, visual novels used to require you to endlessly click and exhaust every option to progress. There was no indication how many times you could choose an option, so you just clicked a random option until you got the same message twice and then move on. This game design has been dead for about 20 years when it was replaced with 'just have way too many words'. Every moment of this game is agony as you try to guess what will progress the story and impatiently click through text you've already read (be sure to set the speed to instant, in classic style the default speed is torture). The menus are painful to navigate. A really great localization could've made the story amazing, but the translation is only boring nonsense. And yet, I cannot hate it. Not just because the art is hypnotic but because this is not a game, this is a monument to a time that no longer exists. A time that whatever poor soul made this game remembers and thinks fondly of, but everyone else has mostly forgotten. Some day, and perhaps it has already happened, no one will remember that there ever were games like this. Games driven by a manga artist with a dream who may never have played a game in their lives but still wants to share their vision with an unsuspecting world.

I like this game! Did you ever notice how like every other character in F-Zero is a bounty hunter? This game really feels like that side of F-Zero. No racing of course, just strolling around playing Rock Paper Scissors with all kinds of fun weirdos. IDK how close I am to the end, but I'm in love with the setting, I love the combat, and I guess I'm gonna have to buy the manga when that comes out too. It may not be for everyone! The UI is a little clunky, and I've heard some people aren't into the RPS side of it. But if you can hang with that I think you'll have a good time. Be sure to switch the text scroll to "instant!" The default text scroll speed is miserably slow, "instant" switches it to the usual sort where you can press a button to speed through it.

I've only gotten past the prologue and what I would call chapter 1, but I can already say that this game is going to be excellent. It's dripping with the charm old Nintendo games had (with plenty of references too, tons of caricatures of Nintendo characters can be seen all over the place) and the characters are full of charm. I got the same feeling as playing an Ace Attorney game for the first time, but with the charm of Imamura's artistic style that is still very reminiscent of his time at Nintendo. If you're liked any of the games like F-Zero, Star Fox, Majora's Mask, or Ace Attorney, you're going to have a great time.

Criminal that a game like this is barely getting any attention. There's nostalgic games, but this game really feels straight of the 90s with its bizarre characters and plot along with whimsical, joyful vibes. Combine that with the treasure trove of top-notch artwork from the guy that made the coolest nintendo characters EVER, and yeah it's a no brainer. Gameplay isn't bad either, although it's certainly niche.

Fate/EXTRA but developed by Nintendo EAD during 1990s.

日本語のレビューが無いので買いました ファミ通の評価(妄想)だと 東府屋ファミ坊　6点 水野店長　6点 森下万里子　8点 TACO.X　4点 このくらいのゲーム 本作のコンセプトは恐らく 「任天堂がスーパーファミコンの初期に作ったかもしれないゲーム」 ドット絵は完全に任天堂を意識されていて UIの一部でSFCらしい荒い拡大縮小が使われてる 音楽も当時の音源を再現したような雰囲気 フォントはデフォルトだと当時の粗さで読み難いけど選べます 内容は古臭い…というか実際古い。ネタのチョイスが昭和である 影響を受けてるのは藤子.F.不二雄、松本零士、寺沢武一… いくらでも出てくるというか世代的にそうなのだろう ストーリーは第2の地球を探すトレジャーハンターの話だが あまり気にしなくていいと思えた 今どきのアドベンチャーゲームにありがちな 小難しい設定が大量に用意されてるゲームではない これはノリとパッションで作られてるゲームだ 重要なのは遊んでノリが合うか合わないかの一点のみ 戦闘はじゃんけんカードバトル じゃんけんに勝てば暴力で解決する これにはアレックスキッドもニンマリである パッションを感じるしかない ファミコン時代のドラゴンボールにもカードバトルが採用されていたけど ドット絵のアクションゲームでは派手な演出は無理だったので カードで勝ったら演出で敵をボコす系統ですね 今から見ると当時の演出がモチーフなので ゲームデザイン全体が8bit~16bit初期でまとまってる感じかな だが皆さんに思い出してほしいのは 子供の頃にゲーム屋で値崩れしたゲームを買った記憶だ そう！これは皆様方の本命のゲームでは決してない！ しかし…！そんなに悪くないのである！ 諸君らが昭和のちびっこに戻れば 「安いし試しに買ってみるか？」と手に取ったはずである！ 買ったかまではこのわたくしには分からない！ ちょっとだけ気になったそこの貴方！セールで594円でございました ウィッシュリストにポチーしときましょう！ わたくしから言えるのはここまででございます(買えとは言ってない)

sooooo much reading ........... i got bored after 10 minutes and the sound of the words are annoying.

Charming, charming, charming all the way! I'm only on the second planet, but I don't think anything could spoil the experience. 100% retro atmosphere, I'm just smiling constantly (like a child!). Great characters, weird & funny story, catchy music. Can't help but love it. The "combat" mechanics are a bit simple, and a bit boring to be honest, but it doesn't detract from the core experience. Made with so much love. And you can feel it.

love omega 6 feels like major throw back to the old point n click adventure pc games of 90s so much charm story is intrestn

Charming game, excellent soundtrack, oozing of that Nintendo charm. It's a shame it wasn't marketed better. It's worth playing especially if you like point and click adventure games. 9/10 will play again ♪♪♪
