#Psyvariar mame update#
The game is an update to Psyvariar: Medium Unit. MR2151, Wasi303, Misako ADJUMY Sekiguchi, ORE808Īrcade, PlayStation 2, Yahoo Mobile ( SoftBank), i-mode ( DoCoMo), EZweb ( au) Success Networks Corporation (YM, i-mode, EZweb) If a fighter is rolling, the buzz radius increases, fighter's hit box is reduced, and the buzz collision detection is only done once every 2 frames. When buzzing causes the fighter to transform, the damage to nearby enemy units increase. The collision area for trigger buzz to occur is a circular area surrounding fighter's hit box, covering the fighter's body. Player can use this short period to risk buzzing more bullets to quickly reach the next level, or to avoid particularly difficult bullet patterns. During that period, fighter can inflict damages to enemy units by colliding. When the fighter gains sufficient experience, its level increases, and it becomes temporarily invulnerable. For each buzz, the fighter gains experience (indicated by meter at the top of the screen). If a stage is completed with only 1 credit, the high score for that area is saved in the game hardware's non-volatile memory, providing the score for that area is higher than previous record.Įach time an enemy unit or bullet gets very close to player's fighter without destroying player's fighter, a "buzz" occurs. More difficult (and higher-scoring) areas become selectable only if the fighter's level reaches the requirement before choosing next stage. After completing Stage 1 (Area 1), player can choose the area within the higher numbered stage to be completed. Fighter's level is maintained between stages, lives, and credits. Once the fighter gains sufficient level, it changes form and its firing patterns are altered. A fighter can gain levels by buzzing of destroying enemy units or buzzing. In the beginning of a game, player's fighter is AXION 001. Player's fighter has a hit box of 1x1 pixel at the centre of fighter. In this firing mode, the fighter fires in concentrated forward formation for a brief moment. Rolling shot: Press fire button when rolling.Rolling: Rapidly moving the joystick in opposite directions.I'm not into the other bullet scrappers I played, but Medium Unit is unique enough to keep me intrigued. Maybe the roll button does break the balance somehow, but at least the game's playable with a pad. I mean, thus far only a couple of bosses' confetti patterns got interlaced with fast shots, Psikyo way, posing a threat typical of shmups. I'm still not sure if I really like it (when delicious buzz chaining happens it feels almost too easy, like a phony shmup of sorts, and when dying happens it feels ridiculous, like getting killed by a slow bullet in Raiden). In other news, I'm FINALLY kind of getting a hang of Medium Unit. Think of it as an extra game mode and get over it. Without it the game would be broken for those of us who don't own a stick.

Is that so? MAME says its native resolution is 480圆40, but it looks like upscaled from less than that whilst running in MAME.įinally, I'm not picking on anyone, but why the addition of roll button in the PS2 Psyvariars is considered a flaw by some is beyond me. How the arcade original fares compared to the port, by the way? I suppose it runs in lower resolution, without interlacing and the PS2 texture streching.
The blur induced by it at default 75 is worse than the flickering in my opinion. My message to the people who complain about the game's visuals: in screen options set AFF (anti-flicker) to 0. I'm bumping this thread because it's about technical aspects of the PS2 port (PAL version in particular).
