Parodius is a series of horizontally-scrolling shooters developed by Konami. The games are tongue-in-cheek parodies of the Gradius series, hence the name (Parodius is a portmanteau on "parody"' and "Gradius"). It also parodies many other Konami franchises and games, including Antarctic Adventure, Taisen Puzzle-Dama, Castlevania, Thunder Cross, Ganbare Goemon, Xexex, Lethal Enforcers, Tokimeki Memorial and TwinBee.
Parodius Da! ~Shinwa kara Owarai e~ (パロディウスだ! －神話からお笑いへ－?, lit. "It's Parodius! ~From Myth to Laughter~") is a shoot 'em up arcade game and is the second title in the Parodius series produced by Konami. The gameplay is stylistically very similar to the Gradius series, but the graphics and music are intentionally absurd.
This game is often mistaken as the original game of the series. The lesser known original game, Parodius, appeared on the MSX computer (in Japan only).
The year is 1992. Not much time left in the 20th Century, and all over the world people have lost their hopes and dreams. Government officials only care about getting rich themselves. Children now love their computers more than their own mothers. Even though young people sense the imminent destruction of the human population, they bury their minds in the thrills of the game center. But the root of all the evil is too horrible to speak of, for it lies in the gopher-faced, headbanded, Great Octopus.
One day, our octopus friend gets into a fight to the death with his old rival, the Bug. Our octopus wins and people start to call him Mr. Parodius. On his paid vacation, he goes to the countryside to enjoy a little farming. Returning to our ready-made octopus pot, he reads the "Universe" newspaper and nearly falls off his chopping board on surprise.
There's a picture of the mysterious Great Octopus with the Earth in his arms. "F...father?", he stutters. It was his father, who had disappeared just two years before, never to return home. His old friends, who had seen the paper, rushed over.
"Vic Viper"... Retired after the war on Dimension Three's G-World. Runs a home for the retired. Age: 58.
"Pentarō"... His hobby is playing with air guns. The child of penta and Penko. Age: 9.
"TwinBee"... One twin from the set. Has a cute face and is a formidable foe, able to destroy enemies easily. Age: 17.
How strong can a gang of this size be? They're lots of fun, but can't be relied on. Whatever happens is not their fault. So Octopus sets out on a search for the truth and with his companions begins to travel the world!
