Trouble Shooter | 1991 | Blast Enemies in This Shooter! | Sega Genesis
Trouble Shooter, originally released in Japan as Battle Mania (バトルマニア), is a horizontally scrolling shooter developed and published by Vic Tokai for the Mega Drive/Genesis. It was released in November 1991 in North America and March 6, 1992 in Japan. It was directed by game designer Takayan,who at first was primarily responsible for every aspect of the game's development due to a lack of support from Vic Tokai. Over time, however, more people joined the project, and he took on a supervisory role for much of the game's design.
A combat operative Madison is assigned to rescue a prince who has been taken hostage. Players assume control over Madison (Mania Ōtorii (大鳥居マニア, Ōtorii Mania) in Japanese) who is accompanied at all times by her partner Crystal (Maria Haneda (羽田マリア, Haneda Maria) in Japanese). Unlike Madison, Crystal can flip firing positions, allowing her to fire behind Madison, and is invulnerable to all enemy fire.
GAME RECORDING INFO:
The game was scaled to 4k, without bi-linear filtering, and retaining the original aspect ratio. I also use a shader / filter that simulates a CRT Monitor (More like the way we remembered, than, the way it really was), and to use as a overlay I've created a a 3d image of a Genesis / Mega Drive game room with a TV from the 90s, to create a nostalgic atmosphere.
