It's good timing, my new boyfriend was just asking me about this game recently because he was thinking we should try it together. I gave him warning how hard it is and that he may want to practice first just to get comfortable. This will be very helpful in giving him a rundown of what to expect and how to deal with situations, I think.
Not sure how many people are aware of this, but you can actually destroy the cainsaw maniacs very quickly with the gorilla potion simply by positioning yourself inside of them and punching. You can tell if you are doing it correctly as they wont blink or flash at all and they should die in a couple of hits without falling on their backs.
At first I thought you were British, but about 1 minute in and I realize you are southern/country. This is easily my favorite game from the SNES and Sega Genesis era. A friend and I reached the 40 something level where you fight the giant spider, and the game glitched out and we couldn't progress any further. Basically robbed of beating the game, the one and only time we made it that far. It's level 46 or 48 or something like that.
Yeah, the first giant spider boss is on level 36, and I've had that happen to me too, it's a bad glitch that can really screw you over as you know. Hopefully you can come back to the game now and knock it out with some time and practice :)
lol no wonder I never got past level 2 or 3 as a kid hahaha. this game is crazy man. great sound track. Always get instant nostalgia when hearing that music.
@@Skyhurricane89 it really did one of the best in depth videos on a video game I thought I was one of the only people to notice those little things like the zombies will eat the people as soon as you move the screen etc but you noticed little things like that and especially with the weapon selection it was great
3:27: There is another way to kill the Jelly Blobs that you didn't mention. Freeze them, and then you can weed-whack them to get rid of them. ;) Oh. And you can also get them stuck in trap walls.
+Joseph K. Oh yes I know about that method, but it was going by so quickly that i didn't have time to mention it before it went on to the next enemy, lol! I had put the montage together and then commented over it afterwards.
Awesome thank so much for this. One tip for megadrive version is that to switch weapons or items you have to hold the A button and then use the B or C button to cycle through them.
Awesome! I have only completed this game with Game Genie. Maybe halfway through without when I was a kid. Recently dug up my old SNES, took it apart and cleaned it. This game is definitely on my todo list!
@@Skyhurricane89 UPDATE: I’ve beaten it at least 4 times now and the goal now is seeing how many levels I can get with all 10 neighbors. Been watching your let’s play and it’s been super useful. You sir, deserve a subscribe!
+Joseph K. I'm glad you enjoyed this! Honestly, I was very tired when I did the commentary for this, but I went for it anyway as I wanted to do it! I probably should have waited a few more days, but I think it turned out good for the most part :)
That is true! You'd think it would deal quicker damage to the giant spider as effective as the cross is on other enemies such as Frankenstein, werewolves, mummies, etc.
@@margaretsherrill9432 Is the martian bubble gun good on the giant spider? I don't think I had much luck with that when I tried it in the past. It is good on the little spiders though :P
thanks for this. I've been playing it since I was a kid recently rebought it for SNES after having it for genesis for along time but I got rid of that copy. Then last time I played it super casually but I got further than I ever have before so hopefully this will be the little boost i need to finally finish this mamma jamma
+yoshipwns001 Good question! That level is not in the original ZAMN. It is the bonus level for level 39 in the Oh No! More ZAMN hack entitled "Problem Child." I also include my game footage from the Ultimate Hack, the Beta, original, and even my own hack.
Hmm. I feel I've seen something like this before. Is this what you were working on the other day when we were conversing via texts? But, since it's ZAMN material from you, I will enjoy this thoroughly. :)
The password system is OK the first 2 or 3 times. After that, you will have difficulty towards the end. Especially if you go straight to the last 4 levels.
@@gamewithgreg I'd go for the password GLZJ for starting on Level 29 as the max. That massive house level gives you 2 medical kits, 1 red monster Potion, 2 boxes of inflatable cl8wns, 1 weed whacker, 1 holy cross and 1 bazooka to collect plus the random luck of hidden cupboards to collect additional goodies and 4 dollar bill stacks for points
+Joseph K. Yeah I have too before. It depends on if you can get him oriented so that he is moving at the top horizontally and you throw the plate horizontally into him. Many times, a single plate will go through a whole phase if you can get the perfect hit.
+Joseph K. No, I just know most of them from years of playing this as a kid. I forgot to mention some due to lack of time, such as the werewolves and purple ants which both take 10 shots. If you freeze most enemies that is reduced by half. For example, if frozen the werewolves would take 5 shots I believe.
I absolutely loved this game since I think I was something it was made in the 1993 so I'm 32 right now my birthday coming up soon maybe in 5 more days and I'm going to be 33 and I think I was something around 20 or 10 I really don't know but I do know I was somewhere around 20 but not 10 idk why I put that down
7:11 I was like raising 1 eye brow and I was like ehh and level 45 died 6 times every time but now since I practiced I beat the game and level 7 I'm usually scared cause sometimes there could be werewolves and the sound gets me
@@margaretsherrill9432 Yeah, it took me a long time before I beat it too! Pretty much played it non-stop from 6 to 8 years old when I finally beat it at 8. Didn't have any other games to play, haha
Also I have a game called roblox and during level 4 theme I sometimes play a game of zombie attack cause the theme sounds nice/and I usually play in first person mode and I usually do cmds and cmds are real cool I've been doing a lot of scary/blue guest trolls/alerts/btools/bans and kicks and u can get robux to get all those other cool stuff I'm 3m robux rich I love that game and zombie attack reminds me of level 48 and 4 and 7 XD
+Joseph K. It sure is! I took clips from my Beta playthrough, my hack playthrough, and our co-op of the Ultimate hack. There were also a couple of my other older videos I included in there.
@@Skyhurricane89 I knew there were aspects about this video that I didn't recognize. Question. Is the flamethrower from the original game? I don't recall ever finding that weapon.
@@tomahilaire3921 Yeah, it is in the original SNES version, behind the skeleton key door with the bonus in level 22. It is not in the Genesis version though.

+Joseph K. Yeah, it seems like I've had them kill more pool guys than anything, lol! But honestly, the vampire is not likely to kill your neighbors unless you are careless and it's more likely that they'd do it by swirling into the victim.

@@oldmanreyko9644 Ah, I know what you're talking about now! You mean that some of the levels you do not recognize from the original. They are actually levels from Zombies Ate my Neighbors hacks. I've made 3 ZAMN hacks myself. You can go to Romhacking.net to find out more.
Oh yeah buddy, if you made it to 32, you should not have any problem beating this! I definitely recommend starting at the beginning and not using passwords though as you have limited ammo if you do. You got the boss on 36, but remember to use the weedwacker (or flamethrower if you have it) and you should be fine :)
Skyhurricane Yeah I heard that. What I have been doing was using the bcdf password to start the game with the day of the tentacle so I can have the bazooka to unlock it again in level 1. That way I have a decent amount of ammo and hopefully enough lives to make it to the end. Oh and thanks for talking about that flamethrower. I need to keep that in mind on level 22.
