    Wow, this looks fantastic for 1991
    Great visuals, mood, plot, sounds and music. The boss explosion effect is iconic, with the world map on it. It's also nice to see the stages progress in this natural way, where the end of one level leads straight into the next

    And that isn't the only boss that's based on a real-life creature.
    The other example is the third boss, "Daio and Gishiin".(Daio is the beetle, while Gishiin is the big creature.)
    It doesn't take a genius to figure out that Daio is based on a dung beetle, but Gishiin's inspiration, on the other hand, is far more obscure.
    Gishiin is based on a prehistoric crustacean known as the "Opabinia".
    (In fact, Gishiin practically IS a giant Opabinia!)

      @BuyMeThingsnow 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      oneida I've been playing it more lately too, and while I still think there's absolutely positively no way anything ever will top Rayforce, Metal Black is a really great game and I think the reputation it's gotten is very undeserved.
      It has some (arguable) flaws, and I can see how it's not to everyone's tastes, but there's some absolutely fantastic level design, and it all really clicks once you get to the super tight and aggressive stage 4 and beyond.

    • @LuisHGarcia
      @LuisHGarcia 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +oneida Yeah, there's magical about Metal Black beyond the gameplay in where the simplicity of how it plays (it's solid) is part of the draw. It's everything. The surrealness. The soundtrack. The atmosphere. It all...Just works for some reason.
