Description I guess this one needs no presentation. I believe that many of those who played Battletoads in the Nes at that time still have strong memories... and traumas of this awesome game.
Although many believe that this game was created by the Devil hinself, his creators in fact are Tim and Chris Stamper, who also brought Donkey Kong Country, 007: Goldeneye, Kameo: Elements of Power, Viva Piñata and Perfect Dark Zero to the world.
The game blew up everything we could possibly think at that time for Nes, the graphics are amazing, cool music, the levels explore since traditional 2D beat'en up to race against obstacles at a bizarre high speed, surfing or climb places, some stages needed far more than luck to go through, the enemies where easy at some moments or surprising in others (ask anyone about the yellow ducks in the sewer stages). This game was and still is brutally difficult, and it gets worse when you play with a partner, since both can beat each other and in certain stages, if one die, both return to the beggining, add to this the fact that you have no password or save point and the game presents sometimes little glitches. The only thing that could relieve the burden was the warp zones, but even so, the stages keep getting more and more brutal.

Anyway, Battletoads certainlly deserves it's place among the great games ever made in this industry, by its creativity and boldness, and for simply being... cool.

Would you be able to do a Kameo sprite? Some good and bad characters? That'd be awesome!

Well, originally, this "guess who" series was only for old characters, mostly 8 bit generation. I guess a can do a Kameo, but not for this series.

I know I finished this game as a kid, but holy crap I have no idea how. Tried it again a couple years ago and got massacred. Still proud to say I still own the NES cartridge because, " Battletoads certainlly deserves it's place among the great games ever made in this industry, by its creativity and boldness, and for simply being... cool" pretty much nails it.

The far I could reach at that time was the stage where you race down against the rat to disarm - kick - the bomb. I think that was the last stage, but never get to reach the Dark Queen.

Migael-Morningstar In reply to fernandocarvalho [2013-01-03 14:15:37 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I think it was too - either the last or second to it. If anything in the game was harder'n those damned speed bikes in the third level it's that part! Speaking of hard old games, you ever try to play the NES Bionic Commando as an adult? Also a game I beat as a kid and can't fathom how now. They were evil back in the day, but at the same time they made some legendary stuff. Most difficult 8-bit game I can think of that was still somehow fun was Ghosts'n Goblins. I don't think I even beat that back then, but I'll still try it every once in awhile 20 some years later.

Faz assim, eu não sei bem como checar os trabalhos que o grupo recebeu... Mas se demorar muito me avise que eu vou ver se faço eu mesmo uma "submissão" que se eu não me engano é automatica vindo de colaborador do grupo, ok? Mas estou certo que será aceita sem nenhum problema, está muito bom o trabalho.

Então Fernando, se vc está como cotribuidor vc entra na sessão que se enquadra o seu sprite, clica no +, canto direito da tela e coloca para submeter arte existente. Eu fiz isso com Minorin, na categoria Anime e ela entrou na hora sem avaliação alguma... Por isso que eu estou achando estranho vc não conseguir da mesma forma.

Eu já fiz essas coisas, mas o problema é que pra mim só tá aparecendo sugest a fav. Tipo, eu aceitei o convite como contribuidor, mas é como seu eu não estivesse cadastrado, deve ser algum bug de repente.

Vc recebeu a submissão da Annet na sua caixa de entrada? Acabei de submeter para fazer um teste já que era um sprite que nunca foi para este grupo. Acho que conseguiria fazer o mesmo com o seu.

Entendo... Mas não deixa de ser estranho no seu caso não aparecer a opção do submit art facilmente... As opções que aparecem no meu painel de controle são: Invite a Friend, Submit Fav, Sugest a Fav e Submit a Blog Entry! Ah não ser que... agora que eu vi que estou na lista de admins... embora eu não receba as artes que o pessoal manda para avaliar o aceite, acho que neste caso quem tem a tarefa da decisão, deve ser é o Street-Spriter (fundador) e talvez os Cofundadores mesmo.

Po##@! Agora eu tenho que terminar meu Zitz. Huahuahuahuau...
Cara! Ficou excelente! A melhor representação em pixels que eu já achei, pena que eu acho que a história do jogo, pelo menos as que eu li, que eles na verdade sejam uns moleques que sei lá como se transformaram em sapos mutantes seja uma completa besteira. Mas o jogo em si é simplesmente demais.

Obs: Depois do teu Battletoad tenho até vergonha de continuar a minha versão. XDDD

fernandocarvalho In reply to ZiR1402 [2011-11-17 15:37:42 +0000 UTC]

Valeu, eu expandi o sprite original em 300% e desenhei em cima com o que eu aprendi de CvS.
É, a história, como muitos na época, era um plágio de algum desenho ou personagem. No caso aqui, acho que as tartarugas ninjas, já que os Sapos também são adolescentes, mas eles conseguiram dar uma personalidade que fez com que eles se diferenciassem, como as finalizações exageradas. Talvez isso também tenha contribuído pro charme do game.
