The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
Though it may have been overshadowed by Resident Evil: CODE Veronica a few months after release, Carrier still manages a decent survival horror experience. It doesn’t stray far from its RE-based roots, but it does show signs of the genre finally stepping into the next generation with 3D environments and refining manual aiming and movement.
Neofid Studios followed up its impressive Genesis debut, Demons of Asteborg, with a game that leans heavier into action while adding random dungeon layouts, multiple characters, and cooperative two-player gameplay. Astebros builds on a solid foundation to create game even better than its predecessor.
The debut title from Neofid Studios checks a lot of boxes of what you’d expect from a quality aftermarket title, and though not perfect, it’s pretty darn close. Classic side-scrolling action with some light RPG seasoning makes for a game that every Genesis owner needs to have, and it shows just how far homebrew development has come.
Shellshock may not be groundbreaking, but its simple and entertaining gameplay offers a decent burst of enjoyment for those willing to stick around long enough. It’s a flawed but enjoyable shooter that stands apart from more serious simulation games just enough to make it stand out. If you haven’t played this one yet, give it a chance and see if it grows on you.
GGS Studio Creation and Broke Studios launched a franchise with The Cursed Knight, a wonderful mix of genres that delivers a solid does of old school gaming. It has charm, great presentation, and that wonderfully frustrating gameplay we all know and love. If you’re looking for a new edition to your Genesis library, look no further.
