Spiritual Warfare is unironically a really good Zelda clone, gently caress you all

Is that the one that had the Fruits of the Spirit as your weapons? Nothing quite like throwing super-slow moving apples at gang members, greasers, and gamblers, only to be attacked by the demons possessing them.

Get the bananas or an extra pear, apples are for scrubs. Also don't go in the bar or casino, the angel in there will jack your belt and you'll have to go find the pawn shop in the slums to buy it back at a high price. Fruit doesn't even matter in the late game anyway because once you get the Sword of the Spirit, you can just throw it and it explodes on impact. You also have infinite of these too, and you need to throw your exploding sword to kill Satan at the end. Soon you will be a pro at Spiritual Warfare and you will go to Heaven when you die :angel:

Also to get to Satan you have to go through the Demon Stronghold which is a lair full of lava and demons all over the place, so it's basically Hell. Don't go there without getting every key in the game or else you will have to backtrack like crazy. To get to Hell you have to bomb a particular place in the Prison, I can't remember where but it's not too hard to find.

Also turn off the music and blast your own jams because there are literally two songs in the game - one that plays everywhere and one that plays when you pause. The ending song sounds different at first but it's just one of those two but sped up.

I love talking about this game, I'm not making up a single part of this post and I'm absolutely standing behind saying this is a truly great and well made game that nobody knows about. There was even a Gameboy version which was the same thing as the console versions which made for an enormous game by GB standards.

Game rocks, check it out, you can blow through it in like 3-4 hours if you know what you're doing.

So there were a lot of unlicensed copies of hardware/software used by these companies to make these, does that still go on at all?

Yeah but to a way lesser degree, NES on a chip systems are super common in those plug-and-play TV games that came in the shape of N64 controllers, dance pads, etc. Then you've got stuff for retro nerds like the RetroZone carts for homebrew games and the Retron series.

Stuff like this:


Also how the gently caress do you do 50 posts a day, hol-ee poo poo

Megami Tensei and its spinoffs are pretty great for that.





What happens if you try to milk Satan's big fat cat tats
