Games Research

I have been looking a lot at both platform games and puzzle games to help me with inspiration for my own game's development. Here are a few videos I have looked at (mainly classic 8/16 bit games since this was when comercial 2D platform games were at their height).












Not a platform game or puzzle game but wizard themed and I loved this game (And the music)




Jazz Jackrabbit


Sonic The Hedgehog (Master System)



Sonic CD


Chuck Rock 2


Sonic 3 (Lmao at person giving stupid commentary)


Gradius (shoot em up game, but looks great)


Again


Castlevania Dracula X PSP


Castlevania GBA


Dynamite Headdy Final Boss


Another boss from Dynamite Headdy (a really weird one)


Gunstar Heroes



Manic Miner - Makes me feel good about the graphics in my game


Wardner


Quack Shot - game i loved as a kid


A range of puzzle games being reviewed


Hexaxis - A great looking (unreleased?) puzzle game


Advance Theory - unreleased outside japan puzzle game


Super Puzzle Fighter - only played this once but loved it


King of Fighters - looks cool, kind of like super puzzle fighter


Puyo Puyo (someone getting a 19 combo) - very addictive game, similar to Super Puzzle Fighter


Later version of Puyo Puyo on the PSP showing the changinge in graphics and behaviour



I feel I should leave it here...
