![]() You are constantly gaining new feats to get stronger and take down enemies easier, it’s got a fantastic flow that keeps you coming back for more. ![]() You have a ton of different tools to handle any situationĪs you progress through the game you accomplish feats that give you more moves like at 9:00 when I gain the ability to slide on walls. Special Attacks consist of Shurikens for further enemies and even a way to blast tons of fireballs above you. The MEKADRAGON is no joke and will take a lot of concentrationĭiving a bit more into the overall experience you attack enemies with the Katana and you gather SP to use special attacks. One of the coolest aspects is how the enemies come into play to enhance the overall gameplay.įor example at 29:30 when I’m fighting the MEKAGRAGON you have to break flying enemies so you get a foothold to stand on the water and get some attacks in. This means that you need to get up close and personal with all the various enemies throughout the game, while also dealing with the many bosses. The gameplay in Cyber Shadow is very reminiscent of Mega Man-style side scrollers but instead of a Mega Buster, you have a Katana and some Shurikens. Cyber Shadow Wears its Gameplay HeadBand Proudly When it comes to gameplay it’s time to get serious! I was consistently impressed with all the visuals, the enemy designs, and the sheer amount of creativity that is jam-packed in.

The cutscenes are nothing to gloss over either as they all come in letterbox style like an old samurai movie. When you’re cutscenes remind you of retro Ninja Gaiden you know you’ve got a winner Looking at the cherry blossoms falling from the sky to the way every character has a specific look and unique dialog the world feels lived in.

It feels as if this music would have been another game’s soundtrack back in 1990. The music is so good, it sounds like it was ripped right from the SNES and enhanced to be in this era.Įvery area has a different tone, every boss has an epic battle song and the sound effects have the perfect amount of compression that just sounds right. The graphics, the music, and everything come together to make a real impression and hit on all the nostalgia fronts. ![]() Join me as we dawn our Ninja Headbands, sharpen those Shuriken’s and jump into Cyber Shadow to see if it’s amazing!
