This was my favorite shooter when I was just a tadpole. This is also the game that got me interested in sci-fi, space horror and body horror. Cheers for this nostalgia bomb, mate. 🙏
i managed to beat this game without dying under 25 minutes. This game is really hard. As far as i am concerned dying even once is not an option. You need all of you power ups and shields maxed. This was achieved through practice. This game demands concentration and perseverance. If not, just put the controller down. I wont judge you. I remember squeezing my controller so hard i would hear the insides crack. The difficulty of this game is not for everyone. I Watched my brother turn into a human tornado over this game. Trashed the entire room, then my mom swiftly threw her chanckla em and seriously beat his ass for it. Control yourself while playing this game.
It was very difficult to get back on track after losing a life. This is the kind of game where you spent your weekend mastering every level, one by one. It's a very unique, amazing shooter, so it was worth it. And the ost is a blast too.
@@M75248 You know it man. This game was no joke, and that's a definite on the OST too. Its part of the reason why I kept going. The game was really good all around. Its just really f,kn hard. Id imagine kids flipping out worldwide over this game.
I never got past the guardian commander thanks to that damnable teddy bear thing that would jump onto your ship and drag you across the screen. Good job SS.
Never been a fan of games with grotesque biological nightmare stages as a kid, even today they still make me queasy. Though i have to admit they are creative
@@lankymaccrazyhair264 I barely believed it either, but yeah it was made around the beginning of RUclips's life. Makes sense with all the audio and visual crudiness, though.
Seeing that the game had a license from Milton Bradley/hasbro, makes me wonder if it's based in any cartoon or toy line. ... Because oh boy is this game bloody and grotesque
In the 80s, video games were a hot market, and Milton Bradley wanted a part of it. Instead of developing their own games, they went to Japan, and started licensing games that were not set for release in the USA. Unfortunately, this also meant a lot of the games were either very hard, or unknown, and so didn't sell well.
@@joshpart3319 this was done for cars too in the 80s. Suzuki couldn't sell cars in the US at the time so Chevrolet imported them and called them Geo's, and shared the profits with Suzuki.
@@noapparentfunction yeah, with the cars i was Aware of that, actually it still happens at least where I live e.g. there's a sedan sold by Dodge that's actually a Mitsubishi
What happens with the last boss Parasitis? Looks like you are receiving damage but I guess you arent, with the blinking bullets and ghosts I cant be sure about it
09:17 that is some great hit/collision detection. Other than thay, the game is on steroids. I really like it. The fact I haven't heard of it before is beyond me. :)
I resorted to save scumming via emulator to beat this one. I was completely drawn in by the art. I also wonder what this. Setting done with metroid style gameplay would be like...
See those ghosts alongside the final boss? Those are the disembodied souls of your people, who perished when Parasitis devoured yours and their planet, Abadox. They blame you, "You did this! You let this happen!"
The original Japanese has Abadox the name of the conflict-a combination of Abaddon (the demon Nazar is put in mind of when he begins his attack) and the Parasite X postulated as what apparently turned a human into Parasitis. I think the human was Nazar and Maria’s unborn son. Maria is a variant of Miriam/Mary, Nazar as in St. Joseph the NAZARene, Maria is implied to be an early victim of Parasitis…So Abaddon or Salpsan possessed the embryo/fetus and constructed a miniature Hell around Maria to render Earth an eternal nightmare.
It can only be a joke, kill the last boss without suffering damage and even with a bug hindering the game. I found this final battle a little suspicious
Old timer here. I can confirm that the hit detection in this game was weird and sometimes it bugs when there's too much shit on the screen. You either go "Why did I die?" or "How the fuck did I not die!?". It's more notorious on the later stages.
I often wonder if These games like Abadox and Heavy Shredding, ect weren't originally planned for NES rather maybe they had once thought they were going to stay in the console market and make a 8 bit Intellivision....
The second to last boss is just called five eyes?Probably because another boss is called the All Seer and they didn't want to reuse the same name twice.
@@ToetoebaMost bosses don’t have their official names recorded in either manual-just Bau and Deathface in English, Big Hearts (3-2) in Japanese. So most of these are extrapolation by Shadowserg.

@@TheCow-j1l I remember 2 having weird hallucinations
@Tom Sawyer some people just take things too literally.
@Tom Sawyer ok
@SeanTron What do you mean?
Imagine the amount of memory required to graphically fit so much detail into one game. It has a different aesthetic compared to any other NES release.
I have a love/hate relationship with this game.
graphically, it is an astounding early title. but it flickers like hell and is insanely difficult
yeah graphics looks awesome for that time, i never heard about this game in my childhood.
"The game is notable for its unique visual design, as the game takes place inside the intestinal tract of a giant alien organism" - Wiki
I thought so.
Like in Life Force?
@@ikagura LIFE FORCE!
Wouldn't call it an early title. Early stuff is like Gyromite and Trojan. This is like middle of the life cycle
@@chiarosuburekeni9325 it however lacks the polishing that some mid-late games had
The little leg wiggle when you fire made me smile as a kid. It still does.
I absolutely love how surreally grotesque everything is in this game. Good stuff!
I can't believe this game was made by the same developer of Harvest Moon
They also made S.C.A.T.
@@Nathan-rb3qp I'm enjoying that for tje first time on the Nintendo's Switch.

I still remember the commercial for this game. The kid getting covered in guts and cheerfully exclaiming how gross the game is. Oh man good stuff.
This game is so crazy, the living tissue, guys with xenomorph heads, ghosts, and I love the pixel art.
And from what I extrapolated from the Japanese manual, you’re effectively fighting the Antichrist.
The amount of nightmarish bizzare stuff they could pack into an 8-bit game is truly impressive
This make Contra bosses look adorable in comparison. Is amazing
I never got past the guardian commander thanks to that damnable teddy bear thing that would jump onto your ship and drag you across the screen. Good job SS.
HOLY DAMN.
I thought it was a new game emulatin' the NES feel!
THIS IS *AWESOME.*
The good ol' grey box was capable of doing some amazing things when on the right hands.
Another episode in the endless struggle between man and meat...
This is R-Type + Contra
The music definitely has that old school Konami feel to it.
@@M75248The composer, Kiyohiro Sada, did in fact work for Konami.
I honestly like the designs of the levels and the enemies which are close to body horror
I asked, and now I receive! And it's sooo clean too!
Thanks!

Such smooth fps. That's not that usual on the NES. This game has some talented programming.
Gotta love the obligatory escape the planet as it blows up segement
One of my favorite childhood games.
So much fun as kid playing this. That era was awesome. Astynax was another game played all time with this game.
Anyone remember when ACESpark did a Boss Run of this game 12 years ago?
That was 12 years ago?! Dang that makes me feel old

Not RUclips, but I remember a period when a lot of videos on Gamespot were convinced this was the hardest game ever.
@•Pixelboy127• Shit is crazy
Abadox, aka "That time you ate some magic mushrooms and played R Type"!
Whats impressive is you did the whole thing with only speed upgrades, that requires a good amount of patience, gg!
Always wondered what my nightmares would look like in 8 bit
懐かしいです。アバドックスグロテスクな細胞やエイリアンが印象的でした。あの頃のFCは斬新な物が色々出ていて面白かった。暴れん坊天狗やファイナルミッション、いっき、忍者ハヤテ、エクスターミネーション、エグゼドエグゼス、コスモギャリバン、あの時代に戻りたい！
I agree.
Man the bosses in this game are gorey and kinda spooky looking. Makes me wish they made a movie out of this lol.
Some games are created to break the player, yet some players obsess with perfection and end up break the games.

I was looking for this in your channel just last week, I was SURE you'd already done it..... weird!
oh hell yeah! abadox!
This Game gonna call "the new bosses from Terraria 1.5"
What happens with the last boss Parasitis? Looks like you are receiving damage but I guess you arent, with the blinking bullets and ghosts I cant be sure about it
As someone who played this back in the day, I can confirm that the hitboxes were weird. You'd go from "Why did I die?" to "How tf am I still alive!?"
Oh damn, right in my childhood.
This guy has God-like reflexes...
I didn't know there was a NES port (and a very good one) of this overlooked but very fun arcade game.
Huh? I don't think there's an arcade version of this, it's an original NES title.
@@DukeOnkled I think you're right. I think I confused this with an arcade game which I don't remember clearly.
@@DukeOnkled Uh, yes! I think I confused it with Baraduke a.k.a. Alien Sector.
1:23 When you're too tiny that the boss has to pop his eyes out to be able to see you.
It's me or in the second stage before the boss is the Contra background music?
Both games had Kiyohiro Sada on audio staff.
This game feels like salamander,R-type and X-multiply all together with the level design and looks of the game.
09:17
that is some great hit/collision detection. Other than thay, the game is on steroids. I really like it.
The fact I haven't heard of it before is beyond me. :)
This is ye old Natsume. Back when they made baller-rad action software! Nowadays they don’t do shit! They don’t even make Harvest Moon anymore!
I never heard of this game before in Asia it’s very interesting
*"Hello There My Friends!"*
Hi
General Kenobi !, you're a bold one
This game looks terrifying!

As a Spongebob miscellaneous character once said:
"MY EYES!"
Everything looks like living organism. But exploded like a machine when destroyed...
My nes did never do that annoying sprite flicker is that because u use the US Version?
also, I wonder why most of the bosses shoots blue projectiles that looks like crystals
Surprising that this got past NoA's censorship.
Also that flashing when you hit a boss? If yoy can tune that out you're a better man than I am.
I didn't notice it until you pointed it out. I'm a lady too so, maybe I'm just not as affected. Dunno.
Oh this Game, is so cool
Shadowserg had the stomach to battle in the belly of the beast.
Spessman: pewpewpewpew!
Boss: mota mota mota mota!
I have watched a lot of no damage runs you've made. Eff this game why does it look so hard?
It can only be a joke, kill the last boss without suffering damage and even with a bug hindering the game. I found this final battle a little suspicious

SIDE ARMS (CAPCOM) +SARAMANDER(KONAMI) and a pinch of R-TYPE(IREM), I guess
what happen if this game have 2020 standard remaster.......

Usted es una persona de cultura 👍
Could've sworn it was Lifeforce just from the thumbnail.
Japanese sure love their seizure inducing flashy effect
6:55
dude no way you dodge all that
Omg the boss at 5:15 gave me so much anxiety to watch
So, the protagonist is kind of big mecha robot?
He bring the princess with his "mecha hands".
🤣🤣🤣
La musica suena mas a Konami..estilo del juego en cuanto a la tematica alienígena y sonora muy similar a Súper Contra
im surprised its not made by Konami. it has all the same sound effects and music style of their contra and other games
Kind of reminds me of Gradius.
Looks like a mix between Salamander and Contra
Summer of either 89' or 90'used to beat this like every day, so much fun.
Someone should remake this, I just wanna see creepy body horror stuff but with more pixels
I like this game
避けるのが上手すぎる
Epilepsy warning!
Whoever said this game is body horror, has obviously never seen me in real life. LOL
At 3:38, look closely at the lower left.
Man oh man did I hate this game way back then. I barely beat this one back in the day. I never played it again after beating it twice.
I bet this game takes place on Planet Remina.
The second to last boss is just called five eyes?Probably because another boss is called the All Seer and they didn't want to reuse the same name twice.

I could not go through stage2 when I was a child.
Insane not to take damage from All-Seer.
The designers definitely had an eye fetish.
Cool
The screen flashing is ridiculously unfair. And the aesthetic is disturbing.
That flicker is insane tho.
Natsume? Creator of harvest moon?
This game like "final mission"
plz put a seizure warning tho.
I never heard about this game! Why???
Wait what natsume made these? The same company that created harvest moon
So, Lifeforce, then?
Looks good
Cilia looks wierd
