Some pretty bizarre Kusoge action, there. The strangest boss has to be the metal triceratops with more bad guys coming out of his mouth than it's physically possible to fit inside.
Thanks for the upload. I agree with the last sentence in the description. Just wanted to add: The sound design - both the music and and sound effects - is a torture on it's own. No bass, soft 8bit era shooting sounds with elevator music in the background. The animation is acceptable most of the time - at least for that era -, but there are some cases like the 4 frame animation walker at 4:00 that makes this game hard to watch... even muted.
The attract mode music before you insert coin was taken from the arcade game Gauntlet. The 2nd level boss at 4:00 is an AT-ST walker from Star Wars. The leaping black panthers on stage 3 are from Castlevania. The 4th stage boss at 8:30 is Jabba the Hutt resting on his pallet with his tail curled up. The stage 5 boss where you fight against the Hind helicopter in 3rd person view at 11:25 is from Rambo III on sega Genesis. Lastly, the music at the end screen after beating the last boss at 20:37 is The Ecstacy Of Gold from the Clint Eastwood movie The Good,The Bad & The Ugly
Birthday 1994, age 16. So this took place in the future of 2010. I knew all bets were off when Mount Rushmore wrapped for the third time. I did not, however, anticipate the AT-ST, nor the final boss to be a forklift.
This looks like a spin-off of the 1988 video game The Adventures Of Captain Comic. Like it takes place in the same science-fiction future world universe. I know that the story of Spark Man is not connected to Captain Comic, but it has a very similar strange and weird dark sci-fi comedy feel to it, just like that other video game also does, too.
If you look at the before game information screen on Spark Man, it shows them as both male and female. I wonder if this is one of the earliest games to show this.
Looks like a lazy mashup of Data East's Robocop arcade game with Rolling Thunder... with a ton of 80s movies ripped off for their aesthetics. I kept waiting for an answer as to what that electric finger touching that robot lady's nose was about and... nothin'!
Que raro un juego que no conozco ahora es mi pregunta es ¿stars wars? ¿rolling Turner ? ¿robocop? No es cierto son muy extraños nunca haya visito bueno siempre que pasan una joya en juegos de su época.
Honestly I thought shooting the pilots to crash the boss machines was pretty neat..though yeah the game as a whole is deranged. Tbh that's why I enjoyed showing it to my friends when I played it in MAME! But if I remember right I had to cheat to beat The Forklift...
🎄⛄🎁🎅 All the best for New year 2024! P.S. What is your opinion about number of views in the latest weeks? Me, I observe much less viewers. Is that the same on your channel?
this is like the slut of arcade games,besides whats already been mentioned bitta operation wolf,cabal as well,what a weird game 🤣 thanx AL82 keepem coming🤟
A moment of silence for those who actually paid good money to play this.
This CRAP precisely 😂
It's like playing Rolling Thunder on a 2 day crack binge.🥴
There are many things in this abomination I cannot explain.
That's not an understatement
😂LOL that nose scratching at start
ACHOOO
I didn't know this game, thank you very much for the video.
2:58
Ahh yes !
Who doesnt remember the best diner around town called "dicks"?
Makes you wonder what's on the menu
That looks like Robocop 3 on home consoles, but even worse.

The fact you have a word (Kusoge) to describe this mess intrigues me. What does that mean?

Hyper realistic almost to the point the US Army would use this as a simulator.
Weku weku wekuweku

You forgot the ditty at 0:24 that is clearly a ripoff of the main theme from The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.
You forgot to read further where I clearly identified the music and even provided the name of the song
Spark Man is really a run-&-gun shooter that plays much like a hybrid of Rolling Thunder, Contra and RoboCop. Awesome! 😊 Hats off to AL82.

And don't forget the Evil Jabba The Hutt as boss! And i think the Helicopter is from Rambo 3.
I believe these are the same people who made Hard Head 1 & 2, also arcade games with strict music resemblance(at least for the prequel)
You're correct, both are made by Suna electronics

Why the horse??!!!😂😂
Hey...WHY NOT? ಡ ͜ ʖ ಡ
@@WhoWereTheDancingIsraelis you know what, after mulling it over.......why not is right!
The suna electronic game has a very strange sense, but I keep remembering why.
The most crackly game at the arcade.
That swiped Hajime Sorayama art though
The 2nd boss is an AT from Star Wars and the 3 is Jabba the Hut ??? 😅😅😅
The game could have been named "Weirdocop" 😄
It might have curbed expectations a lot better, actually!

very strange game lol Star wars boss, weird music and sound effect, short life :D One the best japanese mad game ^^
😂 이거 한국에서 만들었어
Star wars boss?
There are two of them: walker and zombie Jabba.
@@OdaVenom yes, sorry my english IS bad
@@techronk선아전자 ㅋㅋㅋ
@@OdaVenomIt’s 4 stage boss
This kinda to the Rolling Thunder games
So Sparkman is androgynous, as in depending on one's interpretation the hero could either be a man or woman?
"Not A Word...!"

Oh wow this looks trash. I'm gonna download it right away!!
What did you expect from a Korean developer that has the name of a Muslim sacred book?
シュール過ぎる
this is Korea game
Looks great i think it could have worked as a terminator game after a few tweaks.
Terminator?! It doesn't even work as a Spark Man game 😆
It just reminded me of The Terminator on Sega CD.
lol, holy shit, this is a South Korean rip off of NES Rush'n Attack by Konami.
Looks like a crap version of robo cop
bad plagiat of "rolling thunder" 🤣🤣
