Not many platformers on it, especially 3D. Tomb Raider if you count that but that's a genre better represented on other consoles.';

'>>10883187
Burning Rangers counts, right?';

'>>10883195
Yeah it has some really nice movement. Shame there was never another game like it.';

'It's willy wombat. It's always been willy wombat. Everything else is just a lie. If you want to have fun with this kind of game on Saturn, it's time to play willy wombat';

'It’s not really the platform for that. Speaking as a Saturn fan.';

'Just go play willy wombat then come back and tell me any of that other shit is better';

this game looks really good but the controls are so-so. overall it's fine';

'bug too';

Fuck this game. It's impossible to get your bearings and gauge distances and the placement of traps and enemies unless you constantly move the camera; but now the traps are starting to get so close to each other and so fast you don't even have time to do that';

'>>10883787
I believe in you anon trust in your dreams and in the heart of the cards and you can do anything';

'Half of the time there is some shit blocking your view too and restricting your camera use';

'>>10883187
As someone who likes the Saturn, its lineup of 3D platformers is a joke, and it really doesn't have anything resembling an answer to the likes of Crash or Mario, especially because the PS1 and N64 simply went on longer got to advance the genre with stuff such as Banjo and Ape Escape. That genre isn't the Saturn's strong suit.';

'As a kid I loved exploring the Nights levels on foot. So this gets my vote.';

'You guys need to understand that there is a huge divide in 3D games made before and after Mario 64. PS1 and Saturn just really are not built to play serious 3D games. The PS1 slightly overcame that by developer willpower, the Saturn absolutely did not. The Saturn is a "3D" system, in the same way that the Atari Jaguar is. Capable of doing basic polygon visuals? Yes. Capable of doing post-Super Mario 64 3D worlds or PS1-tier stuff? No.';

'>>10883836
This is why it's just better to upgrade to Dreamcast. You've got Sonic Adventure, Jet Set Radio, Rayman 2, Spider-Man, Tony Hawk games, Super Magnetic Neo, and more. All major games the Saturn missed out on. Saturn is really just more of a fun curiosity.';

thank you for bringing the scrimblo bimblo perspective to this thread';

'>>10883187
This isn't Saturn's best genre, just like N64 isn't good with RPGs or arcade games.';

'>>10885129
What is the Saturns best genre? Arcade ports?';

'>>10885142
RPGs and arcade games, I suppose.';

'>>10885142
2D shooters, the absolute peak platform for them
Sega racers
2D fighting
Sega 3D fighters
RPGs and strategy
Mecha games
Late-era pre-mobile puzzle games
Dating sims and visual novels
Cute girl mahjong
Lots of arcade-style action and compilations.';

'>>10883459
FUCK no';

'>>10885173
add:
3d fighiting
2d fighting
light gun games
racing/driving games
action/adventure games
sports games';

'>>10883454
I dunno, the controls seem fine for a character without legs';

'>>10885129
It isn't, but it does have some saving graces like Ogre Battle, Paper Mario, Star Fox, and Sin & Punishment. But Saturn doesn't have a truly standout 3D platformer, no "saving grace" for that genre. Maybe Croc? Or Sonic R, if you really want to stretch it. They should've just cancelled that game, tweaked the handling, and made a 3D Sonic game with its engine.';

You gotta slow down at points. It's like a mix of Crash Bandicoot and Gauntlet.';

'Steam Gear Mash is isometric platformy.';

'You memed me into playing this shit, I swear to god if Bug is just as bad I'll never listen to another Saturn rec again';

'>>10886574
Bug is bad and so is Willy Wombat. Either that or scrimblo fans are desperate';

'>>10886574
It's good, not Mario 64 or Spyro good, but that's a solid ass game. Bug isn't even close to being on the same level, at least not the first one. To be fair I still need to try Too';

make sure you play Bug Too and not the first one (Bug). first one is really bad, Bug Too is great.';

There's no reason why sega couldn't have turned this into a full game. Frame rate would have probably been burning rangers tier but still.';

'I finally got one of those Hudson s-bom controllers to look into whatever the hell this does';

'Well it turns out you don't need a Hudson controller to interact with the Hu things. I think they appear in all past levels when you beat the game. OR they appear in a level after you've collected everything else there. When you collect a Hu pickup, it puts a red flagpole by the level on the select screen, probably marking the level as having been fully completely. The one in the past pic is from level 1 in the room with all of the powerups you've unlocked. You reach it by hitting the yellow switch at the end of the level and backtracking. There's also a little easter egg at the end of the path behind the Hu pickup. The pic on this post is from level 2. Anyways, I guess it's an excuse to play more willy wombat';
