'Video Game Anthology Vol. 4: Libble Rabble'

[X68000] [JAPAN] [MAGAZINE, PARTIAL] [1993]

"Libble Rabble is a 1983 game by Namco Ltd. The game involves surrounding enemies using "Libble" and "Rabble", magical items that are passed down in the village, but it is also a popular masterpiece with hidden secrets and three-dimensional fun, such as catching fairies to create miracles, growing plants, and searching for treasure chests. The arcade version required special controls, such as using two levers to control the Libble and Rabble, but the X68000 version comes with a special controller, allowing you to enjoy the game with a similar feel." ~Ad Blurb

Beautiful! ~ Curveball of Sean Kingston

Season 4 Episode 1 No Album Release (Read More) Game Over - Namachuukei 68

Ripped by pedipanol / Saria Lemes

For as omnipotent as my SiIvaGunner knowledge can appear from reading this blog, I do have several blind spots. A big one of these surrounds the Touhou series - a franchise so big I cannot even begin to go into specifics, yet one that has its origins on Japanese home computer systems. These systems are very much forgotten by the general retro gaming sphere, thanks to how region-exclusive they were, yet several big companies of today such as Capcom, Koei and Konami all played part in their regional successes. And though Touhou had its start in the late 90s PC-98, as opposed to the early 90s Sharp X68000 of today's discussion, the overall sound of these rips and the rippers that favored them has always felt similar.

Beautiful! ~ Curveball of Sean Kingston sort of serves as a way for me to appreciate this distinct, immensely charming sound of these systems, without any sort of experience or existing fondness for them, Touhou, or any other franchise closely tied to them. The source material feels almost ludicrously obscure - a Game Over theme to an old annual Baseball game by Konami - yet it hardly matters given the intents of the rip. Arranging one of my all-time favorite SiIva memes, Sean Kingston, into such a uniquely beautiful instrumentation, was enough to make a rip that completely enamored me on first listen. And yeah, it is but one in a sea of similarly high-quality rips from rippers like Princess Sylvyspirit, Lenox and pedipanol herself - yet this was one of the first I've been able to truly connect with. With this rip and more, I now know just how much I have left to learn about old PC-system music, and just how incredible it can sound.

And yeah, I know its a little dismissive to boil down all 90s-PC game music from Japan into just Touhou, but it WAS how I was effectively introduced to the scene's prominence and popularity - in large part thanks to SiIvaGunner and its prominent fans! I feel that this rip is only scratching the surface of what these rippers have to offer, and that alone excites me! How many other golden rips like Beautiful! ~ Curveball of Sean Kingston are there out on the channel - especially ones without album releases?!

And on that note - holy shit, the discovery I had upon checking who made this rip! I've been a fan of Saria Lemes' work for a good while based on her work on indie games and Twitter, yet never drew the connection between that name and her online alias appearing as a credited SiIvaGunner ripper. It's mind boggling to realize sometimes that, yes - SiIvaGunner has become a legitimate platform for people looking for a career in music to practise and experiment before going professional. Be it Dante and MtH now working on indie game projects, or Ahmaykmewsik being the lead behind a project all his own - its immensely inspiring to see, especially given how long I've been collectively following all of these people through the channel.

Nevertheless, no matter how much success befalls any of my favorite rippers - I hope they all remain aware of just how much their work on SiIva continues to inspire me and thousands more the world over.

Double Eagle is a golf simulation game. The tagline "2way Golf Simulation" refers to the two game modes to choose from. • GOLFLIFE is career simulation. The player's character starts out 20 years and 1 month old and with 100 yen, and has 30 in-game years to win tournaments, move up the Japan and World rankings and advance up the classes (Amateur class, Professional Class B, Professional Class A and Professional Class S) before retiring at age 50. There are four stats: physical, mental, technic (technique) and fatigue that affect your performance. To start out you need buy or rent a club at the golf shop. Extra money can be earned by doing one of the three side jobs. At first there is light work, hard labour and caddie, moving up the classes lesson, TV booking and commercial become available. Each job pays differently as well as affect your stats, most notably increases fatigue. To get rid of fatigue you can rest at home, hot springs or hospital. There's also three training options: gym increases the physical stat, image increase mental stat and course allows to practice on courses, thus gain technic. Each action advance the time by one month. The game features 40 tournaments, either two-day or three-day with all participants playing 18 holes each day. Some tournaments also require a qualifying round for the main competition. On the course you're joined by 2 or 3 AI players. • PLAYGOLF allows 1-4 players (human and/or AI) to play an 18 hole round.

Final Zone is the 1990 Sega Genesis port of the Japanese game FZ Senkai Axis. The original was on the Sharp X68000, which was a far more capable system then the poor little Genesis. Weirdly, both of these versions were developed and released around the same time. Likely meaning that one version was a little neglected. Guess which one?

Later in the video, I'll also be getting to the Sharp X68000 version - which I, amazingly, got to run.
