Loadstar - The Legend of Tully Bodine
There's only one man who would DARE give me the raspberryGenre: shooter - gallery
Publisher: Rocket Science Games
Year: 1994
System: Sega CD
Gameplay Score: 0
Gameplay Notes:
It's an on-rails shooter where you can't shoot anything. Joy. The first 15 minutes was a long video intro. It went so long that I thought maybe this was just a movie. But no, it eventually cut to a barely interactive train race scene.
Level Design Score: 0
Level Design Notes:
Imagine the trench run from Star Wars, but driving a maglev train with trash cans appearing every second to crash into you. I only shot down about 10% of these buggers. Eventually they wore down my ship and caused me to crash. A voiceover told me to drive to a particular location on my map, but I don't see a map and thus I have no idea what I was trying to accomplish.
Theme Score: 0
Theme Notes:
The cheesiest, dumbest sci-fi setting I've ever seen. Essentially you're a space trucker (get it? Load-star) with a dumbfetch quest thrust upon you and your ragtag posse of space rednecks. Spaceballs this ain't.
Art Style Score: 2
Art Style Notes:
Some of the better FMV on the Sega CD. It still looks bad but the framerate is good.
Audio Score: 2
Audio Notes:
Pew pew sound effects. Nothing offensive, but the constantly recycled voice samples get old quick.
Overall Score: 8
