| history | Shadow Force - Henshin Ninja (c) 1993 Technos. Ninjas with the ability to possess their enemies must use all means at their disposal to save themselves and those that they defend! Shadow Force has 6 buttons : 2 for punches (low and high) 2 for kicks (low and high) 1 button for jump and 1 for posseding an enemy. You can obtain various attack moves holding down up or down and press the buttons for punches and kicks. Is ever possible combine the punches and kicks attacks for obtain some differents combo, even the enemies can do the same, but the number of their attack is general less various compared to the heroes moves, even the combo are more limited for the enemies. - TECHNICAL - Game ID : TA-0032 Main CPU : 68000 (@ 14 Mhz) Sound CPU : Z80 (@ 3.579545 Mhz) Sound Chips : YM2151 (@ 3.579545 Mhz), OKI6295 (@ 12 Khz) Screen orientation : Horizontal Video resolution : 320 x 256 pixels Screen refresh : 60.00 Hz Palette colors : 16384 Players : 2 Control : 8-way joystick Buttons : 6 - TRIVIA - The subtitle of this game translates from Japanese as 'Metamorphosis Ninja'. A Technos billboard featuring Kunio appears at the start of the Construction stage. - UPDATES - The Japanese version is different from the US Version : - The game's sequence in attract mode are different. - During the attract mode, you can see the events that bring the Dr. Wong and his evil organization 'Theaser' to menace the world. In the US version this sequence has been cut. - There's a characters descipition during the attract mode. - You can use only 3 keys in the game : one for punch, one for kick and one for jump, to possess an enemy press A+B when your close to him, and press A+B+C to execute the special attack. - The enemies are more easily to beat, even the bosses suffer much damage (so, the game is a little bit easier) - The Bonus Stage after each stage has been cut on the Japanese version. - The standard color of the Coyote character is different. The US version has at usual the 'winners don't use drugs' logo during the attract mode. - TIPS AND TRICKS - * To possess an enemy, go close on him, then press the 6th button, now you can use that enemy like a playable character, and you can use his moves too! (a screen appears with a descripiton of one of the enemy moves). For leave the enemy body and return to your normal character hero, press the same key. Try to control different enemies and have fun to switch on them!! Find what of them are most powerful and how you can take advantage of their moves! Remenber that you can't possess a boss, and also you can't possess nobody if your lifebar is empty; also, when the enemy possessed dies, the player is still on action, but is lifebar remains empty. * When you engage an enemy, you fight still versus one of them, and in that moment you can go back and foward on him without turn your shoulder on him, you can also execute a block when the enemy attack simply press the opposite direction on him. If you engage groups of enemies, you fight one enemy at once, while the others stay far of you waiting that you defeat the first enemy before they attack you. * After you've beaten the last boss, Dr Wong will challenge you giving the chance of one last battle before you can terminate the game : this final battle is identical to the bonus stage, but you can choose one of the 4 boss to fight versus the other character boss controlled by CPU. This is the only moment on the game where you can control a boss. If you win this last battle you can see the real final of the game, if you lose you'll obtain a game over. - STAFF -
