Blood Bros. (c) 1990 TAD.
In the far west, ruthless bandits terrorized the good people and is up to you to stop them and their vast weapon arsenal in order to bring peace to this troubled land. Features destructible background objects and lots of weapons! Despite the western concept, this game features almost identical mechanics to TAD's previous shooter "Cabal". - TECHNICAL - Main CPU : 68000 (@ 10 Mhz) Sound CPU : Z80 (@ 3.579545 Mhz) Sound Chips : YM3812 (@ 3.579545 Mhz), OKI6295 (@ 8 Khz) Screen orientation : Horizontal Video resolution : 256 x 224 pixels Screen refresh : 60.00 Hz Palette colors : 2048 Players : 2 Control : 8-way joystick Buttons : 3 - TRIVIA - Licensed to Fabtek for US manufacture and distribution. A bootleg of this game is known as "West Story". - TIPS AND TRICKS - * Here's A Way To Play Blood Bros. For As Long As You Want : 1) Get to the second screen (preferably without dying on the first screen). 2) Shoot the building on the right side of the screen and start shooting the trees in the background on the right. 20,000 points fly out from each bunch of trees. Continue. 3) That is basically it. A few problems occur and here is how to counter them : 3a) 5 men run across the back from the left and throw grenades : Just shoot the grenades before they get to you. Eventually they come out less often, and will stop altogether. 3b) The men on the right come out from the edge to shoot you : Same as above. They stop eventually. 3c) A plane flies over and drops bombs : Same as above. It stops after some time. 3d) After a certain amount of time a bird comes out to kill you : Let it. Only 2 birds ever come out (sometimes only 1) and then they also stop coming. This is why it pays not to die on the first screen. 4) Hold your finger on the button to keep shooting the trees (sticky-tape works well here) and prepare to get 'really' bored. Play the neighboring game so that you can keep an eye on it. * Extra Live : On the 1-1 and 4-1 stages, the tin can be shot eight times to give you a free man. If you miss it, don't bother trying again - you only get one chance. - SERIES - 1. Cabal (1988) 2. Blood Bros. (1990) - STAFF - Program : Dai. Kohama Direction : Hiro. Kakiuchi Graphic : Jun.

0.36b1 [Carlos A. Lozano Baides, Richard Bush]
TODO (West Story): - Sound (program rom is close to the original) - Some bad sprites (2 bad sprite roms, should the actual decoded data match?, can they be reconstructed from the original?) - Tilemap scroll - Runs too fast? (vblank flag somewhere?) NOTES : - Coin inputs are handled by the sound CPU, so they don't work with sound disabled. Use the service switch instead. - Sky Smasher: Game does not appear to have cocktail mode. The screen hardware is undoubtedly capable of flipscreen and layer priority flipping however.(which is why we have GAME_NO_COCKTAIL despite the games being upright) WIP : - 0.36b1: Added bloodbro.c driver and vidhrdw\bloodbro.c. |
