Never knew there was a Ghost in Shell game.

I wonder if you can play it on PC with an emulator using M+KB?

[-] bhamlin@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

It'll be tough. If I recall correctly, it didn't use the analog controls. You used L1 and R1 to turn, and vertical aiming was done doom style (i.e. the game did it for you).

This is a game that needs a modern remake, and we will never get one. This game is why the fuchikomas disappeared and we see tachikomas now. Legal bullshit.

what what? guess I'm just a casual because I never knew this. what's the difference, and was it like, production company changes or what?

I don't remember the specifics, but the production circumstances of this game are why the mechas changed, and I think someone still owns some of the IP associated with this game. And they're just... sitting on it.

But they changed from the spider bots (fuchikoma) to octopus bots (tachikoma) as a result of the legal drama. Real talk, not much difference aside from what they call them, and the color. And in stand alone complex the octopus bots had a sticky web they shoot. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

There are multiple. I played the one on an Emulator where you controlle tachikoma and it's a nice short experience (if you use quick saves for the bosses like me)

Of course you can remap the controlls. I don't think there's an emulator that doesn't have keybinds. I recommend duckstation for ps1 games.

Vimms lair probably has the game info.

Video Game Art

Video games are not mere time killers. They are albums of sound, aesthetics, animation and narrative.

This community is in appreciation of that. Screenshots, fanart, animations, gameplay clips. It is all welcome here.

The one common thread should be an eye for the aesthetic. This is not a place to discuss mechanics or stats, but to show off simply the artistic, expressed through the video game medium.

  1. All rules of the parent instance apply. That is, sopuli.xyz
  2. Include the name of the game your post is associated with in the post title.
  3. If your post is fanart, include a link to the artist in post body, if you can. You may also ping @saucechan@ani.social to have it attempt to find the source for you, and provide it in a comment.
  4. MARK ANY TEXT SPOILERS, as for art, do not post content that outright spoils key moments of a games narrative. Content that can only be understood with the context of having played the game, is ok.
  5. No generative AI art.
