@kabuboost455 I am looking into making it to animaritime aain this year, but cmmissions/requests are always availabe. Just let meknow, and I shuld be able to whip it up and sell it to you!
Season 2 was always going to be one, I just took a break in the ummer/early fall to get thing straightened out, and I had a catastrophic epuiment failiure during the atlantuc heatwave. The plan was always to launch the new season on the anniversary!
@KollisionBR I wish... My iMac died, meaning no powerful video editing for a long while... plus, all of my important BH files are on gthe ahrd drive buried in it... BH will have to come back in 2011.
So glad to see some more Bullet Heaven! I'm also glad to see that you're getting the props you deserve, too. I don't even play bullet hell shooters and I love watching the show! It's amazingly informative, interesting and so well produced.
The second you started up Kolibri all I could think was, "This looks like Ecco the Hummingbird." Very beautiful game.
@RyHoMagnifico I wish I could continue, but my video editing machine finally gave out after an intense heatwave crippled it in September (it killed my previous laptop used for Video capture...) When I get a new Mac (which is currently set to happen in early 2011 unless I receive enough donations) I'll be back in action... for now though, Bullet Heaven is once again on hold... And that sucks!!
Kolibri looks so beautiful but the version for my region (EU) can be multiple hundred pounds, if it ever pops up at all that is. It doesn't help that I'm a big ecco fan. This is way high up on want list.
@SanshinOfStirling The big question is... with the NTSC version work on a PAL machine?? From what I can tell, the JP and NorAm versions are interchangeable.
I enjoyed enjoying ecco 1 back in the day but when i revisited it recently i hated how ecco controlled and found it very slow and boring. Kolibri looks like the game i should of played instead of ecco :-)
@TrevHead10 I'll be honest, the Ecco-style of Kolibri had me doubting its shooter status before I actually played it, since Ecco too controls somewhat similar (albeit quite loosely). I'm glad I was able to be proven wrong! The scrolling stages and power-ups were the clinchers.
Bro!..thanks heaps for the shoutout it's an honor and also to be mentioned among such great company!..
I want a 32x for this game alone!..it looks magical and simply amazing (in all departments)! At least there is a pal version(didn't know previous to this) even though it's pricey..there's hope!
Awesome shoutouts, i sure wouldn't be here if it wasn't for ppl like Cyanidebreathmints. Overall the "shooter community" here on youtube is just amazing. Great dudes and dudettes for sure.
Kolibri looks ace! Especially the backgrounds, very well made. It will be at the top of my list when i get my hands on a JP 32x.
@lostSUND4Y I agree, the shooter community definitely rocks here on YouTube to say the very least!
I was surprised at just how colorful this game is, even in the caves. This is still the genesis, after all. But most of all, the music stood out to me for sure. It definitely has a lot more depth than your typical Genny/32X game!
I have kolibri good game, but cant get past the waterfall, i cant find the wall breaking power up mentioned in the manual, really good graphics, though.
@squirm13 In fact, all you need to do is fly straight to the end of the level left from the start, and grab the spinny orbs. Then, head right and fly down the waterfall to the bottom, then dart under the frog at the bottom hanging a left! And watch out for the chameleon (O_O) Hope that helps =)
@narox Thanks man, I had a lot of fun making this one. I decided to use some flashy screenwipes for this season. And Kolibri is pretty good, so it's a pretty easy sell to begin with =D
Oh, and don;t mention it; you gave *me* a shout, so it's the least I could do!
I enjoyed this review! The only question that I have is whether the gameplay changes when you play in coop mode. Some games will double the amount of enemy AI when you choose the two player option. Does this game do this?
@segagenesis1989 The enemies are increased, especially the ones that drop multiple power-ups. I forgot about the 2-player coop, even though I told myself to remember... Fail. I'm too out of practice to play 2 players at once right now anyways though =P
@Serraxor Ok then..Gradius was too far out there, let's go with Insector X..with birds. Oh and I added you to my "Best LPers in the Business" section on my channel
This game is actually very surprisingly unique, I think I may need another game to add to the 32x collection.

Looks like a cross between Mr Heli, Bangai-O and Ecco the Dolphin. Interesting.

Well this is certainly surprising. I never even heard of this game up until now. Never actually played 32X to begin with, though..
Anyway, great video. ^^

YES!!!! Its great to see you again!!! Honestly, I was sad when season one ended, but I glad that you are continuing with a second season :D
(btw, are you going to have a table again at animaritimes 2011?, cause I have a few ships that I want to commission you to do XD)

I don't think any game on the genesis can beat Verytex's music. It's just too superb.

@cyanidebreathmintz Whoops! Sorry for the late response!!
How could I not give you a proper shoutout? You've done so much for me and my channel that it was the very leas I could do!
Hopefully you can play the North American version of Kolibri, where the PAL version is three hundred big ones.. (O_O)

The thing that impresses me the most about Kolibri is the graphics. Looks like a neat unique take on the genre.
