GENESIS - COMIX ZONE [Night of the Mutants]

*Special- Shaolin Kick
*No savestates
*Full playthrough of Comix Zone.

Innovative concept from the SEGA Technical Institute. Exemplary music and sound effects by Howard Drossin

NOTE:
====
While my skill with the combo system & my newfound ability to complete the game in one sitting have significantly improved, I've also gotten extremely rusty with this game since I first owned it back in 1995 on the SEGA genesis, & so I've forgotten most of the later puzzles.
The Episode 2 boss, Kung Fung gave me a hell of a lot more trouble than he ever has and he definitely had me on my toes towards the end.
I don't use Roadkill too often on the Morgana enemy just cause she's one of the easiest to juggle enemies of the gameand its too much fun beating the crap outta her.
the green Mutant Brood enemies are complete punching bags.

TIPS for the PROS:
==================
I use Jump-Ins (jumping in attacks) to break up the enemy's defense before I start an on the ground combo
-----------------------------------
Successive high kicks (UP + FORWARD + ATTACK) on the ground finish in a skull craking jumping stationary kick
--------------------------------
Use the jumping forward kick to "floor juggle" a dead/downed opponent (Easiest to perfrom on Gravis). It adds insult to injury and is a little move I try to use whenever possible. But be careful you could actually revive the foe if your'e sloppy with this showboating technique.
---------------------------------
Enemies can inflict damage on one another stand back and let them duke it out over who gets to scalp you
---------------------------------
The edges of the comic book are deadly, use your attacks to knock enemies through breakable panels or you can actually push them off of the page- once they're squeezed behind a panel wall they're instantly killed (works best with groups of 2 or more).
----------------------------------
Screeches can be killed easily with an uppercut and a single jumping attack. Exception- the flying screech in the second to last panel of the game will take more hits
------------------------------------
Hold down the attack button for 30 seconds to use the Paper Airplane secret attack- Sketch tears off a piece of the comic's own pages and uses it against anything and everything in its path. Use with caution this move takes health and can inflict massive damage on enemies and you if you get in the flight path of the plane.
--------------------------------
Rapidly crouch for a "Sketch-fart"
--------------------------------
Stand idle for a "Sketch & sniff" animation

you know you can do the scissor and shaolin kicks manually by pressing down,up and punch(scissor) and up,down and punch(shaolin)plus back,forth and punch for shoulder smash.this way the game becomes much deeper.

[david2draw]

yeah I was aware of that. I just like to have it at my disposal that much quicker with a single buttonpress and I'm not a big fan of the manual blocking setting

[anthonygamer]

Loved the music in this game. I think you should be able to rip out a piece of the background and create a very powerful paper airplane. I forgot how to do it though.

[david2draw]

to do that secret move hold down A for a few seconds. Yeah I remember way back when when I first did that me and my big brother were all COOOL!!!
