Good lord such an awful game. I can't stand why I wanted to play this. Why did I play this? Actually I do know why, I played the other launch game on the Sega CD and just couldn't help but not look. I should note because I was so baffled of the gameplay I switched to Genesis to see the differences and it was basically the same with worse sound. So I finished that cause I was too lazy to switch back.
Heavy Nova is just not fun at all, I can see what they were going for with this weird action and fighting game. This just was made too early or maybe Micronet just sucks at making games, idk. First off the movement is stiff and just not fun like you either have awful control of your movement or you go at rocket speeds and have trouble stopping.
This is also part fighting game with the bosses and I don't get it at all. You have like moves you can learn and stuff and there's a stamina meter? It feels so flawed and tbh I don't even know how I won any of them. I had to spam throws so idk if that's how you people also beat the game. This is somehow less enjoyable then the first Street Fighter like how do you even manage that?
There's also only like 2 missions too I was almost worried the game would be too long but no once you do 5 levels in mission 2 it's just over and I felt relieved to know it was over.
Can someone please explain to me just how this got approved to be a launch title for the Mega CD? Like I'm not kidding when I say this, the intro is the best part of the game. I'm being serious, the japanese vocals are actually nice to listen to even if there isn't much. Why is this the best part. I feel so in disbelief this game was made. Why was this given a Genesis release in the states. There's a reason they brought over Sol-Feace for the CD as a bonus instead. It was so much better of a game.
I think what saddens me the most is I think this could be done good, it's just not executed good at all. It's a disaster of a game that does almost nothing right. With the genesis version not even having the CD intro song, it really has no redeeming qualities. I'm not kidding when I say this but this might be my least favorite game on the console, even worse then DD 1 and 2 on the console. Even Awesome Possum was better YEAH I SAID IT! Screw you Micronet, why did you gotta hurt me like this?
