We're old asf I couldn't even walk back then. I only got to play the Sega genesis version. Of course I didn't know there was an arcade version until I went to college. They had a modded ps2 and they were playing a franchise mixup. It played like dark wizard but had all of the Capcom characters. Forgotten worlds was a part of that but strangely only the shop girl was the playable character to represent Forgotten worlds.

If you had a controller with "left" and "right" buttons you could approximate the rotating dial the original game had (the dial could also be pressed down to shoot, but you might want the regular X button for firing the gun so you can aim without shooting).

Glad I'm not the only one who thought "Flying Contra" (also the money/shop very much like Xenon 2). Wonder if this game was originally going to be a platformer very much like Contra (maybe too much like contra). They then decided to change it to a side scroller shmup. The fact that the players and humanoid enemies don't have jetpacks or anything obviously making them fly (also those Anubis enemies just doing a walking animation even though they're jumping around).

You need a joystick, and a rotary dial that could be pressed down to win this game. Not sure you could approximate this on MAME unless you knew a VERY good cabinet designer.
@theodorehsu50232 жыл бұрын
@goggles789 I am glad I could help. If I remember right the dial doubled as the "fire weapons" button so you only had just needing the joystick and dial. Otherwise you needed a mechanic that allowed rotating your character so you could aim (pressing one button while rotating the joystick) and then fire without risking you pointing your gun in the wrong direction. If you had two buttons where one allowed for rotating, you could possibly approximate it without a dial, which might have been how they did it for Genesis and if a joystick had 2 button action for Amiga too. But you need to know what button rotated and what button fired your gun.

I built a MAME cab pretty much for this game about 15 years ago - started with a cheap ebay 'die hard' cabinet with a nice CRT, used a PC to JAMMA adapter and a 'clickable' USB volume knob. It was a labor of love though - actually had to tweak & recompile mame to work with the dial. Hopefully it would work better these days with a more modern one..

Going to be honest. A game with Forgotten worlds in the title evokes surreal worlds and strange imaginative environments and enemies. The first two levels (especially the second) felt like it lived up to what I was expecting. But by the end of the 3rd world that magic was gone. I simply lost interest in the game when it started becoming Egypt themed. The game felt plain and boring from there. Strong start but fell flat fast in the imagination department.

The flying stone is an item that allows you to control the speed of the movement of the player in the game. There are 3 three settings regular normal, silver fast and gold ultra fast. So I am assuming that by having the stone you might get so fast that's you'll get dizzy and seasick as the dialogue may imply. I have zero knowledge who Mesketit is. That is some of the strangest dialogue in game. It is littered with it in game but you can't fully enjoy the game without it. It is my favorite game of all time.
