Magic Bag of Food is definitely my favorite username from all the TAS submitters.

His walk animation seems to almost always be in beat with the music.

This has just solved a lost game mystery for me. Very cool game!

My friend played this game with the power glove. He died of rad poisoning.

[@MrLachek]

Totally worth it.

Totally Rad was a game with a famous localisation, redrawing the anime characters in a western style and filling the straightforward story with surfer slang. Some people like the new localisation, both ironically and unironically (i am here). Others don't appriciate the huge changes it made and consider it forced and cringey. This game also went around the 00s blogosphere a lot. One article that was shared a lot was an in-depth translation comparison. It also inspired the webcomic Kid Radd. And Kid Radd is rad. Sadly, it seems to be one of the famously oddball/weird games that didn't make the leap when ranting about videogames made the transition to video. Anyway get some Totally Rad into your life. read that old translation comparison. read kid radd. have fun. copacetic.

@allright715 Definitely! Jake and Allison had the biggest makeovers, while some characters like Zebadiah Pong remain completely visually unaltered from the JP version! Look up "Totally Rad The Rad Project" (no quotes) if you want to read the translation comparison I mentioned. Alternatively, just look up footage of Magic John (the game's JP version) to see the original visuals. The de-anime-fication is clear as day, if you see the before and after.

@goggles789 yeah about ten I'd say.

[@lindsaywheatcroft8247]

Damn. How has this game not had a vaporwave metroidvania remake?

[@SeansLipSyncingSock]

The ending music in particular is fantastic.

[@Cookieofdoom]

Bizarro Megaman

[@ApolloHoaxTheory]

"it's totally tranquil"? "all's excellent that ends excellent"? wtf is this dialogue lmao

[@Logined85]

This game was on a multigame cartridge for me back then.You would switch them with reset button.The rest of the game were as exotic as this one.Packman 3D, Burai fighter etc.In fact,I’d love to remember the rest

[@rafterscott]

Is it just me or does this feel like the game Stinkoman from Homestar Runner was based on?

[@The_Wandering_Nerd]

I think both games are heavily inspired by the Mega Man series

[@rafterscott]

@@The_Wandering_Nerd It just feels with the flippy-spinny jumps and the punch attack it’s very Stinkoman

[@NuttyBlueRice]
