[炎の格闘サラリーマンヤッタロー/Flame Fighting Salaryman Yattaro] Good Ending No Continue Clear [CC Commentary]

Описание: Game Center CX 1+2 Replay is a satisfying sampler plate of surprisingly full-fledged indie-ish faux-retro titles! These are tied to the Game Center CX name, as an overly simplified explanation, Japan's Angry Video Game Nerd. Much less angry, but it is as influential.

Let's focus on the brand new game for the remaster: Yattaro! The one genre that is missing within 1+2 is the beat em up in 3D lane. Just like the other titles, it has its own spin of the genre focusing on being... a salaryman! It's a uniquely peaceful beat em up that is proactive with the peace method. Other games tend to lean on time outs or parrying, which, are fine game design choices, but I'm not a big fan of those. On the other hand, Yattaro lets you make peace aggressively by handing out business cards!

The game takes heavy inspiration from River City Ransom and Mighty Final Fight. You have the usual combos that has to be unlocked too. It's a very responsive game! Then there is the grab where within that state, you can grab-attack, throw, or the primary mechanic, business card. Pressing jump in this state will start the QTE sequence to give the business card! This is the snappiest and quickest way to beat an enemy up, by the way. Quickly handing out cards one after another is both hilarious and addicting, to be honest. But other than simply fulfilling the fantasy of doing the more peaceful option, surely there is another incentive to hand out business cards, right? Yes.

Finishing enemies off via business cards won't make them drop the IC chips, which to put it simply, how you get money to both heal and learn new moves. In a no-continue run, though, thankfully you don't need to! Business cards are important to increase your max HP! Another interesting note is the same enemy, which yes, will respawn, won't take your card the 2nd time, so it won't count towards the business card EXP. You can't farm your way out of this for the precious, precious HP upgrade!

It's not like business card-giving is very easy too. Some enemies will evade a lot from getting grabbed at all, so you need to learn how each enemies work!

Overall it's an easy game to no-continue. I think this is a great game to start your beat em up 1cc journey! The main problem has to be the language barrier. It has RPG elements including fetch quests for accessing each stage bosses. Worry not, you can use this video as your guide! Also if I'm not wrong, this is the 2nd game in the collection that has multiple endings. The 1st one being Guardia Quest Saga. There is Dark Yattaro too. I guess the decision between full assault and business card greetings is to let you express how you make Yattaro resolve conflicts. I don't know if the Good Ending is related to the early choice or how the final boss is finished either.
