>>713444276
finally some taste
wonder if aki would've been playable if a third pumped and primed/million monkeys type game would've been made. though they were dead set on using the 1 characters to the point the blue pipo monkey never gained the goggles they got in 2.

>>713450370
This is a nice drawing.

>>713450370
custom levels would be nice, assuming people would be dedicated enough to make them in the first place
custom levels for the existing games would be cool too, just something for a new experience

>>713453241
i would kill for a decomp or some easy hacking tools for the games, i would play the hell out of any hacks or custom levels that come out of it.

Me playing 3

>>713454068
>i would kill for a decomp or some easy hacking tools for the games,
that would be extremely cool, some brand new content and maybe some quality of life adjustments too
if its 1 adding in gadget quick swapping or for 2 and 3 making the gadgets feel better, sky flyer and dash hoop gadgets are such pieces of shit past 1
if its any of the games i hope it's 1, i feel people would be the least intimidated to make something in that one

>>713454756
a 2 mod that makes the unique gadgets more than keys to use at the obvious "use gadget here" locations would be great granted some gadgets for all three games like the RC car kind of have this too but at least with the car the paths you traverse with it get harder

>>713455062
>a 2 mod that makes the unique gadgets more than keys to use at the obvious "use gadget here" locations would be great
I'd honestly be interested to see if someone could pull that off.
I personally don't see how you could do that without it ultimately being a gimmick again but hey if it's possible then I'd like to see it
RC Car does kinda suffer this too I agree, at least the RC Car is fun to use to just drive around

>>713450370
An indie dev is making an ape escape game, I think it's the same devs that made Blue Fire. There's only this vid
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rXUk3NwL2s

>>713455753
>main character is just Spike
>but black
I'm going to have to make my own game huh?
I'll put a fat ass loli in it, don't worry /v/. It will only sell 30 copies, but it will be OUR game.

>>713455931
Yea I'm not a fan of his design too but I think it might be a sign we could be getting more Ape Escape-likes
Astrobot probably ignited the fire

>>713455753
looks playable i guess, it sure wears it's love of ape escape 3 on it's sleeve for sure, maybe a bit too much.
I'm looking at this and thinking "man i could replay ape escape 3 again".
game needs it's own identity that isn't just ape escape but ducks and black guy
>>713455931
>I'm going to have to make my own game huh?
get on it dude start prototyping or drawing. I'll play it probably

>>713455753
disregarding nigger spike i like that it's definitely taking mostly from 3 aside from seemingly going back to 1's air control for jumps but the only real identity seems to just be the apes are replaced with ducks. maybe it's just because it's a prototype but catching doesn't seem as flashy as the main games either, just feels slightly less kinetic.
it is at least playable and maybe i'm glad it's not making retarded changes to the formula but who knows until it comes out.

>>713455753
wholesale ripoffs like this just make me assume that the dev hasn't got the kind of creativity needed to make a good game

>>713455753
I understand that assets. such as the stolen animations and UI elements, can simply placeholders until you make your own, but it's not a good look when there's hardly anything that isn't stolen.

>>713458228
yeah it's a little too on the nose, enough that it seems fun but that's because ape escape's gameplay is fun in general.
i don't even think they need pants, the headphones are kind of enough as the pipo helmet replacement, there's a number of duck breeds that can be the stand-ins for those because of how different they can be from others.

>>713457738
>just feels slightly less kinetic.
part of the problem is that he's mimicking 3 so closely he also recreated the slowdown before every monkey catch.
best comparison i can make is dmc, the animation is very dmc2 dante stinger when he should be going for dmc3 dante stinger
also 3 has worst net in the entire series and choosing that one to base his prototype off of is certainly a choice

>>713457738
>>713458918
best net catching was 1's style or million monkeys if counting spinoffs

>>713459276
definitely agree on 1 having the best net
i think million monkeys is great fun too but it doesn't feel as rewarding when the net comes out so quickly if that makes sense.
million monkeys is great for that catch 40+ in a single level arcade feel
the net having a deploy time in 1 makes the catches feel more rewarding and have a good weight to them imo

>>713459951
It does make sense. The startup delay makes you think about when and where you want to commit to it.
As much as I love Yumi/Sayaka/Mamasaymamamamacusa, I think 1 is the overall best Ape Escape game.

>>713460180
right on the money, agree 100%
hey maybe someday modding will take off for 1 and someone puts Yumi/Sayaka/Mamasaymamamamacusa in it.

>>713458918
i think it has to do as well with the lighting snapping instead of the quick but steady darken 3 did. and while 3 did have a slowdown effect it was only super noticeable when it was the final monkey you had to collect or it was one of those stronger monkeys that can dodge your net easily and counter with a move that knocked your gadget off instead of going super slow for every capture with the most basic of net swipes.
do agree with the other anon that 1 had the best net (million monkeys is slightly behind but only due to that game being more action focused so catching monkeys unless it's a special one that gives you a bio isn't front and center).

>>713460942
oh yeah shit it doesn't lerp good eye, that does affect it
iirc 3 also has some fancy effects applied too like depth of field iirc? its been a minute since i played it so I don't remember all the finer details just the overall vibe

>>713459951
I still can't believe how good million monkeys was (though of course the translation patch releases after I finish it in JP kek)
I'll never understand why that wasn't localized, the entire theme of the game is doing a bunch of kickass shit, that would have sold great in the west

>>713455753
I do think people are being a bit hasty here judging a clearly early prototype against the fully finished ape escape titles. Though I will also say that (CONSTRUCTIVE) feedback during this sort of an early stage is also very important to make sure things get tweaked and fixed while it's still easy to change things rather than at the end when it's much harder to make sweeping systemic changes.

>>713462271
apparently a european release was planned (funny since pumped and primed never released over there) but it was too close to the european release of 3 so it got canned.
sucks but i'm slightly glad just because the EU voices are just too fucking british for me even if i give them props for actually keeping their fucking voice actors for more than one game

>>713462271
yeah it sucks man i loved pumped and primed as a kid and really wanted another game in that style
pap just feels good to platform in
i would've bought it for sure, at least it finally got translated like you said

>>713455753
They should have choose pigs instead of ducks, would have made their intention a bit more obvious.

>>713442935 (OP)
i always wondered about that myself. her voice is perfect in japanese. i listen to her just because she's cute

>>713462670
the series never did have a recurring va cast in NA huh kek
did get a good range of different interpretations for the cast, some way better than others
apparently for JP everybody from 1 has had the same va cast for the entirety of the series which is impressive to me

>>713462670
Yea the britbong voices are funny but honestly even the NA voices are funny too because Spike is Laharl and Natalie is Flonne
Every time I play pumped and primed and hear those two speak I just can't help but think about disgaea
I also think Spike sounds too cutesy in JP, his favorite voice for me is honestly the campy AE1 voice
>I'm going for it!
When I hear this is how I know I'm in for some good monkey catching action

>>713464118
1's dub comes back around to being just fun,
he sounds more like a teenager and honestly I'm on board.
love the "yyyyeeesss!" when you win a stage

>>713464118
1's NA dub is the right amount of campiness that fits the situation of the game
2 i could go either way but that's dependent on how much jimmy and natalie just being ash and misty take away from it or not.
3's NA dub is also really good, probably my favorite specter voice and the best versions of the vocal songs like banana heartbreak the freaky monkey five's special attack voicelines will forever live rent free in my head.

>>713464585
Yea same, I honestly get so into it
Same for his "Gotcha!" it's so catchy
Though despite what I said about JP Spike last post, I do like that in JP they say "Getchu!"
>>713465296
I forgot about Specter's voice in 3, that is a good one

Not gonna lie, the last time I replayed the game (a year or two ago) after all was said and done, all the apes were captured and the coins collected I spent a while on the time machine listening to the song contemplating life before turning the game off and teared up a bit. It's not fair bros, we deserved better.

>>713474396
This track instills a similar feeling.

the areas in 1 that are silent before going to the area that has the song kick in are always best.

also some random ones from 3, P&P and one track from 2 cause even if it's not terada i like how serene it is compared to how most songs in the series are usually extremely upbeat or pump you up.

Out of the Pumped and Primed soundtrack, this one makes me depressed for some reason. It's a nice tune.

>>713476346
>Out of the Pumped and Primed soundtrack, this one makes me depressed for some reason.
could be because of nostalgia, it is the song of the first minigame and pretty good at that
this one personally gets me a little bit from that album

>>713476853
i keep forgetting how good that game's ost is, even the boss tracks despite thinking the more rock focused songs aren't exactly terada's strong suit mainly million monkeys, game's great but i can't really remember any of the original songs, remixing helga's theme for the final level and some random space fishermen song he did for pink's fight are great.

>>713477820
yeah same here, like said i'm not the biggest fan when he tries to go for anything heavy rock, i like when it's just silly synth noises and drum & bass and there's not much of that when it isn't recycling from P&P.

>>713477820
I like the gadget crafting theme, it's comfy

Ape Escape’s US voice acting is bizarrely inconsistent but interesting at the same time.

1 was the classic bad 90s game voice acting where the actors were random ass people who sounded like they were just reading their lines which were all first takes.

2 went for the New York department and had the 4Kids cast, Ash as Jimmy, Yugi as Spike etc.

3 had a standard LA voice cast you’d commonly see in games/cartoons/anime etc.

Funny how it’s JUST like how Sonic voice casts went, obscure VAs to 4Kids VAs to Californian VAS.

>>713465296
>>713464585
Glad I’m not the only one who prefers Spike with a deeper masculine teen voice that the American dubs of AE1 & 2 did, it’s more unique instead of just giving him a generic young boy voice done by a woman, hell the ATL remake straight up had him voiced by Billy/Zim.

It’s one of the few things I respect about PSASBR, they went with the former approach.

>>713462670
>game series rarely sells due to a lack of marketing and exposure
>cancel another spinoff because it might capitalize on its own IP's sales
LOGIC

>>713479784
that would be quess from gundam.

Natsumi best girl

>>713481624
spike just seems the most sensible to have a deeper teen voice, jimmy and kei are a bit more childlike.

>>713474396
The best will always be crumbling castle

>>713483769
Yeah absolutely
I always got the vibe Spike was meant to be seen as the "cool" protagonist while the direction with Jimmy and Kei were more the airheads
that little back and forth between spike and specter in the true final boss fight, always liked how that interaction played out.

>>713444276
finally some fucking taste here

what the fuck is this i never heard of these spin-offs

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TT3wk5zy3NI
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qToZTebpDc

>>713487018
they're both pretty good and worth a playthrough each
million monkeys is a sequel to pumped and primed and is a fun beat em up, has an english patch which is nice
big mission doesn't have one but its easy enough to figure out, just possess monkeys and use their special abilities to reach the end of the level

>>713487018
They're both pretty fun, they have patches so you can play them both in English
Million Monkeys is quite a unique game and takes some getting used to since it's an arcadey action game. However, some of the later mission designs are a bit questionable.
Big Mission is like a smaller-scale mainline game and feels more like a platformer. It's a simple game but pretty charming and doesn't take very long to beat

If you're in the mood for more platformer-focused gameplay then try out Big Mission, if you want a more arcadey action thing or just want to see what the fuck's going on then play Million Monkeys
Both are worth a play either way

>>713487894
>big mission has an english patch
wait what? I missed this
I'm searching on google and can't for the life of me find it
