ive actually been thinking about making something like that as well, but mostly to round out my skill set since all i really know how to do is coding. basically i'd like to get more experience with the creative part of gamedev like art, writing, and music.
but im also a full time student right now so i would likely be a dead weight on a team because of my other responsibilities.
its a shame to say but mostly since he hasnt had a relevant game in a long time. super bomberman r could have been that game, but it was nothing great and kind of expensive for what it was. im genuinely hoping konami has something new to show this E3

Yeah, it sounds like it wouldn't work out. Once the novelty of starting a new project washes away, you'll need to continue working out of pure grit.

This is sad

There's literally never been a bad Bomberman game on a Nintendo console (Bomberman Zero positive reviews did bad because M$ is woefully incompetant)

I'm pretty sure Rayman has never had a bad game (Rabbids don't count as Rayman games, since the meme-rodents are the protagonists and Rayman is just jacking off in backround), and he's had a steady stream of sublime 2D platformers for a decade. Also Rayman 2 (3D) is peak 5th-gen collectathon with god-tier music

No idea. Maybe a charged 4bomb 4flame throw ripped open a wormhole to the SOUL dimension

Also has one of the best rivals in gaming, Nitros
>b-but it's just recycled boss fights!
Every fight with him has a similar arena but wildly different playstyles. He evolves his fighting style, tactics, and arena. even the first encounter is tough, and by the final encounter you're making frame-perfect dodges and jumps while needing 500IQ throws and traps just to get a single damage (out of like 25) on him

Really wish Hero would get an official or spiritual sequel (Zero doesn't count obv because it was shit while Hero was good). It did had some sizable problems I admit,. some levels have unclear objectives, difficulty curve is kind of a mess, some enemies (like the spitting crabbos) have janky attacks, submarine levels are meh at best, destroyable "hidden" walls random, occasional camera problems, and upgrade system is kind of fucked and grindy. None of this brings bman hero under a 7/10.

Health, Bomb count, and Flame upgrades should've been permanent and acquired at set points, either after bosses and/or hidden in levels. You should be able to change these upgrades (at least Flame size) in the map screen, and Stuff like flameproof and unique unique bombs stay as temporary upgrades.

It's so unique and fun. we've got enough games with swords or guns, we need more with chads that exclusively attack with explosives and sometimes snowboards and giant rabbits.

>Once the novelty of starting a new project washes away, you'll need to continue working out of pure grit.
yeah. im plenty familiar with that feeling. but to answer this:
i was interested in doing something like a remake of bomberman 64 the second attack, mostly since the story makes it stand out from everything else in the series. the gameplay could stand to do with a modern upgrade though. its rough playing it when the game slows down terribly at the drop of a hat.
but i also think bomberman could do with more interesting takes and gameplay styles, like bomberman hero did.

Attached: 1529181887966.png (500x500, 159K)

Wasn't implying that either. I'm saying the plot is probably something you wound't expect. The first 64 kinda also had that feeling but in a lesser extent

Attached: second attack.png (1485x496, 1.16M)

I think Bomberman 64's take on gameplay was interesting because it was a puzzle game, as much as it was a bomberman game. I mean, bomberman typically has some minor puzzle elements. But it's mostly very simple stuff, that's easy to execute. And then Bomberman 64 comes along, and suddenly you have to become an engineer to figure out how to make some jumps.

Bomb jumping was an incredible mechanic. It gives the player enough freedom to figure out solutions on their own, as well as requiring the skill to actually pull it off. I only wish bombs were a tad easier to set up. Like, if the game showed a line of trajectory as you're holding it. Or if you can wind up and angle your kick, before actually kicking it.

Attached: 630652_p0.png (497x664, 120K)

yeah, absolutely.
bomberman 64's bomb jumping mechanic was interesting not only from how it made navigating the environment a puzzle, but because it felt like the enemies were, for once, secondary to actually getting through the level. rainbow palace is my favorite world because i genuinely enjoyed bomb jumping.
bomberman 64 the second attack also had bomb jumps in a few select places, but none of them were incredibly hard to set up, and all for just things like custom parts. thats not to say it was a complete downgrade though, since the elemental bombs were involved in puzzles involving the environment as well.
the thing is though, the experimentation seems to have began and ended with the n64 games. the singleplayer mode for the gamecube bomberman games did add unique mechanics, like the charaboms, but nothing too big in my opinion.
i dont count act zero as experimentation since the new design was absolutely pushed by soulless marketers for western audiences

I loved bomberman 64 when I was a kid, and bought Bomberman Hero thinking it was a prequel or somehow connected to 64, was pretty disappointing to leaen it wasn't. I never got a chance to buy TSA, which sucks now because it's one of the more expensive n64 games. But Altair and his crew where the best, I loved Altairs design and named all my accounts and stuff after him, only to have people think I really liked AssCreed when it came out.

TSA is different to 64. I can't really describe it because I'm not even sure why or if I even like it enough to describe why. All I can say is.

The intro is wordy as fuck
The levels are more puzzly. Think the SNES games but with actual level design.
The music is somehow even better than 64
Regulus shows up in the plot after the first level and starts fucking around with everyone.

For some reason I really like the controls of Bomberman Hero. Don't know why but it really clicks with me.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

FUCK my coolness nostalgia

I liked his death sequence too, it was such an unexpected thing to me, like one of those n64 era things you hear about, like getting Luigi in Mario 64. That Sirius just drops down and kills him, it was nuts.
When I learned that TSA was more what I wanted, i did try and get it, but buying stuff online was limited back then, so I was just sorta limited to whatever local game stores had. I have played it a little on emulator, and I love regulus in that game, he's really cool, and his boss fight is great, love the voice effects when he does his special moves.

Mujoe seems like a cool guy

TSA was my favorite childhood game. Have a hard time going back to it now because WORDS WORDS WORDS and I still remember what to do at each part of each map cause I played it so much as a kid. Not really any challenge left in the game for me. At least multiplayer mode is still fun, and damn are those memories good. Not a jrpg but it was basically my first jrpg plot. Was my all time favorite game for more than a decade probably.

I maintain 64 remains the most popular Bomberman by virtue of feeling most like a multi-genre adventure. Puzzles, combat, unique environments, it's one of those games that tries to do just about everything.

Bomb jumping in TSA is definitely less of a focus but if you try to 100% a file you'll get some good bomb jumping in. The piece on top of the elevator in aquanet is ridiculous.

I think the elemental bombs are more interesting than bomb jumps but I do wish we could have both put to good use at once.

They do, but Bomberman was already successful, and well established as an IP and it had a development team ready to support it. Konami are amongst the worst for IP abuse, the only companies that are worse are ones like SE, Activision and EA, companies that will sit on an IP, even if they have no intention of ever using it again, and didn't themselves create it.

I will make you a model kit for $200, if you want a big one you need to pay more.
