From the makers of Bullet Girls on Vita. (Both of which I platinumed a long time ago lol.) Banned games on Era/GAF for... obvious reasons. What's interesting about Shade as a developer is that they actually managed to squeeze both native res and 40~60FPS out of the Vita hardware, with graphics that are honestly pretty good. (For a 2011 handheld.)

What can I say about GGP. Mhm, well it takes place in a college/university dorm instead of a High-School setting, there was a neptunia collab, and I actually found the game to be quite hard! A lot of the challenge comes from the platforming, which with vita controls felt very floaty pretty much constantly. Maybe a PC release will tighten that up.

If you're an achievement hunter, this one is hard. Just prepare to get mocked and stuff, cuz like anime girls and pervy stuff I guess.

Edit: I guess I'd also add, that while Bullet Girls actually had decent, tight, and fun Third-person shooter mechanics, GGP trades pretty much all of that in for it's bigger focus on platforming and map traversal. To me that was kind of a letdown, because third-person shooters are one of my favorite genres and they had done so well in that regard previously... The shooting in this is... bad, and requires very little tactics.

So it's... not good?

Where is gameplay though? I only see crappy animated (with flash?) anime tiddies

 

[prudis]

from my understanding you jumpm around the room and shoot the giant girls

 

[Deku]

The game doesn't look fun....

Pretty much. I guess it depends on how much you like 3D platforming and whether or not you could be drawn in by the story or concept. Might be a tough sell even to the Senran Kagura crowd. I'm always up to bat for B-tier Japanese games, but this one really is just "meh" all around.

If I had a list of Vita titles I'd like to see get ported, this would have been quite low at the bottom.

 

[DarknessTear]

I remember the name now. This is what the old developer of Terranigma (Shade) is up to these days. Go get Tomoyoshi Miyazaki out of the criminal underworld and get back to developing the good shit!

Bummer, would have at least checked this one out. If SK fans call it a stinker then I should probably stay far away.

I was a happier person not knowing this.
It's incredibly sad that they did such good works, and then just disappeared into obscurity. Same with Cing. Some of the people that used to work with Cing released a very short 3DS game on the style of Hotel Dusk, but it just wasn't the same.

There are rumors about what happened to the director of Terranigma as well. Part is confirmed which is that he got involved with a credit card company and fell into debt. The rest is unconfirmed, about him getting involved with Yakuza and gambling. Yuzo Koshiro says there is truth to some rumors but he doesn't know everything because they haven't spoken in a long time.

I wish Quintet could make more games. I wish they could all get back together. Terranigma is my favorite SNES game.

 

[KainXVIII]

Maybe they just need to port Mister Mosquito from PS2

[Alextended]

Next gen game concept right there. This is the future.

I'm still not sure if it will be released day1 on PC... Litterally the only time they've mentioned the PC release was when they apologised for forgotting to mention the PC release in the initial reveal trailer. The website for the game still only lists the Switch ver. Also their latest tweet;

 

[prudis]

Ganado seems like the tweet Gematsu is refering to was deleted so who knows .

 

[prudis]

and its official now

 

[Ganado]

and its official now

Thank god but why are they so scared of Steam Cloud? Also hope its gonna be 60fps.

[prudis]
