MAME ROW #29 - Jungler
-
@backstander Yeah, from video alone, Jungler is a clearly more advanced game, but now that I've tried them I'm a bit torn between that and Phantom II
-
One vote, and it's mine?!

Sorry, I didn't get any time last night to try out these games. I think my video card in my main PC has died. I worked on it off & on for about an hour and finally gave up and just played Bomberman '94 for the TG16 until bed time. I think either Jungler or Phantom II would be okay with me. -
I think Jungler won:
-
Jungler it is!
-
Jungler? Sounds interesting.
Might try it. What version of MAME do I need? -
@obsidianspider
Interesting flyer for Jungler -
@backstander Yeah, the back is a bit tamer.

@obsidianspider
Look like player 2 would have to be left handed ;-)"It's a real snake in the cash." whatever that means!
-
How would 1 joystick work for 2 players here???!?!? My mind feels like it is getting a blue screen of death trying to figure that out.

I'm sure you'd have to take turns like what the original Super Mario Bros. did.
-
So I downloaded Jungler. Do I need anything else besides the rom itself?

I feel dumb. lol. I need more sleep.....

@itsnitro are you aware about the MAME versions peculiarities?
-
Nope, I've never really touched MAME.

I guess you missed the very top post in this section that's been stickied there for months…

@buddyscott Sorry I've been busy again this week and didn't get a chance to try these out.
Watching the videos I thought Phantom II was likely to give me a migraine!
Embargo looked a bit tedious, so I guess I would have voted for Jungler anyway!
Interesting to see the promotional material - I'm guessing the two fire buttons thing was a cost-saver maybe? Having the fire button double up as the P1 and P2 start button, means you end up with 2 fire buttons. Sticking them either side of the joystick actually means it's suitable for right or left handed players.
I'm hoping that both players can actually use either fire button when playing the game?!
Still looks a bit odd though - my OCD is screaming that P1 start should be on the left and P2 start on the right!
