Darwin 4081
🕑 Added 2019-04-11 22:40:12 +0000 UTC I made this painting of Darwin 4081 for the Mega Drive. A port of the arcade game Super Real Darwin by Data East. I think is one of the most unappreciated shoot 'em ups for the system. Wanted to do something like an old magazine ad or arcade flyer using 2 of the main forms of the ship/creature thingy: Gashallu and Black Deame (in the background) and some EVOL creatures (those round things floating)
Love the game, its strange setting and visuals, that maybe look bland at first but it has a consistent (yet bizarre) style through all the game. Also the music helps set the mood with curious melodies and the most important thing; The evolution system. Simple at first but it has more depth than it looks.
The japanese words say: A war...beyond imagination begins!

It looks nice as a shoot 'em up: it has different shots for air and land enemies. It consists of as many as 10 stages, while most of these games have only 5. Nice = ^ ˽ ° = <a href="https://youtu.be/TYrGU_d5RBw" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/TYrGU_d5RBw</a>
