A developer from ASDER...

[MLX]

may have worked with Someri Team !

So this is what interest us:

And from Someri Team:


If you don't noticed something:

© sign has the same error and 9 are similiar.

Huh, that's strange. I'm trying to remember but was Asder connected to Rex Soft in any way? I know one of Rex Soft's games uses the Huang-1 chip.

[taizou]

Yeah, a few of the same people worked for Asder and Rex I think. they do seem to have used the same sound engine and fonts at times anyway. (although the font is stolen from somewhere, I forget where). I guess that Rex game using the Huang-1 chip was published by Ge De or whoever..which one was it?

 I'm not 100% convinced by this Asder->Someri thing, but I guess there could be something there... the only character thats completely identical is the ©, but the others do look kinda similar.

[KingPepe]

Their Samurai Spirits game had the Huang-1 chip in it.

[MLX]

Samurai Spirits Reprogrammed version by REX Soft has the Huang-1 chip. I do not know if Dragon Ball Z 5 has it...

©, 9 and O are similar.

Is it possible that Hummer Team made one game for ASDER ?

[KingPepe]

Ehhh, I kinda doubt it. Does anyone know Rex Soft's first game and the year of it?

[MLX]

First game is probably the reprogrammed version of Samurai Spirits and last is probably King Of Fighter 98.

[KingPepe]

Well, seeing how Someri died off in 1994, my guess it's possible that they split up at that time and went in their own directions maybe. Some (or one) went to Rex Soft and some others to Hummer Team.

[taizou]

maybe, but theres not much of a connection between Rex and Someri apart from the Huang-1 .. Ge De could have published Rex's first game(s).

and maybe one person moved from Asder to Someri in '93/'94, but I dunno if a few letters of a font are really enough to prove a connection there.

Is it possible that Yoko made that JP ronny game for Asder ? Because they didn't make many games in 1993...

ah yeah, that was it. thanks!

 its in Elf Land as well. and I think I've seen it in one other game, but I can't for the life of me remember which one, or what platform it was on, or who made it, or anything about it.

Between the font, the general graphic design and the way the credits are displayed, I have serious suspicions that ASDER and TipTop are related somehow.

[taizou]

yeah, i'd say they are. No idea how though.

[SpaceNinja]

I played through JP Ronny (too, sigh) and it certainly doesn't feel a Yoko game. Hard-to-master controls mainly.
