Lumps of coal that actually are interesting. Thanks :D[/quote]Definitely give the Luo Ke Ren X game a try, that's the most impressive one.

Interesting things from the ROM headers:

  • The Digimon game claims to be "SHAO-LIN" in its header. This is also (naturally) the header title for Shaoling Legend: Hero The Saver, which shares the same HUD and music.
  • Luo Ke Ren X, not surprisingly, has the same "EMO  -by WS" header from Sintax's Castlevania game.
  • World of Warcraft claims in its header to be "AVP". If I recall, there was a still un-dumped Alien vs. Predator game from Sintax-- I have a pretty good idea now of what engine it must use.

In fact, the only one of the new games that doesn't claim to be something else in its header is Feng Zhi Gou II, which has the title "FENG2-by WS". Curiously enough, that includes the same author initials as Castlevania.

the odd thing about that is the dumped Castlevania demo has credits in its intro, but none of them match up to WS:

Chen Ke, Wang Debin
Animation, background design
Chen Ke, Luo Ji, Liao Sina[/quote]
I guess Wang Debin might have used an English name or a pseudonym beginning with S though.

A couple more weird findings:

World of Warcraft inexplicably has a "James Bond" title screen buried in its graphics. Perhaps another game that uses the same engine?

Digimon Fighter contains yet another variation on Digimon Amethyst's title screen-- "Digit Dinosaur: The adventrue of devildom" (sic!). The subtitle is in the same font as Digimon Amethyst's, but the title screen itself is based on the 2003 Digitmon Sapphire variation, complete with Croc. (And no, this isn't an English title screen for the beat-em-up game-- the tile bank that it's in is straight out of the Mario-knockoff platformer.)

Edit: "Digit Dinosaur" may very well be the original title screen for that platformer, possibly - it has "Copyright © Design by BBD" as part of the tiles. Also, the Croc in the "Digit Dinosaur" screen is a more direct copy from the Croc 2 title screen - it was redrawn for Digitmon Sapphire.

Finally, some new stuff! Can't wait for Terrifying 9/11, because that one is laughable IMO :P

Emo Cheng looks to be an interesting game. It looks like a Game Boy version of the Famicom Game Getsu Fuuma Den.
