It's a serious quarter eater, with dozens of baddies onscreen most of the time. The game is very very long, each of the first five stages has three or four segments, and each has a miniboss that needs to be defeated. Melee attacks and pet attacks release hearts which boost your shield power. The shield button converts the pet into a shield that is permament - until you press the button again or it takes enough damage to disappear. This comes in very handy when you, say, shoot some grunts while the pet blocks fire and deals damage to a boss.

Holding the shoot button charges your pet, and when released the pet launches a stationary devastating attack for a few seconds, leaving you free to deal damage somewhere else. There are three buttons: Shoot, jump, and shield. Well they added pets for each of the four player characters, how's that? This adds a very interesting dynamic to the equation, which is good 'cause otherwise it's a Metal Slug clone.

It does a very good job, and attempts to differentiate itself with the same weap. In much the same way that imitaters could copy the motion of a Disney cartoon, but never capture the magic, Demon Front never quite manages to equal the appeal and sheer magnetism of Metal Slug. Choosing to imitate such a well loved game is a sure way to make your job harder, and most reviews I've seen include the phrase "Not as good as Metal Slug." I'll bottom-line it for you early: It's not as good as Metal Slug. I've been asked if this was a graphic hack on the Metal Slug game, it's so similar (It's not). In fact, your second through fifteenth glances are likely to tell you the same thing, and it's true - the game bears a striking resemblence to the amazing SNK/Nazca Metal Slug. But what's it like?Īt first glance, you're going to be excused for thinking it's a Metal Slug ripoff.

At this point unemulated, most people's experience with this software is limited to brief glimpses in overseas arcades and second hand reports and screenshots gleaned from webpages. Released by IGS, a relatively unknown company, for their PolyGame Master (PGM) system, Demon Front is a visual treat. Much has been whispered about this game, but very few people have actually seen one. Demon Front - IGS PGM Arcade Soft Back to nfg.2y.net/games Demon Front
