I been obsessed with Time Gal ever since I heard about it but it's impossible to track down and play it on laser disc. Those are old machines and none of them work. Is Time Cal worth the effort or hard pass?

This is barely even retro, it just tells you what button to press then you press it. It doesn't count as a videogame. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5nLn2LLvAY

it's only 50 years ahead of its time

It is just a QTE game like much of the genre. If you like the genre then ok. But very few people like the genre.

All those game suck donkey dick. 20 years ago QTEs came back bigly and everyone hated it.

QTE/FMV games were a pretty natural occurrence. Laserdisk was out for about a half a decade when someone figured you can make a QTE/FMV game out of it.

So first Laserdisk arcade game was Astron Belt. Technically it is more advanced then the QTE games. It just overlays sprites over prercorded environments. But the first QTE/FMV would have been Dragons Lair. This genre was quite common in the mid to late 80s, many arcades had one or two QTE/FMV games.

Even devs today can't figure out how to get you to play as cartoons, its still impressive they figured it out 50 years ago.
>>
>>12922105
Wow, 50 years ahead of its time? Despite Dragon's Lair releasing 2 years before it? Damn
>>
>>12922139
The difference is that Dragon Lair sucks

>>12922160
If Dragon's Lair sucks, then Time Gal blows!

Is the Sega CD one worth playing?

play the saturn or ps1 ports.

They should have just made a full scale OVA out of this.

>>12922238
It's a complete port but visually it's really grainy

>This is barely even retro,
Is your mind so degrated that "retro" to you means "retro game" which means "old game"? God damn dude, improve your literacy. Also yes this is a video game.
