Story:MADNESS: Project Nexus is a third-person Run n' Gun / Beat'Em Up filled with arcade-style action and button-mashing brutality. Shoot, stab, bash, chop, and slaughter your way through droves of bad guys in the Story Campaign, or build your perfect killing machine in the neverending onslaught of Arena Mode. Wading through the dismembered remnants of those who fell to your bullets and steel, only one thing crosses your mind: They asked for this. And you're glad that they did.Show more

I love this game. As a fan of Madness Combat and Madness Project Nexus, I can confidently say this game stands out. Its mechanics, art style, graphics, and animations feel unique. Even if you’re not already a Madness Combat or Project Nexus fan, this game will probably win you over. The story is solid, and the characters are well-developed. There are multiple game modes: story mode, arena combat, and the playground (and the tutorial, if we count it). I really hope this game gets added to GOG, as the Steam version has DRM, and I don’t want it to rot away and/or be forgotten. It’s not too hard to pick up, though it can become challenging in both story mode and arena combat. My favorite part is arena combat—it’s one of the main reasons this game has such replay value. In arena combat, you choose a character with unique abilities (or none at all), then upgrade them in various ways—leveling up, selecting skills, buying weapons and armor, and even customizing their appearance (like recoloring clothes or changing body parts, these cosmetic changes don’t affect gameplay; they’re just for personal style). You earn experience, money, and tokens by completing missions. After beating arena combat, you can replay it with a new character, and the more you play, the more your character improves. The game tracks how many times you've completed arena combat, rewarding you with better stats the next time you play. There’s more to discover, but I’ll let you find the rest! Story mode is fun, with a Madness Combat episode vibe—close enough to scratch that itch. And the best part? You can play with friends! Up to three additional players, if I remember correctly. Please vote for this game to help preserve it forever, whether you’re a Madness Combat or Project Nexus fan or not. I highly recommend playing it—or at least checking out some gameplay on YouTube. And yes, I know it's not much of a memory, as oppose to what the GOG page may suggest.

Ikaruga
IkarugaIn this vertical scrolling spaceship shooter, you control a ship that can change its polarity at will. As blue/white, the ship can easily destroy red/black enemies, and vice versa. Bullets of your polarity can be collected to fuel your energy gauge, but those opposite will kill you. Destroying an enemy ship causes them to fire revenge bullets which can be absorbed and fired back by the player. Different difficulties exist to change exactly how you interact with polarized points, or how they appear. It is the spiritual successor to Radiant Silvergun, featuring similar level and boss design, as well as it's buddhism inspired themes and aesthetics. Both are directed by Hiroshi Iuchi, who also composed Ikaruga's soundtrack.

Silhouette Mirage
Silhouette MirageFollowing genetic experiments conducted by a group of scientists at the turn of the millennium, a biological explosion contaminated the genetic structure of life on Earth. Two attributes emerged from the ruins, known as Silhouette and Mirage; like Yin and Yang, they cannot exist without each other, but are fundamentally opposed in their nature and ideology. Only a Messenger, one who contains both attributes in a balance, is able to get to the Edo facility and reverse back the genetic disaster, destroying both Silhouette and Mirage. This messenger is a young girl named Shyna Nera Shyna. Silhouette Mirage is a side-scrolling action game. The basic gameplay is somewhat similar to that of Gunstar Heroes. The game's standout feature is the concept of the two attributes. Depending on the enemy's attributes and the type of attack used by Shyna, damage can be increased, and spirit (equivalent to magic power) can be absorbed from enemies. Shyna can dash, jump, crouch, slide, and grab enemies, executing combo attacks. It is also possible to master moves, acquire money, and purchase special creatures called "parasites", which teach Shyna various types of attacks.

Resident Evil Code: Veronica
Resident Evil Code: VeronicaResident Evil Code: Veronica is the fourth video game in Capcom's Resident Evil survival horror series. The game continues the survival horror gameplay of its predecessors: the protagonist explores the surroundings, fighting monsters and solving puzzles. However, it is the first game in the series to do away with pre-rendered backgrounds using a fully polygonal 3D engine instead, which allows for features such as real-time lighting and camera movement. Still, such movements are only used sparingly, and the use of perspective is mostly unchanged from earlier installments: the camera automatically switches to different static angles showing protagonists, monsters and rooms from different spooky viewpoints.
