Tem uma parte que parece Hong Kong 97

The measly attack range and minimal moveset make it a pretty dull beat-'em-up, but I have to give it points for the acid-storybook presentation and the very silly score system, which involves turning enemies into chickens. Love that cover art, too!

Nonsensical and sparkling, Pu-Li-Ra-La is a beat-em-up revolving around spells that summon giant microwaves, enemies that lunge at the player with tusk-like pelvic appendages, and a really addled evil puppet.

Somewhere between Cho Aniki and Golden Axe, this game will keep you engaged with sudden dadaist visuals, while offering a combat experience that's simple but extremely well balanced, forcing players to be smarter about positioning and magic use timing than most beat-em-ups require.

I absolutely recommend it to beat-em-up devotees, and consider it a must for those obsessed with the kind of sparkly cotton candy visuals displayed in other games of this nature like Harmful Park or Stretch Panic. It's beautiful, trashy art that will entertain for the exact handful of hours it works to earn.

This game takes you on a journey with wonderfully psychedelic art design and tons of creativity. The fact it's built on the back of a simple beat-em-up makes the whole experience funnier. Worth 20 minutes of anyone's time!

Basically a Ghibli film on acid, you need to play this at least once in your life.


The stampede attack in this is JUST like Revolutionary Girl Utena episode 8!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Feels like the video game version of a really good short film. Basically just cool images and sounds but that's really all you need sometimes!

It's very funny that in the now 100 games that i have logged on here this game that is very well known to be short and baby easy was what made me resort to cheats in the final act. idk man It's like 3am as I'm writing this and i had kinda save stated myself into a corner so i just enabled infinite magic and lives and blasted through that last bit lol. This game is cool enough where i do feel like playing trough it proper at some point tho. Maybe on co-op.

Looked at what else this studio had made and saw that they made a wrestling eroge for the PC-98 lol. And also a baseball dating sim??????? Why are sports themed vns a recurring thing in their catalog???????

A really wild and surreal beat ‘em up, it's actually very fair for an arcade game and overall fun if simple, but the real selling point are the crazy inventive settings and designs. There's a point to PuLiRuLa, I think, one buried a bit underneath the poor translation and the game's short length, but I think it's very fascinating anyways.

short fun co-op side scroller beatemup with cool art

Seventeenth GOTW finished for 2022. This one gets some points for wackiness and just down right what-the-f*ckery, but it really wasn't that enjoyable to play. Clunky controls, weird spaces of absolutely no music or sound, and poor descriptions/translations don't help its case. Crazy short, so there's that...

I once saw a video talking about this game being bad. Did we even play the same game? That was really fun like what the heck. That was even one of the better beat em ups in terms of boss fights. Kind of feel bad for the game now.

cool game with a cool art style. if you've got half an hour to spare and like beat em ups, give it a try. it's on fightcade and there's a saturn version

You know what? I really enjoyed my time with this! It's a wacky, colorful beat em up with great music and strange enemies. Really good stuff!

Utterly fantastic world and visuals; disappointing action.

Weirdest coin munching beat em up I've played.

made no real attempt to engage in the beat em up mechanics, but it didnt matter because i was smiling so much the whole damn time. this game looks and plays like eating cotton candy feels

Weird fucking game, I dig it lol, translation is "did they even proofread this shit?" bad but honestly that's perfect for this game. I discovered this through Rerez shitting on it, but one comment said they were too normie to get it and I agree, which they hearted, so I guess they also agree

This does not exist. Wake up, Esperanto

pretty standard beat em up gameplaywise but really shines with its absurd worlds the game takes you through. Worth playin on that regard alone, but don't expect the gameplay to make you nut

I don't think old scrolling beat 'em ups are that compelling to play, but there's times where you want to play one, so it might as well be something that's fifteen minutes long and full of a bunch of mad shit.

This was just weird. Didn't really enjoy this one at all. Bad translation, poor beat 'em up gameplay. The art was the only thing it had going for it, and it didn't real vibe with me either.

Joguei a versão japonesa. O texto é muito rápido, é cheio de kanji que não conheço e não tem furigana, então não fui capaz de entender absolutamente nada além de um "sumimasen" aleatório lá no final. Mas tenho certeza que mesmo que eu tivesse sido capaz de ler e traduzir tudo, continuaria não entendendo nada. Que viagem esse jogo.


THIS GAME IS FUCKING WEIRD AS SHIT

this game is a goddamn work of art and you can't convince me otherwise

Que puedo decir sobre esto, cada nivel que transcurre se convierte en algo mas extraño.

Un Beat'Em Up sin mucho que exprimir en cuanto a sistema de combate, aunque si te gustan las cosas raras no veo porque no le puedes echar un vistazo.
