Sega's Altered Beast Gets A Free Fan-Made Remake

I loved that arcade/Sega game back in the day.
I re-played I about a year ago, and omg, it's quarter eating trash. What was I thinking back then?
Can't wait to play the remake.

It was the most ridiculous and infuriatingly hard game back then, by a margin. It almost made Ghosts and Ghouls look easy in comparison.
-
That was by design, actually. A lot of the old arcade games were like that.
It was to get people to either quit after a bit of playing so a new person could step in and give the machine money, or have the person who lost at the hard level put more money in.
Otherwise at just a quarter the machines become unprofitable. Just capitalism things.

I mean sure, but played my fair share off arcades back in the day and some would eat your quarters faster than others and games too difficult like this one didn’t attract much attention even if they were flashy one because we kids were broke AF.

Hey, I never said it was a good design lol
-
-
are new arcade games better at this?
-
Honestly not sure. Haven’t been to an arcade in years.
I should go to one again.

Yeah. It was a stupidly hard game. With unlimited lives (ie unlimited quarters) the entire thing is only a 25 minute play through.
