This is my tribute to a game I played through recently, Sigma Star Saga. Unfortunately, far too many people never gave this very brilliant game a chance. It's a hybrid RPG/Adventure-Game/Space Shooter; no, seriously. The run around and exploration parts are like an adventure game where finding new tools unlock new areas, and earlier areas that were barred off; along the way you collect experience points, watch lengthy RPG style cutscenes, and engage in randomly occuring battles; however, those randomly occuring battles - as well as some key plot points - actually take the form of space shooter levels. The story both makes sense of all this in a logical way, but also happens to be very good as well. This was supposed to be a shot of Recker and Psyme talking in the crate that Zelly put them in on their way to Starbase 3, just before Psyme kisses Recker while he's in the middle of feeling sorry for himself about the fate of Sigma Squadron, but I think I got a little carried away with adding details to the crate to the point where it really doesn't look like a crate at all anymore.

This is the most complicated picture I've ever done, and it took way too long to make, but I am definitely happy with the final results. I find it funny that in Krill society the guys are basically given walking tank suits, but the girls apparently get the 'battle bikini' (but it gets +2 communication with the fleet, it seems). Anyways, don't ever expect anything quite this complicated from me again for a good long while.

It was indeed an awesome game. My favorite part was that unlike other so-called scifi themed rpgs, it felt far more like something science-fictiony rather than just something with technology thrown in (you used guns and spaceships, rather than swords and magic spells like some so called scifi RPGs). Anyways, I'm glad you enjoyed the picture.

Games that dare to be something new often fail.

It's a great game, I think... Too bad you can't combine cannon+cannon gun data... Or else...
Three-Way Spread plus Options! XD
:iconclovis15:
That would be more ridiculously over powered than some of the already ridiculously over powered combinations you can form as is!

Talking about overpowered, use triple spread + bouncing shot + shield or damage enemies upon Xth impact. That's one of the most powerfull combos I heard of. But my favorite is Triple Spread + Triple Laser + EXP on 30th impact
:iconclovis15:
Man, you could take out bosses in seconds with the bounce if the bullet got stuck in them.
