Japanese action game Deae Tonosama Appare Ichiban, developed by Sunsoft, launched for Super Famicom in Japan almost exactly 30 years ago, on March 31, 1995. It was never made available in English — until now. Ratalaika Games and Shinyuden are re-releasing the game with the title of Feudal Bros: Tonosama #1 for PC and consoles in just ten days.
In the game, Edo-period Japan has returned to peace following years of violent wars… but it won’t last. There is danger lurking that only two noblemen can stop: Lord Baka, a feudal lord, and Prince Bouffon, a prince from France. Each receives a message from their dead father before setting out across Japan (beyond) to track the threat and stop it. They are very brave men, yes. But they are also very stupid…
According to the Steam page for the game, its features include:
- Select from 2 playable characters, each with their own unique skills
- Local co-op 2-player mode
- Rewind/Turbo function: repeat something until you achieve perfection, or speed things up
- Save state function: save wherever you want to in the game, and restart from that exact point
- Screen filters: select from several filters to modify how the game looks (retro-style monitor, black-and-white, etc.)
- Gallery: view images from the original game’s manual and box design
- Cheats function: activate cheats that will make your mission a lot easier (infinite lives, invulnerability, etc.)
- Jukebox: listen to the 36 music tracks included in the game whenever you want
