Touch Gen: Raiden Legacy brings back memories of the small arcade shoved into the back room of my local pizza parlor. This was quite some time ago, and I’m not sure if my memories are of Raiden or of one of the many games to mimic Raiden’s style. Nevertheless, the art style, sounds, and shocking amount of explosions evoke a strong feeling of nostalgia. Raiden Legacy is a collection of four games from the franchise, all of which are steeped in the video game tropes of their time.
Carl Williams writes, "Here are some fun pieces of retro gaming on sale with Steam right now. For those that do not know, this time of year is the annual Summer Sale. Tons of games go on sale for two weeks or so. For fans of older titles though, this can make it hard to find them. I am going to try and help with that a bit."
DotEmu, developer and publisher specializing in modern releases of beloved retro games, is thrilled to announce that RAIDEN LEGACY has been localized into Chinese on iOS and Android.Furthermore, the game is now 80% off on iTunes and Google Play.
Carl Williams writes, "Raiden is an overhead shooter that should require absolutely no introduction to gamers. For the most part, it doesn’t. There are a few, though, that don’t know about this iconic series. One of the most challenging scrolling shooters of days gone by is here with several sequels. Just they forgot one key sequel or this would have been an amazing collection. What is here is a set of four scrolling shooters that are almost like the evolution of 16-Bit overhead shooters. Almost."
