Sunday Longplay - Gunstar Super Heroes (Game Boy Advance) - Red, Hard Mode

This week on Sunday Longplay, I'm playing the sequel to the game I longplayed last Sunday. Welcome to Gunstar Super Heroes!

Gunstar Super Heroes was released in 2005, 12 years after the original Gunstar Heroes, with the story taking place after the events of its predecessor and featuring an expanded combat system.

The destruction of the God of Ruin Golden Silver at the end of Gunstar Heroes created four moons orbiting the earth. However, many years later, the creation of a fifth moon reveals a plan to resurrect the Empire and Golden Silver once again.

The gameplay makes a number of changes from the original Gunstar Heroes. The controls for Red and Blue no longer distinguish by the Free and Fixed Shot and both have more advanced, equal and versatile controls. The Throw from the original is taken out, and various melee attacks are now performed by using the A and B buttons in combination with the D-pad. The ability to combine different weapons is absent - instead, the player has the option to select from three weapon types at any time in the game. The game also uses a supercharge meter that fills as the player defeats enemies. Using this energy allows the player to fire a powerful attack.

Gunstar Super Heroes also has a unique form of Easy-Mode Mockery that fleshes out the story and characters more on harder difficulty settings. On Easy mode, the bad guys become nothing more than one-liner spouting Saturday morning cartoon villains, while Hard mode makes them more tragic. The story also takes a different tone depending on which character you play as, with Blue being more cynical and Red being more idealistic. With this in mind, I will be playing as Red on Hard Mode.
