-- Disclaimer at the end of the video --

The only fighting game included on the disc is this one: Battle Beast. Mostly meant as a 2 player combat brawl, Battle Beast is kinda a wacky approach to the game genre, by being a bit ridiculous and having a silly plot.

Developed by 7th Level, among a few other games in this series, and published in 1995 by BMG Interactive, this one actually got some positive reception back then, specially by the unique and funny visuals.

In my own eyes, the game looks fun to play, however, the controls to my taste are too awkward to deal with, it's not your typical fighting game scheme. In fact, to make the video a bit more interesting than showing my inability to figure out the controls, I simply let the computer play with itself.

All in all, the game has a simple premise, and it's just that, another fighting game. Gotta give them credit for the fluidity of motion though.

Enjoy!
