Context: A player character or playable character (PC) is a fictional character in a role-playing or video game whose actions are directly controlled by a player of the game rather than the rules of the game. The characters that are not controlled by a player are called non-player characters (NPCs). The actions of non-player characters are typically handled by the game itself in video games, or according to rules followed by a gamemaster refereeing tabletop role-playing games. The player character functions as a fictional, alternate body for the player controlling it., Konami is famous for popular video game series such as "Castlevania", "Contra", "Dance Dance Revolution", "Gradius", "Frogger", "Suikoden", "Ganbare Goemon", "Metal Gear", "Mirmo", "Beatmania IIDX", "Pro Evolution Soccer", "Boktai", "Silent Hill", "Yu-Gi-Oh!", and "Sound Voltex". The 2012 purchase and absorption of Hudson Soft resulted in the addition of several other popular franchises, including "Adventure Island", "Bonk", "Bloody Roar", "Bomberman", "Far East of Eden" and "Star Soldier". Konami is the twentieth-largest game company in the world by revenue. , Shoot 'em up (also known as shmup or STG) is a subgenre of the shooter genre of video games. In a shoot 'em up, the player character engages in a lone assault, often in a spacecraft or aircraft, shooting large numbers of enemies while dodging their attacks. There is no consensus as to which design elements compose a shoot 'em up. Some restrict the definition to games featuring spacecraft and certain types of character movement; others allow a broader definition including characters on foot and a variety of perspectives. Shoot 'em ups call for fast reactions and for the player to memorize levels and enemy attack patterns. "Bullet hell" games feature overwhelming numbers of enemy projectiles., Information.
The series began in 1997 under the name "Beastorizer". The game's theme incorporated anthropomorphism, where the player has the ability to transform into a half-human, half-animal creature known as a "Zoanthrope" (the name came from the clinical term, 'zoanthropy', which is similar to that of lycanthropy, but not just with the mindset of a wolf). The game would appear under the name ""Bloody Roar"" when ported to the PlayStation in 1998, which would become the permanent title thereafter. There are three "Bloody Roar" sequels, plus a game based on a sidestory set between 3 and 4 on the Nintendo GameCube which was later ported to the Xbox., Project Overkill is a shoot ' em up game developed and published by Konami in 1996 ., The first game, named "Star Soldier", appeared on the MSX and NES in 1986, and the series has continued on various gaming systems. "Star Soldier" itself has received enhanced remakes for both the GameCube and PlayStation 2 in 2003, and a different remake for the PlayStation Portable in 2005, while the latest installment of the series was released on the Wii as a WiiWare game in 2008. In addition, "Super Star Soldier", "Final Soldier", "Soldier Blade" and "Star Parodier" have been re-released on the Wii's Virtual Console and on the Japanese PC Engine's Best Collection lineup for the PSP., Subject: project overkill, Relation: platform, Options: (A) msx (B) pc (C) playstation (D) virtual console (E) wii (F) xbox
