This is a little quirky game that probably nobody's heard of. I know Nesvideos likes stuff like that, so I decided to talk about it.
It's a game for the SNES. You play as Hamel, who is the "Violinist of Hamelin" (duh). You save some village from peril way in the beginning, and then set off to destroy monsters. Oh yeah, you take a girl with you to be your slave. (Not in that way.)
Essentially, it's a platformer, sort of like Goemon, except more 2D and more musical-themed. Your main weapon is shooting musical notes out of your violin. You can jump, of course, and pick up things. There's also a button that determines whether or not the girl follows you.
Probably the most interesting thing about the game is the girl, Hamel's assistant. She is treated in-game as an object that follows your movements (unless the button is pressed that says not to). She can be thrown to damage enemies. As the game goes on, you collect more and more costumes which allow you to do things that Hamel could not do on his own. (For example, walk over spikes with the Ostrich or jump very high with the Frog.)
Either way, this game needs a TAS, bad. I plan to do it, it's a simple game and good for a first TAS. However, I would like to know if anyone has any knowledge of the game and can help me plan routes.
The rom is not that hard to find, so happy searching and I hope everyone enjoys this game. *goes off to plan routes*
