Beastro
Arcane
This is a game designed to emulate the feel of NEStroid, while adding improvements to the graphics, sound, and mechanics. Each Planet is essentially a complete "game", but they are all bundled together and run on the same engine.
There are 2 complete Planets, one of which is the original NEStroid world. The other has an original design with some additional areas and bosses.
A 3rd Planet is available as a demo, and it is randomized, so each playthrough is different! You can even use a built in Room Studio to design your own rooms for it!
Here are some of the adjustments/additions made:
+Sharper Movement
+A Map System
+Restarting with Full Health and Ammo
+Customizable Controls
+Item Percentage, Time Counter, and Mini-map
+A Randomized Mode, where Item locations will be swapped randomly
+A Hard Difficulty, where enemies deal 2x Damage, and Missiles and Energy are reduced
+A Strike Mode, where there is a finite amount of Energy and Ammo in the world, but you start with all upgrades
+Automatic Saving, no passcode needed
+Keeps track of Speedrun Data for your playthroughs
+Smoother/Added Animations
+Fancy Particle Effects
+Equipment Menu, turn items on/off
+New remixed 8-bit audio

The major thing to the game as you can DL people's room packs and generate your own randomized world's on your own through Enigma.
