Crude Buster Longplay (Arcade) [4K]

Developed and published by Data East in 1990

Also known as Two Crude Dudes (or simply Two Crude), the classic beat 'em up from Data East has a great sense of style. I always loved the way you could pick up and hurl debris left lying around the scenery, as well as the enemies themselves.

Sadly, the game balance feels off - the sluggish pace of your character, not to mention the health of certain bosses, means it's virtually impossible to reach certain checkpoints before the time counts down. It's probably more achieveable in two-player coop, but it becomes a real test of endurance for the lone gamer.
