Sorry,

Not a neogeo game.

Most likely an IGS PGM game.

Should be obvious it's not MVS. The resolution in the screen shots is too high. The sprites are prerendered. If it were MVS, it would have looked like Ragnagard (horribly pixelated).

What mvsholic said was exactly what I thought. It does look like a PGM game.

I'm guessing that the PGM uses the 384x256 resolution. That's what CPS I & II games use. KLOV.com's entry for Knights of Valour says it uses Standard Resolution.

Yeah, Pulstar and Blazing Star were SOOOO pixelated. <IMG SRC="smilies/rolleyes.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

Shame it's not on the Neo Geo, would rock if it could put out large fluid pre rendered graphics and the such like how this title looks.

Maybe it's for the HNG64. <IMG SRC="smilies/loco.gif" border="0">

Now, now, Rasa. You know what I mean! <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0"> You take the sprites of Pulstar and make them big enough an animated enough, and they'll look like graph paper crap too. And yes, I know that the bosses are really big in Pulstar, but they also weren't trying to look human either (like Ragnagard). Rendered characters on the Neo can afford to get about as big as those in Shock 2 and that's about it. <IMG SRC="smilies/shame.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">
