Help with PGM games...

[N30_G30_speed]

Just got my PGM motherboard and Demon Front along with The Gladiator just wandering what tips, hints, codes, cheats or simply comments I could get from anyone about this two games since trying to figure out the what messages appear in the games is completely imposible and the information on the net is almost non-existant...
For starters still can't figure out exactly the whole "helper" in demon front and "normal" / "auto-combo" in the gladiator

Thanks

well it seems not a lot of people have info on these games, but I found this page with info regarding gladiator I wanted to share it with everyone.

Thanks for that link. Unfortunately there is very little information out there on the PGM.

I saved a Demon Front guide from a french website a while back, can try locating it and sending you a copy. It explains the locations of all the secret keys and pathways to get to the true last boss battle.

As for the helper, basically there are two ways of maxing your shot power. Knifing enemies results in skulls and levels up your blue bar. I believe there are three power-up levels for this which results in a more powerful standard gun shot. Using the powered up familiar results in hearts and levels up your red bar. There are nine levels of power which increase the size and potency of your familiar. The major changes occur at Level 4 and 7, with the familiar growing in physical size and creating a larger shot with additional damage and range. Lastly, pressing the C button allows you to use your familiar as a shield. If you take a certain amout of damage in this form, the familiar is "killed off"/disappears.

The game has a wonderful scoring mechanic where you can try chaining entire levels. Switching between regular shot and familiar attacks is key to maintaining the chain.

Sounds like a nice spin on an obvious Metal Slug clone. I just ordered the game so I should have it next week. I'm excited to try it out now, especially because I had no idea about those features you described. Thanks for the info.

Hey man, thanks for the info.
If it's not bother to you It'd be great if you could send me the guide you were talking about.
About the whole localization thing, it probably is a lot of work, and besides I can try and give it a shot myself, I mean I don't speak french at all, but spanish is also a latin language so It could result in a "less impossible" task .
Anyway thanks again for the little review there on the "power-up"ing topic man, really appreciate it

If you need any help with spanish localization (although it may seem unlikely because the lack of games in spanish only) just let me know.
