fcgamer | 5,020 Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Been playing through Nebs n Debs recently, what a really fun game it seems to be! The one thing I am somewhat confused about, and hoping that someone can assist with (my version of the game is the Famicom version, with a Japanese manual). How does one execute multiple dashes? Doing a search online suggests that running into the crystals allows one to execute multiple dashes, but how about with the control scheme? Do you have to hit the button at a certain time or wait for the other dash to be complete or what to execute it properly? I was able to do it a few times, but each time I wasn't exactly sure *what* I did to execute it, and it seems such dashes will become most important in the later levels. Thanks.

fcgamer | 5,020 Posted July 10, 2023 Author Share Posted July 10, 2023 Okay figured it out, seems you can double dash if you plow through enemies or walls. Thanks everyone for the assistance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if they wrote the thing entirely in kanji maybe I could! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki | 5,145 Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 I see Manuel pop up on ebay so often I'm surprised they're not shut down for trafficking. I think I'd have a better shot at reading enough Japanese at this rate than dave would, until it gets into kanji considering it was stolen from chinese (mandarin I believe.)

Sumez | 3,170 Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 (edited) Nebs 'n Debs is probably my favourite NES homebrew game. Speaking of "forced second quests", that game's approach to the second loop is also perfect IMO. The first loop is pretty much the tutorial, where you get near infinite tries on every stage because of the 1ups you can pick up along the way. Then the second loop goes "hey cool, now let's see if you can do it without failing all the time!". The stages are the same, but the stakes are much higher. It's a beefy game because learning the stages and making it through takes a while. But once you do nail a stage, it's lightning fast. A speedrun through the game takes like five minutes, it's perfect. Edited July 17, 2023 by Sumez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMR | 545 Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 You could try contacting the creator and asking if he'll send you a pdf of the English version. I can send you one if he doesn't respond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
