E.V.O. is one of my favorite games for all its issues so learning that it's actually a kind of remake/sequel to an even weirder game on the PC-98 was incredible. still need to play 46 Okunen Monogatari: The Shinkaron
I freakin' adore EVO. Even if I was never able to make it past the bird people fortress on any playthrough. Such a fun concept for a game. Now I must play the prequel.
Oh man, I learned about this from a TehSnakerer video. Really seems emblematic of an era in which gaming was marginal enough that you could make big, weird swings
