I guess that is supposed to be Disk-kun. This was the last in Tokuma Shoten's Famimaga Disk series and the last FDS game. Disk-kun apparently appeared in comics in Famimaga (Family Computer Magazine).

Love Lolo. Love old-school console RPGs. Love silly graphics. This looks like a must-have for me. Last time I tried to emulate a FDS game it kinda didn't work though.. at all. Don't even remember which emulator I used.

You need the bios. And use FCEUX.

I tried this game and it doesn't feel ANYTHING like Eggerland/Lolo games. I've been cheated! xD

Yeah I guess the lolo part was a bit misleading. It plays like it, but the puzzle solving is more about matching the enemies to make them disappear than what you have to do in Lolo.

What about this game plays like Eggerland/Lolo games, if you don't mind me asking? Other than being a puzzle game. I don't get any Eggerland/Lolo vibes from this game and I'm a huge Eggerland/Adventures of Lolo fan: www.mobygames.com/user/sheet/userSheetId,93047/ www.hardcoregaming101.net/eggerland/eggerland.htmThe only thing that reminds me of Eggerland/Lolo series is the main character, Disk-kun, who resembles Rocky monsters from Eggerland/Lolo games. That's pretty much it.

Well, the second I started the game it reminded me of Lolo 3. The puzzle rooms are about managing your way through the enemies to get treasures and reach the exit. The size and shape of the characters remind me of the style Lolo uses for their characters too. Even some of those... enemy statues (?) look like that ever annoying Lolo enemy that shots needles at you.
I know there are more games in which you do just that, but to me this game feels almost as a Lolo spinoff.
Here are the credits just in case there's anyone of some recognition, though I doubt it since the game wasn't made by Nintendo or HAL.
Original game idea masaki nakagawa
main programmer kenichi onose
boss character program osamu mito
opening, ending takeshi sawada
music composer takeshi sawada
visual design shogo nakamura
scenario design munenori takeda
chief director kunihiro oba
executive producer fumio nakamura
special thanks gin-pro by ozawa s.c.c. all staff
I wonder if this is really Disk Kun or not. There's no mention of Nintendo anywhere and this game was made in 1992, wasn't the FDS dead already?

I don't consider Janken Disk Shiro (Rock-paper-scissors Disk White ;D) a Lolo clone in any way, because the blend of action and puzzle elements that made Eggerland/Lolo games so great and unique, isn't in this game. This is just one of these "Lolo clones" that doesn't really feel or play like a Lolo game, even though few people call them that.

I still don't really agree with you, but that sounds a bit better.

Thanks for the credits, Rey. Looks like the same staff worked on Tokuma Shoten's SFC RPG Eien no Filerna. Even Nintendo's website says this was the last disk game. Japanese sites I'm looking at say this does star Disk-kun. Also, most of the Famimaga Disk games were only available through the Disk Writer.
