Oddly, you cannot see the number of stars you have already collected so, unless you count them, you should probably try to get as many as you can. Meanwhile, you can collect stars which, if you have enough, grant you extra lives at the end of the level. You must dodge obstacles and incapacitate enemies with your whip while making your way to the end. Most of the levels you are in control of Woody as he tries to fulfill the goal mentioned at the beginning of the level. The gameplay of Toy Story is very varied. The bouncy tunes and effects maintain the toy-ish atmosphere, though. Scratchy voice samples chime in now and then, but not often enough. The plain one-color backgrounds, however, detract from the 3D feel.
Everything's rendered in striking 3D detail and moves with fluid realism. Using a proprietary new graphics technology, Disney nearly transforms your Genesis into a Saturn with graphics that are astonishingly similar to Clockwork Knight's. Renegade toys and other evils stalk you as you uncover routes past looming book shelves and other towering obstacles. When his jealous plan to regain the top spot backfires and endangers Buzz, Woody must rescue his foe or be outcast by the other toys.Įquipped with only a whip and jump, you explore bedrooms, a pizza parlor, and the neighbor's house from the perspective of a small toy. Beautiful Storyįollowing the film's plot, Woody, a pull-string cowboy, suddenly faces competition from new arrival Buzz. But its beauty is only surface deep: The dull gameplay will please only diehard fans of the flick.
I do wish that there was more clear speech though as that would really have put the presentation over the edge in my opinion.īased on Disney's latest animated extravaganza, Toy Story will bewitch you with eye-popping graphics.
The soundtrack is decent enough with some tunes from the movie and some original songs as well.
The main characters like Woody and Buzz look great, but so does the supporting cast along with the levels. I am not tech whizz, but the graphics have a kind of “ Donkey Kong Country” look about them where they are 3D models, but they are in this 2D game. For a 16-bit game, they managed to capture the high-tech look of the movie very well. So Close To The Real ThingĪt the time the game and the movie were released people flipped out over how good they looked. Even with the Genesis rather limited color palette compared to the SNES, they look fantastic. The plot of the game follows the movie very well, I would say it is fair to assume that by this point you know what the deal is with the plot of the first Toy Story movie! The game tells the story through still pictures and text that look like they are taken from the movie.
