After numerous delays, Watermelon finally released the Brawler Paprium for the Sega Genesis!
Paprium makes use of customized special chip DT128M16VA1LT - aka "Datenmeister" - chipset for sound and sprite scaling.

Year 8A2, somewhere at equidistant point between Shanghai, Tokyo and Pyongyang, a Megapolis rose from ashes of the shortest but most devastating nuclear war in history, its name is PAPRIUM.
BRUTAL, MASSIVE. You will fight your way through the city with Tug, Alex and Dice.
Redefine the word justice, deal with the BLU drug temptation, and more importantly: STAY ALIVE!​

Always cool to see old systems receive new games from dedicated fans. Having said that, wish it were something a little more unique than yet another brawler for the 16-bit generation, those systems saw more than their fair share of these kinds of games.
