    Originally released in the 1990s exclusively in Japan, Geppy-X returns in a fully remastered edition — and for the first time ever, launches worldwide.
    Blending 70s-style super robot anime with arcade-style 2D side-scrolling shooter action, Geppy-X isn’t just a retro revival — it’s an interactive anime reborn in HD.
    With over 8,000 hand-drawn animation frames and bold CD-ROM-era ambition, this cult Japanese classic finally reaches a global audience.

    ■Play a Super Robot TV Series
    Geppy-X recreates the structure of a classic anime broadcast:
    Time signal → Opening → Episode → Eyecatch → Commercial → Ending → Next episode preview.
    You don’t just watch a super robot show — you play it.
    Three young pilots combine their powers to control the transforming super robot Geppy-X, defending Earth from the invading Space Demon Empire.
    And yes — the mid-season mech upgrade is here.

    ■8,000 Hand-Drawn Frames — Restored
    The original PlayStation version stored animation at 320×240 resolution and 15fps across four discs.
    For this remaster:
    • Original Betacam master tapes re-digitized
    • Modern upscaling enhances clarity
    • Animation restored to its original 24fps
    This is more than an upscale — it’s a full restoration.
