New HyperMan (3-in-1 with Cookie & Bibi & HyperMan) (set 1)

New HyperMan is a 1998 compilation arcade game from SemiCom / XESS, offering three distinct experiences in one cabinet for up to two players. The collection features “New Hyperman,” its predecessor "Hyperman," and the whimsical action of “Cookie & Bibi.” All three titles share a colorful aesthetic and accessible gameplay centered around cooperative action; as players, you'll navigate through varied levels using an 8-way joystick and button controls, battling enemies and collecting items. "New HyperMan" and "Hyperman" involve controlling futuristic heroes to fight against robotic adversaries in side-scrolling environments. In contrast, “Cookie & Bibi” places players in control of gingerbread men who must defeat a variety of creatures. The compilation utilizes hardware rooted in the earlier "Snow Bros" arcade games, providing a familiar feel for fans of Toaplan and Semicom titles. The game’s technical specifications include a Motorola 68000 main processor and Zilog Z80 sound processor which contribute to its distinctive audio and visual presentation—a resolution of 256x224 pixels displayed at a refresh rate of 57.50Hz, utilizing a palette of 256 colors. A team of designers, programmers, and musicians from Semicom contributed to the creation of this multifaceted arcade experience.
