| Paprium (Video Game) | comment |
Paprium is a 2020 indie Beat 'em Up action game developed by WaterMelon studios, specifically to run on the Sega Mega Drive, with aesthetics resembling old-timey arcade action games from the late 80s and early 90s.Set in the futuristic year of 842 (!!!) note the hexadecimal value for what would be the year 2210 after a nuclear war decimated most of humanity, a new Megacity is formed somewhere between the ruins of what used to be Tokyo, Shanghai and Pyongyang. Said city is called Paprium, and is a hive of criminal activity filled with thugs and murderers who controls the streets.Players assume the roles of three soldiers, Dice(the Jack of All Stats), Alex (the Fragile Speedster Token Female), and Tug (the Mighty Glacier Scary Black Man), who will restore order to Paprium by way of fists.The game is notable for using a on-cartridge co-processor to decompress data to send to the console, and being extremely finicky as it will not run on certain MegaDrive models, and most certainly not on emulation-based hardware like the Hyperkin or the AtGames made ARM-based Genesis clones. It also could not be emulated due to its co-processor for which there is currently no support in any existing MegaDrive emulator. | |

The Tooth Hurts | |
| Paprium (Video Game) / int_21bde5e8 | comment |
The Tooth Hurts: It's slightly hard to notice, but occasionally after punching mooks (those which aren't robots and / or obscuring their faces, that it) repeatedly in their faces, you can see their teeth popping out with each blow. | |

Artificial Stupidity | |
| Paprium (Video Game) / int_940a5958 | comment |
Artificial Stupidity: There's a stage in an aerial catwalk with holes underneath, which you risk falling through and losing a life. Mooks in the same stage - somehow - will, in a blindsided attempt to charge at you, repeatedly run into the holes and fall to their deaths. It's really easy to exploit this trope by staying near these holes when fighting, tricking mooks into killing themselves for no reason. | |

Amazing Technicolor Population: Because of the setting being in a crapsack future after a nuclear war, most of the population of Paprium have oddly-coloured skin, including yellow, orange, silver… two of the bosses, Retro and Rondo, are respectively purple and green. | |

Shout-Out: The Machu-type mooks, being effeminate bare-chested black thugs in skintight pants, who attacks by dry-humping you and taunt you from afar by slapping their own butts, is practically cribbed from the arcade classic Vendetta (1991). Slaine, one of the bosses, is dressed like Mario, together with a familiar-looking red hat and a thick beard. A billboard in the background final stage reveals that this game is set in a future where toilet paper no longer exists as a luxury. Isn't that the same crapsack future from Demolition Man? | |

Interchangeable Asian Cultures: The street buildings have signs mixed with Chinese, Japanese and Korean language at random, which makes zero sense if translated by the speakers of either / all three language.

He appears as you board the train too, as a casual passenger... the moment the train stops, you get off and fights him at the end of the stage. | |
