 Parasol Stars - Reader Review - GameFAQs
The graphics in Parasol Stars may be considered good, but the fact this game was made in 1991 means they should be better.
The game focuses on using parasols and shooting enemies or water droplets at other enemies.
Bubble Bobble was similar in the fact that Parasol Stars plays a lot more like Bubble Bobble than Rainbow Islands.

 Taito Legends line-up /// Eurogamer
Actually, Parasol Stars and Bubble Bobble are the same game basically but with a different gameplay approach - and more story.
If they stick together a nice package with lots of extras, and don't take the Capcom approach of "Just the games, sod all else", it'll be awesome.
I still look at these three games as the "proper" trilogy.

 Blast from the Past
Both versions suffer from the "1-button joystick syndrome" which force the player to pull joystick up to make characters jump, while the parasol is operated by pressing the button.
Parasols have an incredible power: they can stop bullets; lift enemies, throw them far away, making them fall in a coma and finally crush them; collect water-filled bubbles and create falls which will catch all they find on their path (do you remember the Liquid Kids game?
The Amiga version lacks a bit of playability, and the game also pauses during levels loading.

By pure chance GTW discovered that Colin was behind the game when he first spoke to GTW and talked of working on Rainbow Islands that got scrapped.
What with knowing that we will never see the almost complete version that was created, what is left now in the hope of discovering anything of the game?
This caught everyone by surprise, including several mail order software firms who, anticipating it's release, had included the game in their adverts.

I am sure some of you who are reading this have played the game Parasol Stars on the TurboGrafx?
Well, if you even remotely liked that game, Chip Chan Kick is exactly like that, but a lot better!
You control either Chip or Chap (Chap doesn’t seem to be “into it”as much as Chip is) and you have, what I like to call, “squishy blobs with eyes” that you can throw to hit enemies, which stun them for a limited amount of time.

 Raspy tongue... Retro View - Retrogaming and emulation
For those poor unfortunates who have never played any of the aforementioned classics, the concept behind these games and others like them is simple - platform action where the aim is to dispose of a handful of baddies on each screen using whatever outlandish method dreamt up by the manafacturer.
Here's how the game works: each stage is set on a single platform-littered screen.
For years after the release of Taito's magnificent Bubble Bobble, many arcade manafacturers copied it's basic two-simultaneous-players-cutesy-platform formula in the hope of cashing in on the game's success.

It is curious to see that it uses a font that is almost identical to those used by Taito in the majority of their arcade games from mid 80s until 1990.
'Growl' (1990 arcade version) uses a very similar font to that of the PC Engine Parasol Stars, and here we are: there is no Taito's arcade game, 1991 copyrighted, using this font.
In 1991, Taito launches in Japan the version for the PC Engine console, known in USA and Europe as TurboGrafx (Parasol Stars also was launched in the USA for TurboGrafx).
