Twin Bee aircraft footage by Brian Neidhardt,
I didn’t use any info from them this time but they are a great site shmuplations.com
Some music, and radio dramas were thankfully preserved and archived by Ryan Landry. Soundtracks include Twinbee Vocal Paradise, Twinbee Paradise Sound Fantasia, Twinbee RPG, Konami Rebirth and some from the game itself.
Commercials archived and preserved by Satoshi Matrix, Mr. Retrogreg, chirikun, nataukashii cm paradise, kooling, NS944A
Gameplay footage mostly from World of Longplays but also darkleon, fatboy890, arcade games, hirudov2d, Jon Chilly, SuperViper T302, Fel1230, retropals, James Avery, aaronmunroe, Project longplay, great Twinbee fan, Stardaisy117, Super Longplay, AceNoctali, Digiarchetrype NG, Genentech Mikado, eb3fan, andyxdr, ko ramedo, edusword, vintagamers paradise. If anything is wrong, let me know, I’ll fix it!
I love Twinbee but the timeline of events, and the games and their releases is REALLY confusing. Before we go any further lets recap. In chronological order and each way you can play them.
