Wow, a shoot-'em-up. I remember that old classic genre moulder R-Type. But can you really re-create the past?

A side scrolling shoot-'em-up in the same mould as those classic games of yesteryear. Your ship flies across the screen as oncoming waves of enemy ships attack you. Shoot them down or be destroyed.

Upgrades are available with the likes of three-way firing. Controls with joystick or keyboard.

Graphics are adequate enough with decent sound, but the gameplay is very R-Type and doesn't seem to improve on that twenty-odd year old gameplay. One major gripe against the game is the narrow playing area. Also dark playing background against a black screen doesn't help.

I'm not a great fan of side scrolling shoot-'em-ups. I think they've had their day. That's not to say that this game is a total disaster. The graphics are good and there's some decent gameplay to be had here. You just might enjoy the game more if this genre is your bag.

Complete level one.

A good old fashioned shooter. That's the problem!
