How it feels
A classic vertical shooter that feels snappy and intense, with modern conveniences making it accessible while retaining old-school arcade thrill.

What players say
Players are split between nostalgia for this classic Toaplan shooter and frustration with the emulation quality. The Gradius-style upgrade system and steep difficulty are called out, but so are persistent bugs like autofire breaking at high scores and off-key sound effects, which have been fixed only partially across updates.
