About

Top Gun: Guts and Glory is a modern jet flight simulation that was released in 1993 for the original Nintendo Game Boy in Europe and North America. This video game is loosely based on the Top Gun film featuring Tom Cruise. Basically controlling a cutting edge U.S. Aviation based armed forces stream through ten levels, players must take out adversary jet fighters while withstanding enemy ships. Airplanes that can be picked include the F-14 Tomcat, the F-117A Nighthawk covertness contender, the F-16 Fighting Falcon, and the Soviet-made MiG-29 Fulcrum. Players can either commit themselves to a long career mode, take part in a snappy air battle meeting, or go on a bombarding run. Passwords help store the player's advancement in career mode. Because of different constraints found on the first Game Boy framework, the player can just observe and battle against two enemy airplanes at once.
