There are 4 front-firing options (guns, plasma, magma and laser-beams – guns can be built up quickly but lack top-end power compared to the others) as well as speed-up (only requires one token), side-shot, up to 3 homing missiles, build (a quick super-destructive blast that only functions when you aren’t using auto-fire) and stealth (a period of invulnerability).Įach level has a very different setting, and an end-of-level boss to defeat. These give off blue power-up tokens, which are used towards selecting one of many weapons. The attack waves vary in style, with some attacking you from quite fiendish angles. Six levels of horizontally-scrolling shooting await in this R-Type style action game.
