Game Overview

Air Buster is one of those arcade shooters that feels like it’s actively trying to knock you out of the sky—in the best way possible. You start off with this little ship that somehow packs way more firepower than it looks, weaving through waves of enemies that just keep coming. The first level lulls you into thinking it’s manageable, then suddenly there’s bullets everywhere and you’re mashing the bomb button like your life depends on it (because it does).

What I love is how the power-ups actually feel meaningful—grabbing that spread shot or homing missiles changes the whole flow. And the bosses? Huge, screen-filling monstrosities that take forever to whittle down while you dodge their absurd attack patterns. It’s got that classic arcade cruelty where one mistake can wreck a run, but when you finally clear a tough stage, it’s pure satisfaction.

If you’ve got a soft spot for 90s arcade chaos or just want to see how shooters used to punish people, this one’s a blast. Just don’t blame me when you start memorizing enemy spawns after your twentieth continue.
