Game Overview

This Amiga shooter mixes things up by letting you scroll both vertically and horizontally—which sounds minor until you’re dodging turrets from the side while waves of enemies swarm from above. The levels switch up the scenery pretty dramatically—one minute you’re blasting through industrial zones, the next you’re in some weird space forest—but the real surprise is how it loops. Beat the last level? Congrats, you’re back at the start with everything cranked up a notch.

No boss fights here, just escalating chaos: the end of each level throws more enemies and massive ground structures at you until it feels like the screen’s about to explode. The two-player mode’s a blast, though good luck coordinating when everything’s bullets and panic. Fun fact: the arcade version runs on what’s basically Amiga hardware, so if you’ve played one, you’ve technically played both.
