Stargunner

An Apogee game, the very last one, and one I had not played. I was very hyped and looking forward to th is. But...it was not to be. The sprrites are huge and poorly made, animations and effects are subpar, your attack graphics are the same with the enemy's. The levels are mostly variations of three themes (space, terran and oceanic), and the enemy sprites are uninspired. On one level you fight a floating megacity that has a size similar to your ship, and on the very next level you fight against realistic human battleship much larger than an enire floating city. The game itself is unnecessarily tough, with whole levels existing just to screw with the player. The end game bosses can either be exploited due to poor design, or they will totally murder you. And even worse, between each episode you lose your hard earned progress. This is not a game I can recommend, and I am grateful I got it for free. If it is not free, stay away!

just pc version of r type like direct rip off so sorry cant give it a good review like rest of you

Stargunner is one of them type of games that remind of the Commodore VIC 20 or the Commodore 64, not quite from them days but you get my meaning. To be honest, this is not for me, as much as I love to shoot them ups and Space sims, flying and dodging enemy ships, this side scroller just didn't cut it for me, I think I'll be leaving this game in the past where it clearly belongs.

Atmospheric side shooter. They tool ideas from well-established products like Raiden and Star Wars. Setting is off and overall not that great. But cannot complain it’s free.

goood game!
