BE A KING RATHER THAN EXPERT

The sequel to Toaplan’s legendary vertically scrolling shoot ‘em up masterpiece Truxton brings even more intense hardcore space action. Truxton II is one of the hardest Toaplan games with higher difficulty than its predecessor. The thrilling insane action is unforgiving and appealing to the most hardened shmup veterans. Casual players who dare to play Truxton II can at least take solace in the added easy mode, and the modern features of rewind and quick save that gives a fighting chance to advance through the quick bullet rain and tough bosses.

“The visuals are freaking amazing, not just for their time, but even by today’s standards. It’s one of the coolest looking games ever made.” – Shmup Junkie

The story of Truxton II:
“During the time of the grand battle known as Tatsujin, another battle was being fought in a remote area of the infinite universe, with similar stakes. The battle was known as Tatsujin Oh.”

ORIGINAL GAME FEATURES:

  • Visually stunning pixel art graphics with intoxicating bosses and atmosphere of dread.
  • Team up two players co-op with two HyperFighters taking on the insanely difficult enemy.
  • The blue laser that automatically tracks the enemy is back as a "search laser" in Truxton II, alongside a high-powered red "napalm bomb" and a green "normal shot" that becomes wide-range with power-ups.
  • Melodic soundtrack with vibrant songs composed by Masahiro Yuge, the legendary musician behind the music to games like Flying Shark, Twin Cobra, and Truxton.

QUALITY OF LIFE IMPROVEMENTS:

  • Minimal Input Lag: Emulation, input processing, and rendering all complete on the same frame.
  • Quick Save using F1-F10, Reload with Shift+ F1-F10
  • Online leaderboards for Single Credit, No Assist, and Assisted plays.
  • Rewind the game between 10-18 minutes, depending on the action.
  • Capture sharable replays to immortalize your interstellar victories (or funny moments).
  • Assist Features such as auto-fire at multiple rates.
  • Very Easy Mode: Lower the difficulty to breeze through the adventure.
  • Pixel perfect or full-screen scaling in windowed or full-screen mode.
  • Rotate the gameplay in 90-degree increments.
  • Hone your skills in the ultra-customizable practice mode!

Buggy port.

I'll keep it brief. It's Truxton 2 without too many frills, which would normally be fine because Truxton 2 is great and this game is dirt cheap. The port has given me a lot of headaches, though. The game file randomly became corrupted today for no discernable reason and would not redownload, so it required me to manually download the file and stash it somewhere else on my drive, which is annoying. Also, if you continue after getting blown to bits (and you will), you lose the ability to shoot anything and not even rebinding the keys will work, so you have to exit the program to get it to work again. You've got rewind, and scan lines, and a bunch of that boring stuff, but the experience has been really broken for me, which is a shame, because Truxton 2 is killer.
