I CANT STOP PLAYING THANK YOU FOR THIS one of the best shooters I ever played and I played a hell lotta shooters in my life

A bright, colourful and easy-to-play SHMUP that reminds me of happy days gone past with R-Type and other 90s games in the genre. The difficulty level is good for people (like me) who are not twitch-fiends or bullet-hell enthusiasts. Tough enough to be challenging, not so tough you give up. If you're a bit fan of this genre, I imagine you'll find it very easy. You can change your load out each level, which gives you variety of strategies to try. There's a wide range of enemy types that forces you to switch your playstyles from time to time, and a few bonus objectives in each mission that allow you to stretch yourself. My one criticism is that the plot doesn't make a lot of sense. Apparently the idea was to only tell you part of the story, so you had to piece things together from your little perspective in a grander war. But I found it too confusing to follow. Not that it matters though, this is a shooter, not Mass Effect. Well worth a try!

One of the most interesting shooters of all time. I play it for Windows 98... It was the same experience. Thank you gog!

It is a timeless gem and a testament to the genre.

Classic and probably the best game of its kind.
