Attack enemies approaching from all sides, quickly and without mercy, with improved 360-degree controls and a lock-on targeting.
Nice railshooter remade for sega fanboys. This game was a big deal on the Sega Saturn back in the day and to get a physical copy now requires you to break your bank. Since i never got to play it on the actual machine this is like a dream come true. Other than that the gameplay does not disappoint and holds up well to modern standards.
This programs may greater than developers thought.
Game is running well just as in-game defaults settings.

No nostalgia here like all other reviews; this game sucks. It doesn't look good, it doesn't play good, it's not fun and it's very short.
I bought it because it was on sale for $2.50. The fact that the game is over in 1 hour and has no replayability and yet they are charging $25 for this is nothing short of a crime.
I finished it on normal missing only 0-3 enemies on each level and 1 death on level 6. It took me literally one hour. There's a cheat menu after you beat it where you can level skip and get god mode and stuff, but there is no point because there is nothing left to do or see.
The only good thing was the music. But that's it. Even the sound is bad. There is no impact to anything.
The game is really dull. No power ups, no branching paths like Star Fox or After Burner Climax. There is no story, you don't know who you are, what the factions are and why you need to fight. There is talk about a Dark Dragon in opening text but it's called Prototype Dragon in-game so they can't even get right something that basic.
It doesn't look good, but environments are servicable. Enemies look like crap and are hardly distinguishable. Bosses are mostly nonsense shapes. Nothing animates well. Your dragon's movements hardly match whatever flying is onscreen. You shoot a gun that looks like a dumb rock.
It doesn't play well. Movement is bad, aiming isn't great, shooting single shots sucks so the lockon shot is what you'll use 99% of the time, no exaggeration. There is no attack telegraphing so many attacks are poorly done.
The game's gimmick is that you can rotate the camera around you in the 4 main directions to find and shoot baddies. But you can only move when you are facing North. You are stuck in one place in the other 3. This makes dodging anything terrible. And your only indication of enemies is a minimap in the top right. So you'll be looking at that more than what's in front of you.
1 star for the music and 1 star because it's technically a functional thing.
Nice remake. I still consider the original to be a better experience, but if you can get this with a discount, there is no reason not to. A well done remake that was improved based on fan feedback.
Get it on sale, and it's a fun arcade game. Now, for the reviewer who said there was no controller support, get an Xbox One controller, it works flawlessly with this game (or any Windows game for that matter). If you have a controller from other brands, that could be the issue. It would also help if you are running the latest Windows.
For other users, if you run into the problem of not finding a save game option, actually, the game auto saves itself between episodes but doesn't tell you this. This freaked me out the first time I played it. Next you boot it up, just go to Start Game, and click Continue, and it will load the stage that you have currently reached.
The one last thing, and if anyone knows, please review and provide the info, the firing button, if there was a way to lock it that would be nice, for me, having to button jam like crazy just isn't as much fun as it used to be, and its the reason why I'm taking a point off for now, cause you know, we're getting old...
Have fun all!
