Another venerated classic in Excellent Soft Design's collected works. The best part of the game were the anime girls in the background that both didn't fit the art style and didn't seem to be done by the same artist. The basic concept would be fine for a quick arcade game if the levels weren't recycled the entire game and it didn't control poorly. The variety of bosses were nice, but the lack of any invincibility frames upon coming back to life (with way to long of a delay) made them feel like quarter munchers more than a challenge you were actually expected to overcome.
