This is a case of a game that was simply too ambitious for its system. The Super Nintendo can just barely keep up with it; the controls are even jankier than in the first game; simple actions such as moving the camera, shooting, or jumping have an incredibly notorious input delay; and the level design is extremely bland, having you shoot at four enemy ships or go through a small maze and press a switch to let you progress. It's also like 20 minutes long and incredible easy, as almost every boss dies after two hits.

It's really impressive from a technical standpoint, though the result is a barebones game.
