Section Z is a shmup under the Capcom umbrella where you take the role of a lonely astronaut. With a gun in hand and various weapons and forms of aid in the distance, you make your way from the introductory Section A to, hopefully, the titular Section Z.
The game's gimmick lies in its second button. Instead of changing weapons or allowing you to jump, it gives you the ability to change the direction you're facing. It's a neat little quirk that allows you to shoot at a direction while flying at the opposite and it's a great way to clear enemies off the map.
Other than that gimmick, the game doesn't have much going for it so if you get bored of switching from side to side, you'll find little enjoyment in this game. Or you could end up having too much fun mashing the side switch button like I did, leaving the astronaut in a haze and always shooting at the wrong direction!
