A fun side scrolling action shooter, very arcady but not quite metal slug. Difficulty spike three quarters through in a bit of an unfair fashion but adjustments were made and I'm sure with time smashing my head against the wall, I would turn out a master of the games language. Ultimately I believe the game would allow you to complete it on one life in one go with a steady hand and still heart. The 80s mashup vibes made for an awesome atmosphere that doesn't feel like it belongs in one specific category of camp for the time. Would recommend for fans of the genre! I was not so gripped as to attempt the additional harder difficulties as I am not so much a glutton for punishment within this genre.
