Gameplay

22 of 103 sampled reviews raised it
There's a lot of content here too: unlockable ships, color customization for the bullets, CRT filters and a hard as nails challenge mode.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
19 of 103 sampled reviews raised it
Great visuals, good music, super tight controls and more than enough challenge, make for a SHMUP that fans of the genre are going love.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
18 of 103 sampled reviews raised it
Equally impressive is the rocking soundtrack, thanks to the pairing of Hyakutaro Tsukumo (Technosoft) and Qwesta; a group that has taken their musical inspirations from Hyakutaro Tsukumo.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
17 of 103 sampled reviews raised it
The controls are spot on, on both systems, the graphics take us back to a much earlier and beloved time in gaming, and the difficulty is perfectly set.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
8 of 103 sampled reviews raised it
Not exactly with the same game mechanics of storing multiple weapons, but in sound and style it's very much TF.
