Category: PC Engine Super CD ROM

Play as pilot of the Hunting Dog assisted by power ups from the Wild Cat in the shape of pods to help protect your ship. Heavy metal soundtrack, but no time for head banging apart from against the monitor as relentless waves swarm in to attack. Similar to the MD’s Thunderforce and prequel to Winds of Thunder. Some very tidy rotation and parallax effects as Hudson demonstrates its perfect grasp of the Engine architecture with backgrounds that close in on you inducing claustrophobia.

Timothy ★★★★★

I was blown away by the heavy metal soundtrack—it really sets the pace for the frantic action. The pod system took a minute to figure out, but once I did, my ship felt unstoppable against those relentless bosses.

Carter V. ★★★★★

The pod system is a game-changer once you get the hang of it, really changes how you approach each stage. That heavy metal soundtrack had me grinning the whole way through, even when I was getting wrecked by the later bosses.

Leo ★★★★★

That heavy metal soundtrack is so aggressive it actually makes the boss fights feel more intense. The pod system for power-ups took me a few tries to master, but once you get the hang of it the ship feels incredibly versatile. Definitely a must-play for any shmup fan on the PC Engine.
