Category: Super Famicom

Conversion of the arcade monolith based on part two with an extra intro level. Tough and unforgiving, but the true shmup fan wouldn’t have it any other way. Never has Genki been so grateful for slowdown to get out of the many tight fixes that must come with trying to contain the expansion of the Bydo Empire in R-Type.

Edward ★★★★★

Finally, a shmup that actually punishes you for making mistakes. The difficulty ramp in that extra intro level perfectly sets the tone for the relentless arcade action ahead. I've been playing on a real Super Famicom and the slowdown feels intentional and fair.

Amelia ★★★★★

The extra intro level is a nice touch that sets the tone before the real chaos kicks in, and the slowdown really is a lifesaver during the bullet storms. It's brutally hard in that classic arcade way, but that's exactly what I was hoping for.

Abigail ★★★★★

The difficulty spike after the first stage caught me off guard, but that's exactly what makes this cart so rewarding. The extra intro level really does help you ease into the chaos before the real challenge kicks in.
