Ratings and reviews

Love the graphics, but I'm having trouble regarding ing the interface, I'm not able to discern the outside (damaging) edges of the hazards and projectiles I'm facing in the game. Can you define the hazards and projectiles with different values and/or textures where possible? Also is there a sensitivity switch to speed up/ or slow down? Maybe it's just me, but I don't have any similar issues with any other of the titles I play. I'm either 2 slow/ or 2 fast.

This was a brilliant time killer. Could have kept you focus for quite some time. Was a fantastic game then and was. Was a must have. Changed to 1 star because you have to have a star. Just tried to play this game, however it says unpack failed even though permissions granted. Don't think I'll get a refund either, even though I'd rather a fix by th developer or remover it from the Play Store.

One of my favourite side-scroll shoot-em-ups of all time. Looks exactly how I remember it from the arcade and my Amiga 500. Maybe I'm getting old, but I don't remember it being this hard. It might be down to having a joystick for the other versions so your thumbs didn't get in the way of bad guys behind you 😁 If there was a choice of difficulties, I get the feeling this would be set at hard! Please let us have an easier mode to practice with.
