Aries was a peaceful and calm planet for millennia; however, it is now faced with its worst crisis. The deadly army of Obellon fighters led by General Don Jingi, the evil merchant known to do anything for personal gain, is out to steal the “Starlight,” a powerful source of energy that could destroy the universe if misused. You must properly guide the “Hunting Dog” fighter-plane along with Hawk and Esty (special undercover agents protecting the Galaxy) to destroy Obellon before they destroy the world.
You are the last resort of our planet.

giopep's review of Gate of Thunder
This review is for the Turbografx-16/PC Engine CD version
I always loved Gate of Thunder SO MUCH because it was bundled with my beloved Turbo Duo, it boasted amazing music and it really resonated with me in terms of gameplay. Replaying it today, I found out that it probably resonated because it was made but the same people who made Thunderforce III, I still love the soundtrack and I think it’s maybe a bit simple but incredibly polished and fun. Also, I finally beat the final stage, which I don’t think I had done back then. Lovely.
