Raiden Trad is an over-head vertical-scrolling shooter, based on an arcade game of the same title. It features two forms of weapon upgrades and two types of missiles (normal or homing). You start the game with several bombs which you can use to destroy most enemies on the screen to get yourself out of a jam. Each level ends with a large boss or bosses.

Beat on normal. I used homing missiles for secondary and tried both primary weapons. By the time my weapon was fully powered I had used both the spread and beam. The spread was good for normal enemies and could help clear the screen easily. For the rest of the game I used the beam for its concentrated damage; I found the missiles could handle off center targets well enough and the beam could very quickly wreck bosses. The bullet hell on the bosses was very challenging but the rest of the game is dull and generic. The most annoying part was how the weapon upgrades would stay on screen and move around in wide circles. So I had to keep on eye on them to try and not replace the weapons, which got me killed a few times. Mediocre game.
