Decent Arcade Action Game Whose Innovations Sorta Fail

Look: 6/10 Functional enough.

Sound: 5/10 The sound effects get a little annoying.

Play: 7/10 It was fun trying to kill the Green Frog, etc., that quickly run across on one perimeter for the bonus points. I felt pretty good at this game, after all the Berzerk derivatives and other arcade shooters I've been playing! The controls are a bit …

Look: 6/10 Functional enough.

Sound: 5/10 The sound effects get a little annoying.

Play: 7/10 It was fun trying to kill the Green Frog, etc., that quickly run across on one perimeter for the bonus points. I felt pretty good at this game, after all the Berzerk derivatives and other arcade shooters I've been playing! The controls are a bit clunky, but still responsive--and the end result is fun enough. Not enough to get addicted or keep retrying too much, though! I definitely prefer the multidirectional shooting parts over the timed bomb parts. Also, I wish you could shoot and move diagonally like Berzerk, Frenzy, etc.

Feel: 8/10 It was nice to feel pretty good at the multidirectional shooter part ha, tho that probly really just means the gameplay is a bit too simple and easy heh. I always love when you can shoot enemy bullets. It felt nice to actually manage to dodge enemy missiles and do quick turns and kill, feeling better about my gaming abilities from this sort of like how Solar Fox fortunately had the Novice setting heh. I overrated this a bit, cuz it made me feel better about my gaming abilities lol.

Attachment: 6/10 I might as well play Berzerk or Frenzy etc, if I am going to return to early multidirectional shooters! Maybe if I enjoyed the innovative timed bomb part more, but, well, I don't ha.
