Hard, Fast, and massive bosses. Just like a 2-d Side scrolling shooter should be!
Gameplay- The difficulty ranges from extremely Easy (if you beat it on normal first), Normal, Hard, and the downright have to be hyped up on caffeine Extreme mode. The Controls are tight for both free and fixed shots. Free shot being you can move and shoot and Fixed shot being you can shoot in 8 directions but you can't move while you shoot. Bosses sometime are to daunting for people who have never played a game like this before.
Ill give Gameplay an 9.
Graphics- The graphics are smooth and for a Genesis game I must say its one of the best I've seen. There are even 3-d effects in the game (more in the bosses than anything else). There is only one bad thing about the looks...when you health is in critical levels which ever character is about to die where there health is at the top of the screen it flashes red extremely fast. this is one of those times where people who get seizures should truly take caution.
So a 9.
Sound- Is where the game kinda falls on its face. The soundtrack is pretty much garbage 3 of the songs almost sound exactly the same and most of the time they rehash songs over and over. Even when you get hit they make an annoying sound. So yeah its Mediocre a 5
Value- a is a 7 because of the soundtrack pretty much.
Tilt- Fun but could be better.
