It is almost impossible to play this game without cheat. My friend and I used this one cheat which made this game a lot better to play. For each level, you have one power up cheat. It is up up down down left right left right B A start. Now it is almost a fair game to play. We also found out there are a lot of "secrets" in this game. If you kill the boss fast enough with a pretty high score, you will have a secret level to play. When your shield wears off, you can always use the question mark and get another one. Even with the cheat, the game is still pretty hard. We only got to the third level. It is a pretty fun game to play in general. This is the kind of game that you will fight your friend for the controller and see who can pass that "hard part" in the game.

It is a very hard and frustrating game. It was made in 1986, so it is one of the earliest space plane shooting games. Rules in this game is relatively simple, however, there is a lot of modification comparing to the ealiest space plane shooting games like "Space Invader". There are different stages and each stage has its own boss. You can eat the "energy box". And you can improve your weapons and speed based on your preference. There are many different types of enemies in each different stage. Even though, it is still a quite straight forward space place shooting game comparing to the games in nowadays; it does not really have a story line behind it; you can understand the game rightaway. However, this game is extremely hard to master. You only have 4 lives to finish the whole game. It is almost impossible. Even though there are certain patterns in each part, it will take you a long time to figure those out. This is the type of the game that will make you sit there and play it for hours then get frustrated about it. You always come very closely to beat a very hard part, then you die. You have to start all over again. So generally it is a pretty fun game but extremely frustrating.
