Comment: "Probably the best early vertical space shooter there is. Gameplay excellent, graphics good, fast-paced and challenging. Somewhat overrated. "

Comment: "The pinnacle of 2D space shooters. One of the few games where enemies come in scripted waves, but the challenge never seems to diminish."
