Decent? Yes. Front page material? Not sure.
This is a fun game to play - a very good side scrolling shooter much in the style of Gradius or R-Type, with plenty of weapons and frantic action. I just found myself a bit underwhelmed - changing the default controls is a must, the music isn't brilliant and the graphics are alright but mainly functional. The levels also seemed strange - the first for example sees you under fairly heavy assault, but the boss is a walk in the park who couldn't put a finger on me. It's decent, but it's not the best game I've played on NG.
