SNK Corporation © 1979 [Coin-Op] Arcade Video Game Emulator: MAME 0.194 Couldn't figure out if I liked this or hated it. Felt like a good ol' classic arcade game on one hand... and then it just had so many weird, glitchy, unfair elements that would just tick you off. For instance, these guys blink and are temporarily invisible.. and I don't know if that is programmed that way or a glitch - it seems like it could be either. And there are other times where guided missiles just appear out of nowhere... I was going in for a kill, and it just destroyed me from nowhere. Or how about this... die, and then immediately die again without any chance of survival. Yeah, this game could've definitely used some play testing. And even in spite of that, I found myself playing it for some time because it was still fun, and I wanted to get further. Also, each stage was distinct... which makes you want to progress. And the "Energy" was the first implementation of something like a life meter instead of just set "lives" to deplete. You make it to each refilling stage, and you get full life. So, enough to enjoy here even with the crazy glitchy stuff.
