Gameplay
You steer the robot around projectiles and enemies while choosing the correct firing direction for each approach. Enemies entering from behind make retreating and shooting separate decisions, so position alone does not determine which way you attack. Weapon pickups add options such as wide coverage and a stronger, narrower beam. Repeated pickups can improve equipment, while speed items change how quickly the robot crosses the screen. Item symbols cycle when shot, making the timing of collection relevant to your loadout. The TurboGrafx-16 version uses a paused selection interface for switching acquired weapons. This gives you a way to match an attack to the next situation instead of relying only on the most recent pickup. Bosses and crowded formations still require careful dodging, especially when attacks come from opposite sides. Clearing space with the right weapon helps keep an escape route available.
