A steam-punk shooter on the Genesis! This one is neat because it's all made in the conceit that it's an old-timey war-film, so don't adjust your sets! The cutscenes are meant to flicker.
Besides the aesthetic, the game has a couple uncommon shooter mechanics: The ability to shoot in either direction, and a persistent level-up system. Each time you grab an EX item you fill up one of three slots in your status bar. Once that fills and rolls over you gain a level giving you and your wingmen additional firepower. Even if you lose a life your weapons keep their strength!
Other items include an "S" for addional speed, an "O" which grants you wingmen ("options"), and a "B" for an additional smart bomb!
Bosses with multiple weapons that van be individually wrecked are featured and are destroyed once you demolish their core!
I choose to pilot the blimp for the first couple levels simply because it has more health. I don't care much for the way it lobs bombs or its mobility. The smaller craft you can pilot zips around and can fit between projectiles more readily. Once you've leveled up a bit the health is more than satisfactory!
