I remember playing this...actually IDK. I went to go check when I talked to someone about this game on Discord but couldn't find it. I wasn't a fan of the game and thought people were just overrating it. I decided to give it a 2nd chance and I actually finished it and enjoyed it.

Apparently every version of this game is different which surprised me because this still feels like an MSX game to me. It's got a variety of projectile attacks and ESP moves to help you get to the end. One tip I'll give is getting 1,000 points refills your ESP so getting the B icon is worth doing.

I do wish the game had more levels because there's only four but the levels are a good length to be fair. I'm not too big on the lack of i-frames but the game isn't too challenging. By the end you feel so unstoppable especially with the barrier. I still don't really get the point of the one that takes you back to the beginning of the stage. Even the bosses are decent but are pretty easy with the final boss especially being easy. Even the main bad guy is a scripted win but it don't bother me.

If you're looking for good Game Gear games to play, this might be one worth looking into. Oddly the Japanese version is completely in English which I don't really understand why. A fun action game that once you get used to can be a good time. Wouldn't mind replaying this in the future.
