Vertical shoot em up, TwinBee sequel made just for the SNES. Made to be easier than the other games in the series, you have a lifebar but reset a stage upon death. Three different option weapon formation types can be chosen at start and you have a forward shot that can be modified with upgrades, a strong punch attack, attack for ground targets, and a bomb weapon. Your punch attack can also be used to deflect enemy shots and has enough range and a hit box that continues for a short time after the initial blow that it can be used to wipe out stronger enemies or some formations before they can start attacking. Score is increased and upgrade are acquired by shooting into the center of clouds, which will release a bell that can be juggled by shooting it. As you shoot the color will change from the gold score version to other colors that can give you your option weapons, change your shot type, give a shield, or change your movement speed.

Bright pastel colors, varied emotive enemies, and detailed stage backgrounds you can appreciate with the slower nature of the game.
