A fine, forgettable shooter that's been elevated to cult status by being extremely rare (and by the fact that the company that made it never did anything else).

It's got some cool visuals, and some chunky, uniquely-Genesis tunes, but nothing I'd trip over myself recommending. Gameplay ranges from moderately appealing to downright unpleasant (looking at you, slow, trap-laden R-Typey levels); and my least favorite thing, so seemingly-small but so ridiculously impactful on the experience, is how the weapon switching feels laggy instead of instantaneous like it should (like it does in, say, Alien Soldier).
