Arrow Flash


Here's the best game yet from the Genesis project - a side-scrolling space shooter that felt like an undercooked R-Type. You're a spaceship. But you're also sort of a Transformer I guess, because you can turn into a Mega Man-like robot creature (see the cover art for a specific idea) who shoots the same guns as the spaceship. There was really very little difference whether you played as the spaceship or the autobot. You travel at the same speed either way, and one hit from an enemy always kills you. The only difference was your special weapon, which in robot-form was some sort of invincibility (think of Sonic's final smash in Super Smash Bros. Brawl if that's a helpful reference) and in ship form was just a giant barrage of bullets. I had some actual fun with this one, so, you know. Here's the new bar.
