[@tadeogomez7303]

[@henrybautista3560]

This is my own interpretation of the ending is trying to say: Brawshella, known as the Ringleader, was destroyed by a small band of pilots, who risked their lives in combat to liberate those that were captured by the Ringleader, and ending an interplanetary war that’d lasted for so long at the same time. Our heroes must not rest, however, as peace must be restored all over the galaxy; here’s to hope that such a war on such a scale like this will never happen.

[@santasangre996]

nice copy pasting

[@Terbie36]

It feels like as if they went to the future, Google-translated the ending and returned to the past.

Looks incredible dificullt. By the way, there is an arcade shot em up game called Carrier Air Wing/US Navy. Could You do a boss run on it. There is a total of 10 bosses.

[@nathanalexandre9043]

Been there done it myself it's easier than it looks.

[@n-ergythemighty2283]

The graphics in this game, especially the sprite animations, are utterly beautiful. Too bad the difficulty is just as infuriating as stepping onto a meadow of Legos. Eh, that was old-school horizontal space shooters for ya.

[@ElToland]

The intro looks awesome too.

[@benjamincontrerastorres4018]

Something i never knew was the angels, never knew what they do, anyone knows?

[@lipucd]

@@benjamincontrerastorres4018 I'm late towards this convo but the angles work as multipliers for the bonus items you collect. There's even a trick for stage 1 to force a rainbow angle to spawn just before the big waves of popcorn foes that each drop a bonus item, maxing out the bonus value for all items as long as you don't miss any for the rest of the game. It's fore sure though one of those things that requires years of playing this game and knowing when to let things just fly past you (to not spawn bonus items you'd be unable to collect and as such lose the score) and when to attack. Even going so far as to let a few bosses time out as you get more score from the bonuses then you would defeating them.

[@DavideGendo]

I saw it in an arcade back when it was new. I think the Neo Geo logo's appearance was deactivated (it's possible to set it to do that), so not only I was blown away by the graphics - which hold incredibly well for being 3D-modeled - and the music, I realized it was a NG game only years later. The system is remembered mostly for fighting games and Metal Slug but it's often forgotten it was also home to several excellent shooters. I hope you'll do more of them, like Zed Blade and Last Resort!

[@Wolf1803]

the final boss looks too spooky

[@MasterV]

That baby boss completely threw me off. Definitely didn't expect that!

[@camil2003]

Master V when it transformed into that death gigas was when my mouth dropped and I had to step away.

[@centaurigamer9156]

I was disturbed when that fetus turned into some abomination that i never forget forever.

[@FalloutJack]

It was on the third day of the local anime convention when I first played this game. On that morning, on the way to the convention, I passed by a picket line of anti-abortionists. So, when I reached the final level of Blazing Star, my reaction to this was "Oh man, those people are gonna kill me...".

[@Blueflag04]

I had a bad dream after seeing that

[@firestar4407]

Probably inspired by the final boss of Macross Scrambled Valkyrie.

Interesting game, same guys behind Prehistoric Isle 2. Interesting how all horizontal or vertical shooters used hybrid between 2D and Pre-rendered 3D during this era. Nobody makes these types of games anymore. Also wtf is with the final boss? That background is really disturbing, is that supposed to be the inside of a vag?

[@PsychoCrusher46]

I believe the story (yes this game have a story) is that Brawlshella (the baby) is a weapon developed by the aliens during the war between the two planets that looks like Earth and Mars (the two planets in the intro), but Brawlshella went berserk as it devoured life on both planets and turned the main characters except Kaoru and Naomi Yamazaki into machines. The final stage that holds Brawlshella actually contains the green substance that was once lifeforms before they were devoured by Brawlshella.
