Description

The total contrived game story:
The 8-bit arcade sprites are angry, they haven't been paid in years. Worst still, every one is stealing their ideas to re-create games of the 70's and 80's (oh the irony). They want to be paid, and will do anything to get their money! Your mission is to prevent the radical 8-bits from stealing the Galactic bankroll; in return you will be paid in bounty points, the more money your save, the more points you get. If you fail to protect the money, you will lose points; if you loose all of a level's money, the 8-bits will higher a mercenary to help in their cause. Kill the mercenary to reclaim some money and honour.

Battle through 30 levels of arcade disco flashing old school video game action... the road won't be easy, there are no nancy In App Purchasable Upgrades for you, just skill and determination!

I'm not going to apologize for the game being hard, its that type of game, in that type of style. If you wanted to be hand-held on how to play then you've not played the arcade games of the 80's. As it is, I think it rather easy and requires a certain level of skill, skill that is obtained once you've played it a few times. Since everyone is spoiled for choice these days, and expect to complete a game in few hours; when a game comes along and kicks their arse it immediately must be bad or too hard?

I made the bullets what they are, the colours are what they are, lucky you haven't seen the psychedelic levels in the 20's.

Go here http://users9.nofeehost.com/huhugrub if here you want to use the
keyboard since the iframe doesn't look to support it. Otherwise use the mouse.

The only advise I can give is use your shield to gather power-ups and not just as a defense. The power-ups are the key to game progression...

Another thing, the shots are way too difficult to see. Tiny little color changing dots are not easy to pick out on a large color changing screen.
