ust when I was beginning to feel that the left-to-right scrolling R-Type format had been done to death, Zynaps comes along and proves me completely and utterly wrong by proving that there is still life in the age-old genre. Hewson’s latest is one of the most colourful and certainly one of the most enjoyable shoot ‘em ups yet to appear.

Zzap!

You've had a baaaaad day. Mind you, when you joined the Ruphspace troopers you weren't led to expect the easy missions. Lots of money and adoring women – yes, but not the easy missions. Blowing up that alien space station was about the non-easiest mission so far and if the rest of your squad weren't sizzling heaps of charred meat they would no doubt agree.
