Description

Battle Squadron is a classic arcade style shooter for 1 or 2 players.You take a space ship and fly it over a high tech hostile surface, and then into an organic setting.

You can control the number of 'credits' you have from 1 to 3. You choose how many lives you get. You also get to choose the max number of enemy bullets and their speed.

You get powerups along the way that modify your weapons, and also the "Nova Smart Bomb".

Trivia

The non-playable demo of the Amiga version contains intro sequence that is animated and colorful when compared to same but non-animated and black & white intro sequence in the game. Apparently there wasn't enough disk space for a full quality intro so they cut it down. The same cut-down intro is used in the Genesis version too.
