Description

In principle, this is yet another (technically very impressive) horizontally scrolling shoot-'em-up. The interesting twist about the scenario is that it doesn't play in space like the similar game R-Type and most of its clones - instead, the fight between good and evil is underwater.

Through five levels, you have to shoot countless enemies, complete with the obligatory mid-level and end-level bosses. The most innovative part of this game comes after a level when you get to purchase new weapons - instead of simply buying upgrades, you can customize your ship by placing your new weapons anywhere on it.

Trivia

The working title of this game was "Medusa". The (as usual very impressive) TFMX soundtrack by Chris Huelsbeck spread through the Amiga community in the early 90's, usually still under the name "Medusa".
