Twin Cobra

Interesting shmup but far from the toaplan best and a moderate recommendation for shmups lovers. The game shows it´s age. It is a really simple and basic shmup, but probably you won´t find much better in the genre than this if you aprecciate those charactheristics. the bullet patterns are basic. The enemyes aims at you few, but very fast bullets with big precision. The enemy variety is small and the game gets a bit repetitive and could have been more compact. There are 2 versions of the game (usa and japanese). i strongly recommend usa version has it is more easy because when you die you continue in the same place instead goig back to a chekcpoint. The difficulty is arcade level, as these games were made to steal quarters. There are 2 buttons a bomb and a shoot. there are powerups for speed and for a few different types of shoot. The visual clarity is ok but i wished that the bullets blended more with some of the backgrounds. Now let´s talk about the port. there were problems in the beggining but most were patched. Bitwave add acessibility options that you won´t find in emulation and add quality for this game. You can change the hitbox to small, have a autofire button. i do wished to have a option change bullet colors for better visibility. The price is good considering the quality work of bitwave.

Before Raiden... There's Twin Cobra!!!

It is another unfair pay to win arcade coin muncher. But this is a great release. It offers rewind notquick saves and saving to file. There are sufficient display options. There are no baked-in envelopes and there's screen rotation, allowing you to properly play it on your 3//4 vertical screen. It's a vertical scroll shooter game, this time about a choppa. There are four options for the main gun, some are way better than others. The secondary fire is bombs that are very slow to detonate and have a small radius. So instead of a defencive option to wipe the bullets from the screen it's somewhat usable only for offence. If you spend too much time during a boss fight avoiding being killed instead of attacking, the screen goes forward allowing you to skip the fight. And if you kill a boss in overtime it won't count it for an achievement. The game has the same great enemy design as in Hishōzame, with familiar set-pieces and enemies. The game is pretty, but noisy, you can't see enemy's bullets on many of the lighter terrains. Enemy's kamikaze attacks are kinda dumb in this genre, especially in realistic settings such as this. It's like fighting hamas — they don't care if they die as long as you don't survive. And in this game the enemies have insane numerical advantage. It could be a cool mechanic for scroll shooter games, if you could play chicken with the enemy, who doesn't really want to die.

Fantastic classic arcade shooter! If you're a fan of this style of game you'll like it for sure.

YES
