Batsugun

Batsugun is a sci-fi shoot-'em-up in which you choose from six pilots and three ship types, then fight through enemy encounters described as mini-boss battles at minimum. You can use the Sky Mirage, Dragon's Whisper and Judgement Flash, and gain experience points from defeated enemies to increase your firepower. The soundtrack features space melodies by Yoshitatsu Sakai.

Story

You set out with the Skull Hornets to overthrow the regime of King Renoselva A. Gladebaran VII. The mission is to restore liberty to the people and emerge victorious from the battles and perilous missions ahead.

Enemy projectiles are more numerous, and the mode has four loops, each increasing in difficulty when completed.
