The greatest feature are the keyboard and mouse controls, you can instantly zoom from one side of the screen to the other and shield yourself to destroy enemy ships or shoot them. That's what distinguishes this game from old 'Shoot 'em Ups'. It frees yourself and together with the ability to permanently switch weapons allows for unbridled acrobatics. That's what it's about. The music could be a bit better, more...
