After Burst (アフターバースト) is a Japan-exclusive action video game released for the Game Boy in 1990.[3]
Gameplay
Players must control a combat robot with the ultimate goal of destroying the enemy orb. Each level only has one screen to blast hostile robots, solve challenging platforms, and manipulate a series of short puzzles.[4]
There are 30 stages with a boss battle on every tenth stage.[5] A weapon is available; its gunfire can be altered by changing the angle of the gun. The distance of the shot can also be changed by holding down the button for extended periods of time. A two-player duel mode has been added, allowing players to fight either another player or the computer.[4]
This game employs a third-person perspective with a side-view.[4][6]
