Lua error in Module:Lang/utilities at line 332: attempt to call field '_transl' (a nil value). is a 1987 scrolling shooter video game developed and published by Nichibutsu for arcades. It is a spinoff of the Cresta Series, which includes Moon Cresta, Terra Cresta and Sol Cresta. It was initially only released in Japan.[1] Hamster Corporation acquired the game's rights alongside Nichibutsu's intellectual property, releasing the game as part of their Arcade Archives series for the PlayStation 4 in 2016 and Nintendo Switch in 2019.[2][3]
Gameplay
The player controls a spaceship as they destroy alien enemies on a planet. Ever level starts on the surface, which is a vertically scrolling level where aliens and buildings can be destroyed for points.[4] After a boss enemy is defeated, players access caverns where enemies are more widespread, while also having to avoid colliding with obstacles. Laser, bomb and "speed" power-ups are available in limited supply.[2][5]
Development
The game's development was led by Shigeki Fujiwara, co-creator of the Bomberman series, as his last project before leaving Nichibutsu for Hudson Soft. He envisioned a mix of MagMax's side-scrolling perspective and the vertically scrolling gameplay of Terra Cresta, leading to an ambitious mix of levels of both perspectives.[4]
