a normal shot (spray of bullets), reflect (reflects enemy bullets and damages enemy ships in the field), and force bomb (nullifies all on-screen bullets). Defeated ships sometimes drop power-ups. Each ship starts out with two bombs and up to seven can be collected. Each bomb left in reserve after any boss fight gives the player a bonus. Players can increase their score multiplier by collecting medals dropped by defeated ships. Player "rank" is determined by score at the end of each level. The game adjusts the difficulty accordingly. Release In February 2021, it was included as part of pack 3 in the Capcom Arcade Stadium compilation for Nintendo Switch. Reception The Dreamcast version received "mixed" reviews according to the review aggregation website GameRankings. Game Informer gave the game a favorable review, and Electronic Gaming Monthly gave it a mixed review, both while the game was still in development. Jim Preston of NextGen said that the game "should be packaged with bottles of both Visine and Excedrin." In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of 28 out of 40. Also in Japan, Game Machine listed the arcade version in their May 1, 1999 issue as the tenth most-successful arcade game of the month.
