Image Fight II
Vertical R-Type, part deuxGenre: shooter - vertical
Publisher: Irem
Year: 1992
System: PCE CD
Gameplay Score: 4
Gameplay Notes:
Straight sequel to the first game, with almost not change in gameplay. Same powerup system, options, and speed control. Just more levels. The bosses can be brutal.
Level Design Score: 3
Level Design Notes:
Like the first game, this plays like a vertical R-Type, with interesting moments throughout. However, there are quite a few spots where nothing is on screen. Also, the stages are incredibly short. Still above average, but I think I like the first game's stages a bit more.
Theme Score: 5
Theme Notes:
Great anime cutscenes between stages. The opening text crawl is all in English, but of course the voice acting is in Japanese. Still, great vibe!
Art Style Score: 4
Art Style Notes:
Great pixel art, even if the backgrounds are a tad boring. More of the same from the first game.
Audio Score: 4
Audio Notes:
Awesome CD-quality music. The sound effects initially bugged me but I forgot about it so it's not a distraction.
Overall Score: 76
