Super Darius II
Zoom and enhanceGenre: shooter - horizontal
Publisher: NEC
Year: 1993
System: PCE CD
Gameplay Score: 3
Gameplay Notes:
Has an auto fire capability and other configuration including difficulty levels, lives and continues. Movement is fast and fluid. Powerups are plentiful although it takes a long time to fully power up. The only complaint is your ginormous hitbox. Seriously, it's bigger than Air Zonk.
Level Design Score: 4
Level Design Notes:
I love the branching paths, Out Run style. Makes for some replayability.
Theme Score: 4
Theme Notes:
Darius! The between stage cinematic entrance is cool the first time and a little weird from there on out.
Art Style Score: 3
Art Style Notes:
The camera is zoomed way in. This feels weird for a Darius game.
Audio Score: 4
Audio Notes:
Rocking soundtrack. I think the devs played Lords of Thunder and wanted to match its energy. They almost succeeded. The only drawback are the subpar sound effects.
Overall Score: 68
