Dead Moon

I prefer Deadmau5

Genre: shooter - horizontal

Publisher: TTI

Year: 1992

System: TurboGrafx-16

Gameplay Score: 3

Gameplay Notes:

Movement is crazy fast be can be changed on the pause menu. Weapons fill the screen and power-ups are plentiful. Very large sprite makes you a big target. Taking damage downgrades your weapons meaning you can take three hits. Pretty easy game.

Level Design Score: 4

Level Design Notes:

Enemies move fast and come in large waves so you need those screen filling weapons.

Theme Score: 3

Theme Notes:

Same old near Earth space theme

Art Style Score: 3

Art Style Notes:

Unimpressive. Your ship is kinda dorky looking, like Zero Wing. Backgrounds and enemy sprites are similarly uninspired.

Audio Score: 2

Audio Notes:

Music is uninteresting and barely audible over the loud sound effects.

Overall Score: 63
