Truxton for Genesis


Image: MobyGames

Truxton

Sounds like a Utah kid's name


Genre: shooter - vertical

Publisher: Sega

Year: 1989

System: Genesis


Gameplay Score: 3

Gameplay Notes:

Get powered up and use the heat seeking blue lasers to waste everything in your path. Easy Only three weapons - peashooter spread, forward shot, and homing laser


Level Design Score: 1

Level Design Notes:

Insanely long levels with no breaks after completing a boss. Monotony sets in very quickly as there are only a handful of enemies repeated over and over


Theme Score: 3

Theme Notes:

Generic. Feels like a TG-16 game


Art Style Score: 3

Art Style Notes:

Looks like a TG-16 shooter but with terrible colors. Very simple space background in every level. Sprites are cute but most are just donuts. Background ships you pass over look cool. Has an almost Blazing Lasers look, albeit much darker and with less visual pizzazz.


Audio Score: 1

Audio Notes:

Music restarts ever time you unpause. Simple music with the same sounds. Loud shooting noise.


Overall Score: 46

Review ID: 1353
