Flying Hero: Bugyuru no Daibouken

The other cute-em-up


Genre: shooter - vertical

Publisher: SOFEL

Year: 1992

System: SFC


Gameplay Score: 4

Gameplay Notes:

Simple yet engaging mechanics. Three weapons (normal, cloud cluster shot, and a yo-yo shield-like projectile. Each can be upgraded twice. Taking a hit reduces this by one and you die if hit while on level one. Easy difficulty. Three speed levels. Bombs although they don't do much.


Level Design Score: 4

Level Design Notes:

Fun boss battles. Enemies jump out of the background, like monkeys jumping from a jungle or fish out of the ocean. Lots of variety in enemy waves. Never a full moment.


Theme Score: 5

Theme Notes:

Colorful, carrying animal kingdom vibe. Most enemies are straight up animals. So cute. Your character looks like Kirby with wings.


Art Style Score: 4

Art Style Notes:

Adorable. Bright and colorful. Every enemy is loaded with animations as they appear, move, and die. The screen is constantly filled with visual treats.


Audio Score: 4

Audio Notes:

Lovely music with a steel drum sound to it. The sound effects are perfect and never get on your nerves.


Overall Score: 81

Review ID: 1634
