A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
S. Prysm Destroyer is a side-scrolling 2.5D run’n gun shooter published by EastAsiaSoft for under ten bucks. While the retro gameplay is appreciated, the incredibly steep difficulty is not. This action shooter reminds me of Hard Corps Uprising, an often forgotten and more methodical Contra clone published by Konami. Meaning, the action isn’t a crazy […]

Taking inspiration from Mighty Bomb Jack, Go East has […]
