Choose 1 or 2 simultaneous players

 

You are flying over the city when all of a sudden, it is nuked into dust from above...

 

There is a nice parallax effect here while you fly over the city

 

This boss isn't hard at all, but he's pretty impressive

 

This level is very hard since you'll be flying in outer space and inertia will render the controls of your ship very sluggish!

 

Level 2 accelerates the pace to insane levels! Avoiding to crash in the backgrounds while the speed increases and the tunnels narrow on you isn't that easy...

 

Review - This graphically well done shooter has colorful sprites and backgrounds while gameplay is dynamic and blazing fast.

When reaching the second level, the scrolling gets faster and faster while your ship dives into narrowing tunnels...

Another level sees you farinto outer space struggling against zero gravity controls which have lots of lag. Memorable moments such as these make Aeroblasters stand out.

Bottom line: one of the most frenetic shooters for the PCE, also on Mega Drive....8/10
