Glacier

Overview

This is the version 1.04 and it is a little buggish, some bullets sometimes get stuck. I don't know if a newer version exist. It also exists an "otameshi" version (otameshi means trial)

There are 5 scenarios and each scenario has 2 stages with the exception of scenario n.2 that has 3 stages. So there are 11 stages in total.

This shoot'em up has some RPG elements because you can buy weapons and speed with points you get destroying enemies.

I've never liked rpg elements in shoot'em ups.

GAMEPLAY

The game has a strange mechanics. With one button you shoot, with the other one you can activate a shield also capable of doing great damage to enemies. Both shooting and shield deplete a white energy bar at the bottom of the screen. When the white bar is completely empty you can call a support aircraft with space bar spending some points.
