MH28

Overview

The simplest arcade scroller from Taiwanese manufacturers. But, despite the fact that it is the simplest, it will be quite difficult to pass it even at the very beginning of the game. The game is most likely ported from the console, and it is best to use a joystick to control it.

The plot is simple to the point of ugliness. In deep space, the ship of the Earth fleet was attacked by some forces. The red-haired girl commanded you: "MH28, get ready to fight. Your task is to reach the command post near the Daken Star (達肯星)." At this point, the intro with a plot explanation suddenly ends and the gameplay begins. There is nothing in the menu itself, no items - any click takes you directly into the game, which looks extremely simple.

Your boat is made in the form of a small rounded ribbed "seed" of green color. The scroller moves from top to bottom. There are various types of enemy ships: simple, shooting down or firing aimed missiles, and there are also those moving chaotically and striving to "board" you at the first opportunity. MH-28 has the ability to attack with different types of shots (use the "Caps Lock" key to fire). You can also pick up power-ups flying from above. Any contact with enemy ships results in the loss of MH28. However, you are given as many as 9 MH28 warships - this really speaks of the difficulty of the passage. If you lose any of the "lives", the next one will start from the very beginning of the current stage. The graphics are bright, but do not particularly shine with the finest details. Although the game is considered to be made in Chinese, the gameplay does not have hieroglyphs, not even letters, so it will be quite easy for an unprepared (in terms of language) player to get used to the controls, but it will be very difficult to pass this game creation.
