“Players control the extraordinary firepower of their Gunhed Star Fighter to take on the Dark Squadron that has begun its invasion of Earth. Collect power-ups to increase your ship’s battle strength so it can cut through enemies and defeat the bosses in all 9 areas. Of course, as part of the ‘Soldier’ series, the game contains a good combination of fast-paced speed with catchy, drum-propelled background music, coupled with the Field Thunder that can be used to destroy enemies in one fell swoop for the ultimate sense of satisfaction!”

Blazing Lazers will be priced at $5.99.

NORMAL GAME is made up of eight different stages, and in each stage (except Stage 7) a boss awaits you at the end.
The special attack squad, led by the Mother Brain, has launched an all-out invasion on Earth. Take your small-scale fighter, the Neo Caesar, with its arsenal of four regular weapons and two special weapons, and send them back where they belong!”
