Trying to find out the name of a game
#391054 - 06/14/21 10:26 AM


Hi all,

First post here. I remember playing an arcade side-shooter in the '80s where the player was represented by a ship which could warp above or below ground with the below ground section having a much higher-tech look to it than the surface. Essentially, it was like playing two side-shooters at once.

As the player progressed, the ship could acquire expansions which eventually transformed it into a robot-looking machine.

The game had a truly bangin' soundtrack and due to its unusual play-style I'd love to be able to play it again, but of course, I can't remember its name.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.



Cheers,
Jack

You can also try asking in tipOfMyJoystick on Reddit.
