Not a bad game. I\'m not too good at it though, but it can hold my attention. I usually die from gazing at the enemy, and not paying enough attention to the enemy fire bombarding my ship.

The unlocking of music was a unique idea, and adds value to the game. I have a few favorites that I like (Castlevania / Ghouls) that seem to go well with the game. Still need to unlock the others.

The troll, however, seems to not be part of the game --- the shop keeper might as well be an elf, pigeon, etc. I also guess that the enemy ships\' offset is a sine wave, although this isn\'t too apparent.

Overall, it gets fairly repetative, and is more a clone of the original. (The title sound effect caused me to jump out of my seat as well.) The graphics aren\'t complicated (in part to parody the original, I guess), but, while the enemies are quite pixelated, you are finely drawn. Go figure. The choice of using control for fire (over space bar, which rotates music) seemed odd to me as a player.

Scores: Overall 3 Artistical 3 Technical 3 Genre 4
