Any shoot'em'up of the late 80s with decent scrolling and Pete Lyon graphics is certainly worth a mention :).

Then again, there's little else to mention. The game is horizontally scrolling, your sprite is rather big, you can only fire 2 bullets simultaneously which can lead to you losing because you didn't aim carefully and the bullets are traveling to the end of the screen. When you clear any of the enemy waves fully, you get a pick up which you can either activate at once or wait till you collect more for a better power up (like Nemesis). The player ship moves a bit slowly so maneuvering in tight spots is impossible - combine that with the 2 bullets only above and you have a game which you can lose very easy if you're not really careful.

Still, way better than the era's offerings.
