Game Introduction
You have the ability to hold and select between five different weapons at a time. Each weapon can be powered-up a couple of times by collecting a similar option. When you lose a life, you don’t lose all of your weapons, just the one you are using when hit. Don’t set yourself up for a great ending when you complete the game. There really isn’t one.
Game Play
There is a unique power-up that joins both players together as one or brings in the second player on a single player game. When joined, BOTH controllers allow you to move the single, joined character! This can cause problems, however, if you each want to go different directions. During the attract sequences, when the players are joined, you can even move the character around without having to add any credits.
