I picked this up for $8 used at Gamestop. What a friggin' deal. This game is terribly short but it's a blast. By far the best use of scaling 2d sprites for the GBA and makes me yearn for GBA ports of Thunderblade and Afterburner. At first it seems difficult but once you get used to it and memorize a few patterns (and a few really poor boss AIs) you will easily defeat it. A worthy successor to Gunstar.
