Pshycho Soldier

I think this is the one! my memory was blurry as I didn't recall the gfx looking as good as this one (Genesis quaity). that's probably what threw me off when I browse the screenshots. I was trying to go with something that had NES quality gfx. also screenshot didn't show the boy.
and it's actualy an enemy with trentch coat.. not black cape..


I just played it for a few minutes in mame and didn't really know how to play it. Thats probably the same reason I don't remember the exact gameplay from back then.
