It doesn't matter whether you like shmups; buy this if you like gaming.. If you like retro-style games or shoot 'em ups in general, this is a must buy. The free original was great, but 2 player co-op, added levels and other improvements make it well worth the price.The old games we remember -- many of them actually kind of suck. That's why Cursed Castle EX and Super Hydorah are so great. They have a nostalgic look to them (the CRT effects are good too) but play better and have more depth than the actual games of old.One thing the old games excelled at was pixel art. They did amazing things with limited resolutions and palettes. Most new "retro" games try but fall far short of the quality of the classics. But this game looks fantastic, on the same level as the best arcade and console games of the 80s and 90s.I have to add this is PERFECT for an arcade cabinet install. First, it's native resolution appears to be a 320x180. ArcadeVGA supports 321x200 resolution, so it should run in "exact" mode (pixel perfect) with neglibible letterboxing on a 4:3 display. Second, it supports two players using one keyboard. Which means you can easily configure controls for both players using an I-PAC type USB keyboard encoding device.. Got this same day as Underworld Ascendant. Guess which one is more fun... The original Hydorah is free. Go play it. It rocks.This game is like that game, except Super. Super as in expanded upon and re-balanced in every way you could probably ever want. Shields are just as available as Turbos and Powers, there's more indication when those and the level-up pieces are about to change, the regular bullets are more visible, your controls are better, etc. There are more levels, more weapons, and many changes made to adapt to this. Additionally, there are some changes made to the old levels and even a few bosses just because they could and should be made. If you like Hydorah but don't own this game, you are cheating yourself.And if the final boss of that version lowers your opinion of the game, then just... don't worry. This version fixes it.*Doesn't count as spoilers because I didn't tell you anything about the actual boss*. If you have enjoyed shoot'em ups on a coin-op arcade machine. BUY IT!It's awesome.And the music... Oh, the music... Love it.. There's a reason we left Gradius behind. It's a really faithful remake and is beautiful and crisp and etc. But why did you have to remake a \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665 game?. If you love Gradius then your going to want to own this game.Awesome sound track and great replay value, as you can play the game back through on a different route in places.There's not to much to say about this game but go and buy it, as it pays homage to Gradius as I mentioned.And for the price it's a bargain, and to be honest speaking for myself I would of payed £12 for this awsome shoot em up!.😊. A love message to the 80's space shooter games. If you had the chance to enjoy some of the r-type, gradius, darius, thuderforce, etc. games, this is a mandatory buy. If not, this is a mandatory buy, as it compiles a lot of the best from those. Man, this is Hydorah even better and with 2 players! Also we owe this to Locomalito. If you are intrested enough in the genere to be reading this, it's 100% sure you are going to have a ton of fun with this game.Totally recommended.. Short levels, a forgettable soundtrack, and a thoroughly inconsistent difficulty curve keep this otherwise competant shoot-em-up from reaching the same heights of the games it clearly pays tribute towards.
