Released: 1986
Action Fighter is a top-down driving / shoot-em-up game that was originally released in the Arcade in 1986.
+ Transition when landing or going airborne is good, and the ability to change vehicles is a fun way to add variety.
- Doesn't give you any chance to settle in, as there's no difficulty options and the action is rock-hard from the get-go.
- Enemies are total bullet sponges and the fact they take multiple shots to destroy makes you feel endlessly under-powered.
- Shoot-em-up areas suffer from white bullets that tend to blur into the cloud-based backgrounds for cheap hits.
- End of stage bosses have little imagination and they each involve repeating the same attack pattern ad nauseum.
- Once you've beaten the opening mission there's nothing else to see, as no new ideas / locales are thrown into the mix.
