Somer Assault is an action game where you control a Slinky spring toy.
+ Includes a ton of power-ups that give you a multitude of ways to attack the levels, and unlimited continues are on offer.
+ Learning how to shave off precious seconds by traversing the stages using the jump button to stick to platforms is great fun.
- Power-ups released from destroyed enemies pass by far too quickly, leaving you with little chance of actually collecting them.
- Reverse controls icon serves no purpose but to annoy players, especially as the stage timer is already rather stingy.
- Countdown timer displays a 60-second warning that momentarily freezes the action and takes you out of your flow.
- Finale boss rush artificially lengthens gameplay, and the music / SFX can resemble the harsh tones of the Atari 7800.
