ALIENS BLAST YOU FROM ALL DIRECTIONS!
HELLFIRE is Toaplan's first side-scrolling shooter! This PC port of the celebrated 1989 arcade title features online leaderboards, arcade-accurate emulation, quick saves, and more. You'll face a blood-boiling trial of complex choices, blazing graphics, and aliens ambushing from every angle. Firepower alone won't cut it; you must use your weapons strategically and with great prowess!
"Desperate to regain the six planets stolen by the sinister Guild Empire, the kindhearted Captain Lancer of the rebelling forces unleashes a superheated space battleship: HELLFIRE! Its blinding firepower marks the beginning of an all-out war between good and evil."
ORIGINAL GAME FEATURES:
- Choose Fire Direction: Rotate through eight shooting directions of four mighty weapons and unleash a whirlwind of hell. A strategic mindset is required, but once you master this system, you'll wonder how you lived without it.
- Co-op Mode: Play alone or with a friend!
- Wildly creative graphics: Explore a world of stunning vistas, mighty machines, and deadly enemies. If you can't handle the heat, at least you'll go down in style…
- The rock-heavy soundtrack by Tatsuya Uemura showed a different side of Toaplan in the 80s, and it’s still headbang-inducing today.
