Title
Hey, this is fun: It's an early aerial shooter, but one where you also need to manage between fueling up from tanks and proceeding faster through the levels. Even though it's an action shooter, it often demands a great deal of patience, as you will need it when you traverse the narrow canyons and remove patrolling helicopters one by one.

Title
Shoot em up classic
Control an airplane and move throughout a river shooting other planes and boats. Obviously crude due to its age, but nonetheless controls pretty well and its fun chasing that high score. Its a hard game, 3 lives with 1 shot or contact being enough to kill you. There are much better games in the genre nowadays, but its simplicity is somewhat charming. Had a decent time with this on.
