Blazing Star: A Neo Geo Shooting Experience
Blazing Star is a scrolling shooter game designed for the Neo Geo home system, serving as a sequel to the well-received Pulstar. The game features a blend of pseudo-3D prerendered sprites and engaging anime cutscenes, enhancing the visual experience. With a ROM size of 346 Mb, it offers players dynamic gameplay complemented by unique voice samples and captions, adding to the overall atmosphere of the game.
Critics have noted that while Blazing Star introduces innovative graphics and gameplay mechanics, some players feel it lacks the challenge presented in its predecessor, Pulstar. The transition to prerendered sprites has also sparked debate among fans who prefer the classic 2D aesthetic. Despite this, Blazing Star remains a notable title in the action game category, appealing to both old fans and newcomers of the shooter genre.
