Gley Lancer (Mega Drive/Genesis): Stick to it and Believe in Your Power! Beyond The Scanlines #113
52It's no surprise to say that I like a good shmup. Specifically those from the 8 & 16-bit eras before the time where surviving over the top bullet patterns became the norm.
What's even more exciting is sitting down with something a little more special - specifically something that never saw release in your region back in the day, in this case being NCS's Advanced Busterhawk Gley Lancer, originally released in 1992, but reissued (and localised) by Retro-Bit in 2023!
