4Weird to say, but now we're getting to the easy stuff in the list. This is Air Assault, or Fire Barrel as it's known in Japan, the last traditional Shmup made by Irem before they closed their doors the first time in the 90s. And it's easy because it's easy, I didn't need to put in extra effort to see where the safe spots are or where else it can be abused, I just needed to play it and hopefully not make too many mistakes.
But that's not interesting, so I pepper this with a few other Irem games during my travels as I put the many Irem FPGA cores through their paces on the Mister (Most of which are available on Pocket).
Want to get some of these today though? Search for Irem Collection. There'll be five in total, on all consoles.
