All the chatter about it in this thread makes me want to pick up Axelay.

I remember it being given away/advertised all the time on Nickelodeon game shows, so I assumed, back in the day, that it must not be very good.

Darius Twin was one me and my brother played a lot.

This thread reminded me... I just picked up Space Megaforce today, I need to go down and play it.  I fully expect the stages to be far too long, but I bet I'll still probably enjoy it.

Space Megaforce is Compile's worst game. You've been warned.

And yeah, the stages are way too long, except for one that is inexplicably short.

ROLF!!

Also, none of the ads I ever saw had screenshots. That skepticism payed off when it came to buying a Jaguar.

So never seen any screenshots in a magazine, on a packshot, by a friend, GF.. somewhere else? Did you eventually lived behind the moon at that time?

I guess Iowa is kinda like the moon - featureless and almost entirely white. :p

I think I remember owning Space Megaforce back bitd. I remember not liking it all that well, which clashes with all the love it gets.

It's missing the Compile "magic."

It has the compile magic, at least it is technically one of the most impressing piece of software on the system, which speaks for compile work. but uberlong and halfway dull levels kills a lot of that magic.

If they didn't had implemented those annyoing bonus stages (or just available as a separate omake game on the cart) and the general levels would have been cut back to 1/3 of their initially length, the game would have been quite very good.

It reminds me a lot of Blazing Lasers.

I like it, though not as much as BL.
