Starship Hector

A good typical Hudson Soft-style shmup. The levels consist of horizontally and vertically scrolling levels, nice graphics and music and good playability. Sadly there are no power ups except some items, which replenish you life meter. The game is pretty difficult. More weapon power would be really needed. Thus at least auto-fire is nearly a must-have for this game.
