(08/30) Bomber Raid

This is the Master System version, which was the only console that had it.

A vertically scrolling shooter with a World War II theme. It's got 5 levels and at the end of each you're given bonus points depending on the percentage of enemies you defeated. The power ups include speed ups, more powerful shots and up to two smaller planes flying alongside you to add more fire power, with different directional options depending on the number indicated on the icon you collected(I recommend 2 for shooting forward). The A button is for normal shots and B is for a strong bomb attack.

When flying over certain terrains, bullets can be difficult to see so I recommend playing this on the big screen. There's no turbo fire option here either so that's another reason to go for it as the small screen moves around while pressing the button rapidly.

There's a level select cheat but since it requires a second controller it can't be done here unfortunately.
