Phalanx

Phalanx Description

It's the year 2269. Delia, a planet with a population of less than 18 million in the outer frontier arm of the Andromeda Galaxy, provides the natural resource, Terra. Many minerals and special gases are found only here. But for two weeks, communications with Delia are lost. Judging from the circumstances, it is hard to imagine a rebellion going on. Also, Delia has a powerful defence system against outside enemies. But still, there is no response from the planet. The General Headquarters decides that Delia needs to be investigated immediately. Phalanx is specially designed to push gamers to the very limit of their playing skills. Even if you don't have genetically augmented reflexes (not many of us do, to be truthful) you can still save the human race by adjusting the game difficulty to a level that best suits your ability. Phalanx is a nifty, side-scrolling arcade-style action shooter, which pushes the GBA hardware to its ultimate limit. Phalanx is not a typical action arcade shooter. Many contemporary arcade-style games are dumbed-down, offering a minimal number of challenges and limited replay value. Phalanx has a great pedigree, as the success of the SNES version from 1992 demonstrates. You can also look to the Amiga and Commodore versions for fine gameplay too. Kemco have done gamers right in resurrecting this classic for the GBA, as it has lost none of its appeal.
