The best dynamism and the best game balance are pursued!!!  GUARDACE, the super weapon who keeps the order of the universe.  To finish the menacing super weapon off, powerful enemies are gathering.  Destroy them all, revive completely!!!  Combined the freedom of 360°shooter, intensive attacks of enemies and the high-performance of GUARDACE!!!  These intensive attacks of enemies are rare also in all shooters.  And to match them, GUARDACE's weapons and deffences are various and hyper-performance.  Truely overwhelming battle experience!!!  To balance between the hyper weapons, the game balances are adjusted thoroughgoingly.  Intense battles will be unfolded, needed to change various weapons timely.  Menacing weapons of GUARDACE  - Shatter Shell  - Plasma Beam  - Meteor Impact  - Antimatter Spiral Wave  - Remz  - Antimatter Destruction  - Gravity Shield  To use various super weapons equally, the structures of the stages were worked out thoroughly.  If you try to stop using one of them, you'll find that it's so hard to clear a stage.  Moreover, it's a 2D view, though actually a 3D calculation, so collision detection is so accurate.  Explosion happens at a very point where a shot hits.  Say hello to the people of the Mascot Planet!!!  What is the true enemy GUARDACE is targetting???
