Wing Force is an cancelled shmup by Atlus that had a prototype released in 1993, which was later discovered by someone who was able to find the last PCB of the game to dump it and make the game playable on MAME. The dumped rom appears to be a prototype version. The game`s prototype has 5 stages in 2 loops.

Gameplay Overview

Similar to Raiden, the player can fire the main shot and a bomb, which has an adjustable distance. When picking up weapon variant items, the player is granted an armor that can take one hit. If the player is hit armorless, a life will be lost.

Controls


  • A: Shot
  • B: Bomb

Scoring


Scoring consists of destroying enemies and collecting medals. After clearing a stage, the collected medals will create a bonus and add it to the player`s score.
