Fun fact: This game is designed by Tomo Furukawa who was also the vocalist of the popular visual kei band Guniw Tools (which is a romanization of the Japanese words for "Flimsy Tools"), the band was art rock with a very interesting concept and he made this game little before Guniw was founded in 91. By the way, Tomo is also a painter and visual artist.
I think that scrolling could be better in a machine that have hardware support for it. And an optimized flickering routine would have avoided the bullets' mistake... my upcoming msx1 game is better than this msx2 game (I hope it will be my entry for MSXDev'20)
True. There are better MSX shooters out there. At least Hudson Soft managed to include all 19 different ship forms to this port (they did change the way how to get one of them, because they couldn't make a smaller version of the boss enemy flying in the background). The most annoying thing about this port is that if there are too many bullets on the screen, some of them turns invisible but can still hit things.

현도형님 다 이해합니다...
Good music
Think an MSX 2+/Turbo R would handle a remake of Super Real Darwin?
単色スプライトはちょっと・・
ＭＳＸ２で単色スプライトはさすがに萎えるよな。

MSX用ソフトをMSX2で動かしてるだけだよねえ？
これは本当にMSX2のゲームだ。MSX2のハードならもっとうまくやれる。これは素晴らしい移植ではない。
Msx-2 port ? Bad attempt . I have been better Msx-1 games....
