Old-school shooter from 2002 with unique claymation look. Very simple models but always interesting to observe. Limited variety of small enemies. Gamepad support is iffy depending on your controller, but weirdly, this was originally made to be controlled with a mouse, and it controls much better that way. I was stuck on level 3 with gamepad but ploughed through with the mouse. I could also pick up the fruits (why fruits?) sometimes popping up from enemy ships more easily and even found it fun instead of frustrating. Great energetic electronic music that sometimes reminded me of the old indie demoscene (think Future Crew). The game is challenging, even at easy, but not bullet hell which was refreshing. One hit by a projectile or vehicle kills you, but you have lives and credits (continues), and can proceed from where you are until game over. Limited continues but thankfully once you beat a level, you can always start from the next one. Be aware that a more expensive remake exists called Platypus Reclayed and that it even includes the original, this game.
