Juno First 1983 Mugs
Main Tag:
Description: Developed and released in 1983, Juno First is a fixed shooter arcade game with a slightly tilted perspective, similar to 1980's Radar Scope. The game presents a set number of enemies per level, but they do not make a gallery formation like similar space themed fixed shooters. Instead, the player's ship can move forward and backward (in addition to left and right) to hunt enemies in an orientation that is vertical, but has some horizon-oriented tilt. This style of gameplay would be re-used in a later shooter, called Axelay. The player destroys waves of enemies to finish levels. Starting formations vary from stage to stage. In addition, the player can pick up a humanoid, upon which the screen will have a red tint.
