18 May 2009Storm Assault is a horizontal shooter created by the Storm Project development team as a tribute to Konami’s early Gradius series. Everything from the classic power meter, upgrade capsules, and boss ships with specific weak points have been transferred and updated with slight changes for this loose remake.
There are two stages to play in version 0.2 and upwards. The second level features battles with Moai statues, which was originally never included in earlier releases. Joystick and gamepads are automatically detected, but you can use the keyboard to control your ship as well. (stage one gameplay video in the extended)
