Psycho Soldier

             

              Manufacturer: SNK
              Year: 1986

Descpription: This side-scroller features Athena, the character who first
appeared in a game called "Athena" and also later in the Neo-Geo "King of Fighters"
series. This was the first game to use a fully digitized, full-length vocal sountrack.

You can collect orbs that can be fired like a bazooka. They rotate around you, blocking
minor projectiles. You can also grab power-ups to increase your shot power and range.

At full power, a certain artifact changes Athena into a fire-breathing phoenix.

The game is a multi-level side scroller, and you can jump between
levels to attack or avoid enemies and grab power-ups.
