Grid Seeker: Project Storm Hammer is a side-scrolling shoot 'em
p arcade game developed by Taito. In it, players control one of three different modern
fighter crafts and can collect enemy bullets using shielded guns known as Grids.
Though an otherwise basic vertical SHMUP, Grid Seeker featured a unique style of
attack to players: by using their Grid item, a dual-firing shield similar to that
of the Force from R-Type, players could absorb enemy shots using their Grid.
As the Grid absorbed their shots, a meter would rise and eventually fill the player’s bomb stock.
The bombs varied depending on which weapon the players picked-up. Players could also
change the position of their Grid by holding the fire button and moving up or down the screen.
