Hamster Co. added Namco‘s arcade title Dangerous Seed yesterday to its ongoing Arcade Archives series.
Originally released for arcades in 1989, Dangerous Seed is a vertically-scrolling shooter. Across its multiple visually surreal levels, players pilot the “Moon Diver” fighter. The fighter consists of three ships that you can combine and transform into a powerful configuration. Across its unique levels, you’ll also need to shoot your way through a myriad of bizarre alien enemies.
While the game primarily focuses on single-player gameplay, it also features an alternating turn two-player mode. Although this title may not be as well known as other Namco classics, its unique visuals and cool music makes it a title worth playing.
