more games I've been playing:

* City Connection (USA)
FUCK that stupid cat
I used to love this game, and I still kind of do, but it's very choppy with its scrolling and occasionally just outright unfair
still fun

* Cosmic Epsilon (Japan)
a space harrier clone with a cool 3D textured floor effect but aiming feels terrible since they moved where you fire from to be above your head to try and get around the fact that you would block your target when lined up with it
I want to keep giving this a shot because it looks so cool

* Geimos (Japan)
a 3D rail shooter with a terrible sense of whether you're aiming the right way
it has 2 different camera modes and I think mode A is the better one
it's kinda fun, but it's not great

* Choujikuu Yousai - Macross (Japan)
side-scrolling shooter where you can transform between the 3 modes of your valkyrie (all of them feel unsuited for the task at hand)
played this on a famiclone years ago
it's not good
it's really bad
it also loops in a way that doesn't feel like a classic infinite game, it just feels unfinished, even if it adds stuff each stage
