Pulstar ACA NEOGEO Gameplay
So this is space shooter with retro graphics. You will have to use onscreen controls to control your plane and shoot down the hostiles. Holding the fire button longer will release different more powerful projectiles.
As we go though the level we will collect power ups that will make our attacks stronger, give us frontal shield that blocks enemy projectiles, adds additional drone that will shoot enemies and so on. Collecting those is vital for the progression, since enemies die faster.
In the end of each level there is a boss, that have its attack patterns and weak points. Try to shoot heads or eyes, most likely you wont go wrong. Boss fights are not as intense as you expect, but you can adjust the difficulty to make the game easier or harder.

Pulstar ACA NEOGEO Verdict
Pulstar ACA NEOGEO is good even in the modern times, even though the game is ported all the way from 1995. Graphics is upgraded, fps is good enough and even boss mechanics feels interesting and up to date. But there are serious drawbacks as well in form of a but sluggish controls and overall outdated game progression feel. On another hand there are no microtransactions, so thats a good thing.
If you liked oldschool space shooters you should give this one a go. It wont have p2w mechanics or ads every 20 seconds like most of the modern games have. So you can actually enjoy the game itself.
