Welcome to the forum, Hortinstein

There are lots of Kenta Cho (ABA Games) fans here. If you like Torus Trooper, check out the abstract tube shooter "IS: Internal Section" for the .jp Playstation.

one of these statements is false.

and while not as good a game as IS i'd recommend N20 as compliment to Torus Troopers, its got more of the speed thing going on.

Those screenshots look lovely!

mmm-mmm.

Torus Trooper looks to have Amplitude like perspective? Yes? That game (not a shmuppy shooter) looked great, but I just didn't fancy having to play to some of those tunes that were on it.
