Metro - Gunmaster

So, I had my eye on this rare PCB for some time and decided to put a little time in on it this weekend to see if it warranted a purchase. It's fun and has quite a variety of moves for a boss-rush style platformer, but I just wasn't feeling it.

Has anyone played this and found it to be great? Am I missing something? I did notice that when you credit feed to the end, you see the soul of the final boss revive some other baddy, which you clearly don't get to face unless you rock this game, which I didn't. The sad part is that the game wasn't fun enough to warrant even using save-states to get to the end on a single credit.

I;ve never seen this before. The sprite artist deserves some HUGE pay. Very pretty looking sprites.
Some of the best shmups don't actually end in a vowel.
No, this game is not Space Invaders.

I've played this before. I remember that it indeed was quite boring. The art isn't really that great either, just a lot of color.
