Trying to remember the name of a vertical shump

Post by Guardians Knight »

The game starts with letters in the middle of the screen which you can shoot to make them spin and disappear eventually, think there might have even been a sequel.

Anyone shed some light on my bad memory please?

I never liked that feature. Too meta.
