I recently came across this completely obscure arcade game released by some completely oscure company (who on earth are Metro??) and it plays like the most generic possible raiden clone imaginable.
So does anyone here know about this game? Did this game serve any purpose apart from being dug up 13 years after its release by people like me questioning how the game could be so damn obscure? What on earth is going on here?? I need to lie down.
Whats the deal with Sky Alert??

It's certainly "Raiden-esque" but I wouldn't label it a Raiden clone. It has enough of its own identity to stand on it's own. Not that it's a particularly engaging shmup, because it's not, but it's no clone.
You wanna talk about clones? Try Sand Scorpion by Face (crappy clone), or Mad Shark by Allumer (decent).
