SD Gundam Psycho Salamander no Kyoui

Step into the cockpit for SD Gundam Psycho Salamander no Kyoui, a fast-paced shooter released in 1991 from Banpresto/Bandai. Players take control of mobile suits from the Super Deformed Gundam universe, navigating scrolling environments and battling waves of enemy robots in a side-scrolling perspective. Two players can team up to tackle the menace of the Psycho Salamander and its forces, utilizing an 8-way joystick for movement and button controls for firing weaponry. The gameplay combines elements of classic shooters with a walking mechanic; while action unfolds on a set path, pilots can strategically reposition their mobile suits to dodge attacks and gain tactical advantages. A diverse roster of iconic mecha from the Gundam franchise appear as both playable characters and adversaries, including familiar models like the Zaku, Gelgoog, and even a Psycho-Gundam. Featuring graphics and sound design characteristic of early 90s arcade games, Psycho Salamander no Kyoui delivers a challenging cooperative experience for fans of the Gundam franchise and shooter enthusiasts alike. The game’s soundtrack is driven by Yamaha YM2151 and OKI6295 chips alongside a Motorola 68000 main CPU.
