Gradius wɔ agodie abarimaa no so? Yeah, nokwarem no ɛyɛ port a ɛyɛ den a ɛwɔ arcade classic no mu —ɛwom sɛ ɛda adi sɛ wɔatew so ama saa green screen ketewaa no de.

Power-up system no nyinaa wɔ ha: ahoɔhare kɔ soro, laser, options (saa orbs kakraa bi a ɛsensɛn nsu so a ɛsuasua wo shots no). Nanso, mess up the order, na woakɔ so ayɛ upgrade a mfaso nni so kosi sɛ capsule a edi hɔ no bɛtɔ. Konami atirimɔdensɛm a wɔtaa yɛ no.
