I read this review based on the quality of the "ring a bell" joke, and was glad to see it through to the end. Good job making a reivew of a simple game interesting.

I played Stinger on NES, which I believe is Twinbee under a different name.

Thanks for reading, and I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the review. I haven't ever played Stinger, unfortunately.

"What if everything you see is more than what you see--the person next to you is a warrior and the space that appears empty is a secret door to another world? What if something appears that shouldn't? You either dismiss it, or you accept that there is much more to the world than you think. Perhaps it really is a doorway, and if you choose to go inside, you'll find many unexpected things." - Shigeru Miyamoto on secret doors to another world2

Stinger's the second Twinbee. It differs from the first and third ones (as well as all the subsequent ones I've played) by virtue of, like Life Force, alternating between horizontal and vertically scrolling stages. All the rest are pure vertical. That was one of those games that deserves to be in my Hall of Fame of games I loved when I was in high school, but struggle to maintain interest in now.
