Nah, I kinda regret getting it. i played for 6 minutes, lost all of my lives because of the warped perspective, no control instructions (or sensical storyline), eventually died and would have had to start over from the beginning. no thank you. Save your money for better games!

One of my favorite childhood shooter games. Had it as a kid back in the rom/emulator days, then I bought a copy for the GBA, now as an adult, bought it again for PC. Graphics were amazing then, even hold up well to retro-style graphics today. Game is difficult now as it was back then, but its got a lot of replayability and a lot of fun. The soundtrack is also as awesome as I remember it.

I got this game in the very early 2000s at KB games (remember that?) in the under $5.00 bin with my dad. It was a fun and simple game and definitely killed time playing this.

as an original GBA owner of this game, its nice to see this game preserved in some capacity for the modern day . i will mention a few reviews here bring up the emulator chugging hard when too much is happening , but this is mostly playable; and gives newer gens an idea of what we grew up with . its not perfect but i want more people to try this and hopefully push fore a modern remake of this game. Majesco , please remake this game! it would be so cool for it to be truly 3D, and not sprite 3D

Iridion 3D is an extremely simple, but a great and efficient shoot'em up! Some stage levels can be cheesed by simply staying on the lowest part of the screen holding the shooting button and only dodging incoming debris horizontally. Unlike in many other shmups, shooting every single enemy is not viable, you're meant to dodge the majority of obstacles and reach the end in one piece instead. Bosses do require some level of skill and logical thinking on how to defeat and dodge the bullet hell that ensues. In my opinion, it's the coolest part of this game! Since I was trying to complete the game without cheating, I wrote down the password codes on a sheet of paper. At Stage 7, I lost all my lives and had to input the level code to go back to where I was! I never thought I would unironically use this feature on a retro game, but here we are. I have to say, the fire dragons coming out of the lava looked pretty cool in this level. The code I had to input was Q5KDVBZSP.
