'Zakato Combat Robo'
[DOS] [SOUTH KOREA] [MAGAZINE] [1995]
"Combat Robo Zakato is a free scrolling shmup with a mecha as a main character. At the start menu, the mecha can be equipped with various weapons and ammunition types, but there's no reason to take anything but the strongest. The game itself is also barely playable, with very choppy scrolling and aggravating enemy behaviour. But most of all, the game just doesn't convey the right feeling for the controls. Zakato can move in 8 directions, but only shoot forward horizontally. The ALT key turns the robot around, which is necessary to hit enemies that attack from behind. An interesting concept but executed less than stellar." ~ @hardcore-gaming-101 ("A History of Korean Gaming - Makkoya")
