Overview and Gameplay
The Garland TFF-01 fighter attacks the Imperial Earth Army with a weapon built to seize control of enemy Bio-Cyborg machines.
This SNES version is a horizontal scrolling shooter based on the arcade game. The player flies through enemy waves, hazards, and bosses while using normal fire and the Tranquilander, a device that can disable certain Bio-Cyborgs. Flying into a disabled Bio-Cyborg lets the player control that form and use its weapons until it is destroyed.
