    -potato movement, enemy projectiles blend into background and fast hard to reaction all u do only move forward dont stop.

    -very bad bosses fight.

    -only good music and 90s graphic.

    -buy instead blazing chrome or huntdown or cuphead or contra series or hard corps series.

    A technically spectacular run 'n gun that lacks options and gameplay mechanics. The best: the final boss battles and the use of the grapple.

    Steel Assault is one of the cases that I would compare to a good cup of coffee. Enjoyable while it lasts, but something you'll probably forget after a few days. The wide gap between difficulties and the lack of variety in its action set pieces diminish its replayability and lasting appeal.

    Those with a pocket full of quarters and a fervent love for the classics will be right at home with the side-scrolling action of Steel Assault. It might be a bit on the short side, but it encourages absolute mastery - just mind the gap.
