Axelay - A Konami Troll

In 1992 Konami released the amazing tour de force called Axelay... It was a show case of what the Super  Famicom could do. Mode 7 things, sprite scaling and coffee making. Ok the sfc couldn't make coffee but if it could it would be swishy and slightly blocky.

Anyhow Axelay had awesome vertical levels and amazing horizontal levels, it was as if someone fed Salamander a big pile of 16 bit steroids. The music was classic Konami, it stayed in your head like the earwig things from The Wrath Of Khan. 

Axelay only had one problem, when you finish it you get a cheery "see you in Axelay 2!" 

Which of course is Konami trolling us. Forever
