Synopsis

A very colorful vertical shooter, Eight Forces is not a game for sissies...
After choosing between 4 characters, and their 4 ships, we attack level 1. Oh surprise, 4 credits are lost in the first 30 seconds... The game goes quickly, it's very dry. 2 out of 4 ships are unusable at low level as their fire is weak and easily absorbed by enemies. With one of the other 2 the game is frankly not easy, the opposing fire is very heavy and the armament is won with pain.
Apart from that the game is visually successful, in very strong tones, with a dynamic soundtrack.
A good shmup, with all the ingredients of a hit, but frankly too severe in terms of difficulty, to be reserved for paddle aces =)
