How To Play

Raiden DX (UK) is a top-down shooter where you control a hero called Raiden, moving him through various levels in mechs and/or aircraft. The controls are simplistic. With all the controls on the joystick, move Raiden around; meanwhile, the buttons shoot, jump, and activate special attacks. Power-ups and weapon upgrades are scattered about to better Raiden's weapons and abilities. The more you advance, the more difficult it gets, with enemy hordes growing larger and more intricate in level design. The aim is to wipe out the aliens and restore humanity.
