Feedback

About

Feedback is a side-scrolling shooter where you pilot a mechanical suit called Arouza through space and planetary environments. You battle waves of enemies while managing limited missiles and a power-up system that upgrades your ship’s abilities. The game alternates between aerial combat and ground-running sections, with bosses appearing at stage ends. Progression relies on timing upgrades carefully since you have only one life and a depletable power meter to survive. The game’s design feels like a spiritual cousin to other 80s-era shooters though it carved its own niche. With its 1988 release on the MSX2 platform it remains a cult favorite among retro gaming circles. Players appreciate its tight controls and escalating difficulty curve even if the lack of checkpoints adds tension. A small but vocal community keeps it alive through speedruns and preservation efforts.
