The game is a horizontal shooter, where the player controls a ship with a rotating weapon. This rotating weapon ensures that the ship does not require complex navigation to destroy enemy objects in inconvenient spots, while still needing to avoid enemy projectiles; this makes the game resemble more of a bullet hell game than most side-scrolling shooters from Capcom.
