I tried playing Divine Sealing last night and could only get to level 3.  That game is tough because if the random movement of the enemies and the distracting backgrounds that hide enemy bullets.

Level 1 of Gleylancer and the "body" level of Wings of War/Gynoug gave me a hard time separating the bullets from the background too.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

Both of those games are much easier to separate the bullets from the backgrounds.

Divine Sealing is just a terrible game in every aspect.  The powerup system is about as broken as it gets. I love the background transition on stage 3, where the background just changes to something completely different out of the blue.  A few of the bosses don't even move.  I've beaten it, but Stage 4 is pure 100% memorization as enemies will come from behind you in large waves with no warning at all.  Such a train wreck of a game.  I'm never selling my copy. :)

Super Fantasy Zone is a freaking work of art and the European version is cheap and runs the same as the Japanese version on genesis systems. :)

But the Japanese cartridge looks cooler.  And the box in tiny and cute.  :)

Phelios is a very poor port of the arcade game.

MD Phelios is Ok until you see the arcade version.  I really need to buy the pcb one of these
days, it destroys the MD version in every aspect.

Well yeah but we were talking about SMS/Gen shooties.   I really liked it for the Genesis.

Does Sega CD count too?  Sol Feace and Android Assault?  Silpheed?

The arcade was a pretty boring game, too.  Both games played the same, the arcade only had more scaling and rotation.  I think that NAMCOT thought that gamers would rather have clouds than a rotating background in the first level when it came time to make the Genesis version.  Dumb ol' NAMCOT.   It would have been better as a KONAMIT game.
