Layer Section & Galactic Attack S-Tribute Reviews
Layer Section will always be a high-roller, and if you've never played it, you're in a ride like few others. As a Switch port, on the other hand, the relatively bare-bones production is the only real negative. Notable historical works deserve the gold standard: a bigger, bolder package that offers the best possible representation. To that end, City Connection has failed to do this game the justice it deserves, which makes it very lucky that Layer Section & Galactic Attack S-Tribute is still so damn good.
It's wonderful that modern gamers can enjoy the greatness that is RayForce via Layer Section & Galactic Attack S-Tribute. Taito were ahead of their time and once you play this gem of a shoot 'em up, I'm sure you'll agree wholeheartedly.
This is an optimized home port of the original, which now supports stereo music, stage selection and especially allowing up to 99 credits which provides a much flexible accessibility. It’s the highest priced game developed by City Connection but still shows some parts where the sound cuts off but, you’ll still get to experience the 2D sprites by Taito of the classic era, using the lock on lasers to play in your own difficulty and such. It’s also the first Rayforce game with an official online leaderboard, which makes it even special than it is.
