Some time arround 2003 to 2010, I played a side-scrolling shot´em up but for the life of me can not remember the title or find the disk.
So this will turn into a hopefully fun little adventure. I need to say that my memorys of the game are a little... wanky.
Let me get to it: Steams memory for sidescrollers is NOT GOOD for the time frame in question. I got one for 2008 and one for 2009 both of which are not what I am looking for.
The art style is simple. The heroe is grey with green accents. The camera moves with him. Each level ends with a boss fight wich is some wierd mech or millitary vehicle. One important point, there is a metric boatload of weapons. Shotgun, alien beam projectile thrower, flame ball launcher (which leaves enemies burning down to their feet), missle launchers, lightsaber. You name it!
First level ended with a leged mech, second with a helicopter (not sure). I can not remember what followed after that.
I really hope someone reads this and goes "Yea, sure! I have been playing the game named ________ all the time." I appreciate every hint like screenshots, videos, sounds (?), names, etc.
Games that are not what I am looking for:
Aztaka
Bionic Commando: Rearmed
Metal Slug series
Intrusion
Shadow Complex
