Synopsis

BioMetal is a single-player horizontally scrolling shooter released on June 1, 1993, for the Super NES. The game features six different weapons to combat the BioMetals, an extraterrestrial race determined to destroy the human race. The gameplay is very similar to that of the R-Type series, with the final boss even greatly resembling and behaving similarly to that series' iconic boss enemy Dobkeratops. The European and North American versions of BioMetal feature a soundtrack entirely created of four remixed songs of techno group 2 Unlimited from their 1991 album, Get Ready!. The Japanese version of the game features an entirely different soundtrack. A sequel called BioMetal Gust was released for the Saturn in 1997, included with the Dezaemon 2 pack.
