I bet you saved a ton of time not typing “ellex”, huh? Or do you boys pretend you are acting out the movie “Men In Black”, and refer to each other by a first initial only? “YO! T! How be da site be doin boyyyy?!” “Yo! It be mad phresh K!”

I played this when I was younger, and I know at the time, it did not have in-app purchases, I wonder if this PAID game does? Seeing as it is the current trend to rip your customer’s off, and Droid Life only seems to plug and support criminals from the Market. Well, needless to say, I’m not holding my breath about actually getting the ENTIRE game, if I buy this. But as always, reading through a huge amount of reviews, usually gives me a heads up if I’m about to waste money buying an app from a criminal, seeing as we can’t trust the developer to be open, and honest, and mention in the description that the game is crippled and has in-app purchases.

reminds me more of afterburner or galaxy force rather than zaxxon

Definitely re-imagined “Escape”. I would take an updated top down shooter over this version any day. I love me some good space shooter action.

I rocked out Zaxxon on my Atari. It was always one of my faves. I’ll have to give this a try.

I loved Zaxxon! I had Super Zaxxon on my ColecoVision Adam. It was actually worth waiting 5 minutes for it to load from the “high speed” tape drive;) Sega also has the original Zaxxon available in the Wii download store for the Virtual Console for 800 points.
