One of the better Toaplan games, but it comes with issues. Firstly, I found the Japanese release was the only version playable due to it's slightly improved colour palette easing the problem of bullets blending into the background. Secondly, if you're playing Twin Hawk on a Steam Deck (hand-held or docked) then you'll need to edit the supplied controller layout to remove the insane amount of left stick deadzone…

I'm about 10 games into Toaplan's shooter library, and this is easily the worst of the bunch. The first impression I got was that I've played this kind of Toaplan game before... but it never felt so sub-par. From there, Twin Hawk goes pedal-down on the repetitive elements for half an hour, topped off with a crappy soundtrack that just farts along in the background. Nothing new, or at least anything exciting to make…
