Will the brave pilots of Squadron 51 and their aircrafts stand a chance against the Zarog's diabolic fleet of flying saucers?

Squad 51 Vs. The Flying Saucers is a Shmup inspired by classic 1950s Sci-Fi B-Movies, and the way this game recreates the presentation of those old films is nothing short of jaw-dropping. The gameplay here is quite good too, though it does have a few small issues, and the Nintendo Switch version’s loading screens are annoying. Still, overall this is a must for Shmup fans and well worth checking out anyone with a fondness for classic cinema.
