About this game

Metal Storm is an action-platform video game developed by Tamtex and published by Irem for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). Irem released it in North America in February 1991 and in Japan on April 24, 1992. The game is defined by its central mechanic of the player's ability to reverse gravity at will, upon which all of its levels and challenges are built.

Battle station cyberg's massive computer that keeps peace throughout the solar system is no longer user friendly. It's gone wildly out of control. The LaserGun it operates has already destroyed Neptune. Earth is its next target. As a high-tech hot shot, you must enter Cyber's core and activate the system's self-destruct mechanism. Mankind is reyling on your know-how and toughness to see this thing through. But time is running out...
