Right now it's a tie, so get your votes in for this week's MAME ROW! I'll be posting the winner at Noon Eastern!

@obsidianspider I voted right now. Hellfire!

Voter turnout this week was low, but we have a winner! Hellfire!

Excellent! Well I am playing it in advmame 0.94, and managed to get 4600 but it doesn't save the score between reboots - honest!
I don't usually use advmame, but MAME2003 wouldn't let me map a button to changing the fire direction for some strange reason.
It also turns out that advmame lets me change the number of lives and difficulty setting, so for reference I'm using the default 3 lives and Normal difficulty.
It's a good game, but if you lose your power-ups it's tricky to then survive long enough to build them up again sufficiently before the end of level boss.

Is this the first horizontal shooter to be picked for MAME ROW?
-
@mediamogul We had 4-D Warriors in MAME ROW #4 and Raiga - Strato Fighter in MAME ROW #5.
EDIT: also Forgotten Worlds (#10); Mystic Riders (#16); Vanguard (#32); and Zed Blade (#25).
-
Wow, some great games there too. I love that this has been going on long enough now to have it's own traceable history and trivia.
-
@mediamogul I forgot to mention one of the ones I liked playing the most: Zed Blade from MAME ROW #25 (remembered that thanks to the @ETAPRIME apology video).

MAME ROW #36 is live!

Better late than never, I couldn't match my earlier (unsaved) score, so here's today's effort. Good game, but annoyingly difficult.
