Truxton (Tatsujin in Japan) is a vertical scrolling shooter arcade game developed by Toaplan in 1988. Like many other shooters, the game is set in space, where the player takes control of a small spaceship across several planets. The game is played with an 8-way joystick and two buttons (a shot and a bomb button) through 8 levels with non-stop action and 5 bosses.
