Description

Scorpius is a horizontally scrolling shoot-em-up in which the player can choose to control one of the three available spaceships on their way through exotic planets populated by hostile alien races. The ships vary in shape and use modified versions of basic weapon types. Each ship starts with a low-damage gun and can upgrade and change the weapon to spreading fire, slow but powerful lightning attack, and others. The ships are also equipped with a claw-like tail, which is activated with a separate button. The tail can attack enemies in a circular motions and retracts back to the ship. Most stages require alternating between firearms and the tail for successful completion.

This soundtrack is solid- energetic, the instrumentation is sweet, and the composition varied. The tracks are only around 30 seconds long each, but regardless, they never feel boring. I'd honestly recommend just listening to this whole thing throughout. They're all winners. Particular stands outs though are Stage 4 and Stage 6. 9/10.

Plus, as a bonus, there's also more up-to-date tracks for the X68000.
