This game is rated ESRB: Teen for Mild Fantasy Violence and Suggestive Themes.
Gunbird is a vertical scrolling shoot-em-up developed by Psikyo, originally released in arcades in 1994 and later ported to platforms including Sega Saturn, PlayStation, PlayStation Portable, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, PC, and Nintendo Switch. Players select from a roster of anime-styled characters, each serving as the player's aircraft through successive stages of aerial combat. The game is framed by a narrative presented between levels and before boss encounters, following a group of protagonists on a quest to gather fragments of a magical mirror in hopes of having a wish granted. This story context gives the arcade action a lighthearted fantasy backdrop uncommon for the genre at the time. As a Psikyo production, Gunbird reflects the studio's signature approach to the scrolling shooter format, blending fast-paced bullet patterns with a distinctly stylized visual presentation.
A comical story about the "magical mirror" that makes wishes come true. You can see the dialogue demos that unfold during the intermission and when the boss appears, and the dialogue between the characters that changes when the 2 players mode.
