8Bit Killer is a decently challenging game that's best described as a
combination of Wolfenstein 3D and Contra. If Wolfenstein had been done on
the original NES in the spirit of the games of that system and time, this
would be the result. It uses 64-color palettes and intentionally pixelated
artwork. And, quite frankly, it is frickin great.
As, there's not a whole hell of a lot to describe, all that most people are
likely to miss if they aren't thorough is the various powerups and, even more
likely, the secrets. So, that's all I'm going into here. If you want a more
detailed description of the various enemies and weapons, I recommend CyberD's
site:

In many cases describing the exact location of the powerups is either
difficult or not particularly practical, so I'm simply going to list them,
and you can use this as a guide to gauge whether or not you missed anything.
