Ashura Blaster is a 1990 NMK vertical shooter that dresses its classic shoot 'em up structure in imagery drawn from Japanese mythology: demons, warrior deities, and stages loaded with detail for the time. The difficulty is high even by the genre's standards in those years. It's remembered fondly within the circle of fans of less mainstream Japanese shooters, as one of those titles that defined its own aesthetic within NMK's catalog.
