Excerpt from Genesis Game Guide by The Scribe

NAME:             Viewpoint
AUTHOR/VENDOR:    American Sammy
RELEASED:         1994
TYPE:             Shooter
LANGUAGE:         English

PREMISE:          The inhabitants of Ralfredacc, a gigantic death orb, have
                  stockpiled an impressive arsenal of alien weaponry which
                  they plan to use to annhiliate all life on Earth - as
                  vengeance for being banished years before.  What we need
                  now is a top-notch Byupo probe pilot with a quick trigger
                  finger and the guts to see this thing through. (Starbase
                  299)

IMPRESSIONS:      Quite impressive graphically, but the awkward perspective
                  hampers gameplay a bit.  Frustratingly hard and laden
                  with slowdown. (Rage Games)

the Scribe hits this one square on the head. I first played this game in emulation and so I couldn't figure out what he meant by the slowdowns. I soon found out upon finding a cart of this game for 3.99 at my local Funco. The graphics are very nicely done and the challenge level is way up there. But the slowdowns which are frequent do inhibit any enjoyment since it makes dodging the enemies all that much more difficult.

to warp ahead to level 2:

in level one fly till you come to the spinning barricade in your path with 4 red gates...to open the portal to level 2 you must destroy the 4 gates and the center piece...alot harder than it looks plus i had to use both bombs and alot of charge beams!
