Blood Money

PC
Genre:  Arcade    |     Year: 1989    |     Publisher: Psygnosis     |     Developer: DMA Design
Game Review (written by Dooms) Added on: 11/12/2006
Blood Money - as the names suggests is all about killing bad stuff to get money, whether it is small creators on the floor ceiling or flying in the air. From memory there are 4 planets each with their own style of ship.
There is a submarine, space ship, backpack type guy and a helicopter. Each ship will be next to its own planet on the menu screen which means you can only use that one aircraft per planet and you cannot complete the whole game by just using one type or aircraft.

This is really good as you are then theoretically getting 4 games in one as each level then feels like a whole new fresh game with a new aircraft and weaponry.

planet has different bad guys. You can start out on 2 planets only and then progress to the other 2 once the first have been completed. I would start on the first one as it is the easiest and you get a bit more money so as it buy some really good weapons. This is the good bit. Blasting bad guys for money and then saving up to get some wicked artillery. The coins drop from the bad guy once you have blown them up. This means you are always moving around the screen, either blowing stuff up, dodging bullets, collecting money or finding the nearest shop so you can spend what you have collected, sweet.
The scenery either moves left to right or up and down which is really good. This means you are never quiet sure where you will be heading next making for some really interesting and difficult parts of the game to over come. A lot of other shoot’em ups just travel in one direction making them seems all the same and you get a bit bored. Not with Blood Money though.
Sound effects - I would personally have the FX switched on rather than the music. This sounds better as well as making the game play run smother as you can then actually here what you have blown up or collected money wise.
The game is also quiet hard which means you keep coming back for more all the time. It seems to be a very additive game once you know what weapons are best to get at certain points of the game. These weapons range from top and bottom bullets to front and rear with bombs also.
The bosses which there is one at the end of every level are also every hard which I think is good, who wants an easy game anyway. Enjoy one hell of a game.
