I used to play an arcade game that was most fun and I would like to try and
find it or info about it.

Maybe some of you have played it or might remember somthing,  anyways...

The game:

Very similar to Xevious:  Top view, scrolling upwards; space ship flying
over land ( grass, and rock)

Now here's the main distinguishing feature of the game.

Like Gradius it had power ups.  There were stars you collected.  After so
many stars then you could purchase new weapoons or items for your ship.  I
remember the best config was to get homing missle, speed upgrades,  but
there were also wing upgrades that would widen your ship (to a length of 3).
If you got shot in the wing you'd loose them.

Simple as that.

If you remember this game I would very much appretiate some info on it.


Thanx in advance.
