Description

Finest Hour is a run and gun shooter in which the player controls a person in an assault mech. The mech wields a laser cannon, and jets for jumping. The player runs very fast over a landscape, gunning down any enemies that come their way. Other enemies include other mechs and floating robots. Occasionally, there will be large machines in the way, blocking progress and shooting at the player, requiring many more hits. There is an automatic targeting system.
