When we featured Boss Rush here last November and raved about the shoot'em-up's role-reversal gimmick in which you play as a boss warship instead of a hero craft, it was only available as a trailer while we waited for Paper Dino Software to complete the game. After several delays, Boss Rush is finally out and available to play for free through your browser!

In Boss Rush, you can pilot several different end-boss ships (e.g. Grand Warship Tonbogiri, Drone Unit Antonius), each with their own unique abilities, weaknesses, and patterns. To keep each stage exciting, you have three difficulty levels for the different levels, as well as unique objectives such as preventing your enemy from gaining a power-up or staying alive for a certain amount of time.

The game also offers two other modes in addition to its standard campaign: Survival (unlockable) and Versus. In the Versus mode, another player can join you on the keyboard to pilot the hero craft for a two-player shoot-out!
