great game, had it as bonus unlockable in zero mission(or it was fusion?) on gba, too bad it didn't have a map, had to put the map as a wallpapers on my computer...that was about 6 years ago

Yup this game scared me too, it's a shame that to this day I have never beat it. I would just get lost every time.
