Side Arms Hyper Dyne Side Arms Hyper Dyne is a 1986 arcade game created by Capcom. The game is a side-scrolling shooter that unlike most games in the genre, allows the player to shoot both left and right, an idea Capcom had previously experimented with 1985's Section Z. The game is the second in the "Jet Pack hero" series of shooters, the first being the aforementioned Section Z and the last being Forgotten Worlds. The game was licensed to Romstar for manufacture and distribution within the United States. [source:wikipedia]
