D-Force, known in Japan as Dimension Force , is a 1991 vertical scrolling shooter video game developed and published in Japan by Asmik for the Super Famicom and later localized and published in North America by Asmik Corporation of America for the Super NES. It involves an Apache helicopter set on defeating an evil Middle Eastern dictator. There are seven levels which feature six countries. Some of the levels involve switching altitudes in order to attack enemies from a different height, which uses Mode 7, one of the main features of the Super NES. The main menu splits the game up into three... sections; "Game Start," "Shooting Mode," and "Exploration Mode." Game Start plays through all of the game's seven levels. Shooting Mode plays only the four levels where consistent shooting and dodging enemy fire is the main focus. These levels are also the only levels that feature the ability to gain bullet and missile power-ups to the helicopter. "Exploration Mode" plays only the three levels which involve switching altitudes to shoot down certain enemies and avoid obstacles.
