Metal Black

Metal Black is a 1991 horizontally scrolling shooter video game developed and published by Taito for arcades. Set in the dystopian future of 2052, players assume the role of rogue pilot John Ford taking command of the CF-345 Black Fly space fighter craft to defeat the Nemesis alien race and save humanity. Created under the working title "Project Gun Frontier 2", Metal Black was made by most of the same staff behind Gun Frontier and ran on the Taito F1 System hardware, although its actual connection with the latter title is very loose.
