Demon Front (V105)

Demon Front gameplay context

Firing up the IGS arcade hardware, Demon Front throws you into a 2D side-scrolling war against demon hordes back in 2002. As an elite soldier, you fight across varied battlegrounds with an ever-upgrading arsenal and a unique pet companion by your side. Demon Front includes demo marker, which helps separate this page from nearby ports, regional releases, and similarly named entries.

• Demon Front entry snapshot
  Demon Front includes demo marker, which helps separate this page from nearby ports, regional releases, and similarly named entries. The strongest visible context is the Classic Arcade platform and its general play style. Emulator core: arcade.
• A Run-and-Gun Power Fantasy
  Movement feels fluid and responsive as you dash, crouch, and platform through chaotic levels. The intensity isn't random—it’s a finely tuned arcade loop where you learn to navigate dense patterns of plasma fire and demonic mini-bosses, like the wall-crawling arachnid in Stage 2.
• An Inventory, Not Just a Gun
  You don’t just grab a better weapon, you build a tactical loadout. Picking up a flamethrower icon changes your primary fire dramatically, the L-Spread shotgun scatters in a different pattern, and the Wave Gun pierces straight through lines of enemies. Swapping on the fly to match the situation is the key to survival, not just mindless shooting.
• Your Pet Is Another Weapon
  You can’t ignore your sidekick. The pet system isn’t a gimmick—in the later, brutal stages, deploying my 'Dragon Pet' for its sweeping flame attack was often the clutch move to clear a screen when I was cornered. Leveling them up by grabbing specific orbs fundamentally changes your game plan, which was a smart twist for a shooter of this era.
