{{sub-stub}}'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' (リパルス) is a 1985 arcade shoot-'em-up by [[Crux]] and [[Sega]] for [[Kyugo arcade hardware]]. It is a non-scrolling space shoot-'em-up that simulates depth by zooming bullets out as they move away, allowing you to shoot enemies that travel farther back.
 
  
Sega also licensed the game to [[Kyugo]] and [[Proma]] for release; both renamed it to '''''<nowiki>'99: The Last War</nowiki>'''''. The exact specifics of this licensing is unknown. (It's possible that Crux, not Sega, licensed the game; investigation is needed.)

Sega also licensed the game to Japanese distributors [[Kyugo]] and [[Proma]] for redistribution as ''<nowiki>'99: The Last War</nowiki>'', with the exact details of the agreements unknown (and with further speculation that [[Crux]] actually served as the licensor.)

Repulse (リパルス), also known as '99: The Last War, is a Kyugo arcade hardware arcade fixed-screen shoot-'em-up game developed by Crux[1] and manufactured by Sega.[1] Released exclusively to Japanese arcades in June 1985, the game is most notable for its relatively-advanced simulation of depth; by scaling-out bullets as they travel, enemies near the rear of the playfield can be taken out by well-aimed shots.

Sega also licensed the game to Japanese distributors Kyugo and Proma for redistribution as '99: The Last War, with the exact details of the agreements unknown (and with further speculation that Crux actually served as the licensor.)
