Axelay (アクスレイ, Akusurei) is a 1992 scrolling shooter video game developed and published by Konami of Japan for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. The game was released on September 11, 1992 in Japan, later in that month in North America, and the following year in Europe. The game was re-released on the Nintendo Wii's Virtual Console service in Australia and North America in 2007 and in Japan in 2008.
Axelay is a sci-fi scrolling-shooter in the same vein as other Konami titles such as Life Force (Salamander) and Gradius. The game features both horizontal and vertically scrolling levels, and allows the player to choose three different weapon-types, which increase in number as he or she progresses through the game.
The game was programmed by Hideo Ueda. Kazuhiko Ishida, credited with "support program" on Axelay, later left Konami to help found Treasure Co. Ltd.Taro Kudo primarily composed the game's soundtrack.
Please stay away
Your world is numb
The clock will strike
The next right wrong
One shot, who cares
About my life
I'm weak, I bleed
And I'm just
Crawling through everything now
Nowhere
Nowhere
Nowhere
The angels are,
No one
No one
No one
Will care about me
Care about me
Care abput me
Beneath the lies
Beneath the sore
My soul for sale in department stores
One cut, who cares
I see no choice
I fail
Too late
And I'm just crawling through everything now
I'm just crawling, I hit the ground
Nowhere
Nowhere
Nowhere
The angels are
No one
No one
No one
Will care about
No one
No one
No one
The angels are
Nowhere
Nowhere
Nowhere
Who cares about me?
Care about me
Care about me
Care about me
Care about me
Cares about
Nowhere
Nowhere
Nowhere
The angels are
No one
No one
No one
Will care about
No one
No one
No one
The angels are
Nowhere
Nowhere
Nowhere
Who cares about me?
Care about me
Care about me
