This game is a Gradius-esque Rail shooter that uses pre-rendered FMV background scrolling (although there are significant terrain collision damage if you're not careful).
Taking out an entire group of mooks occasionally yield you a floating token (Copper (1), Silver (2), and Gold (4)), you can use it to upgrade your ship depending on which powerup the cursor is pointing.
Note on the Spreadshot - I know it's UNIVERSALLY despised by Novastorm players; and it is particularly true that it's notoriously weak against bosses. But one thing -I- found with it is that it is actually pretty useful against mooks, especially in later levels where they zoom about the screen and you're going to be needing every powerup you can get (Mission 3-1 and the Techno part of Mission 4-1). Besides, you could in theory just pile the drones for the added power during bosses.
Also, Psygnosis/SCE Studios Liverpool, you are missed.
