Developer Locomalito provides more information on Super Hydorah:

In Super Hydorah, an evil force has launched an invasion over the Omios star. Only you, the most skilled and deadly pilot in the galaxy, can face the dreadful menace of the Meroptians, bio-mechanical creatures set in a ruthless war of conquest. Equip your ship, select a route and fight planet by planet against the hordes of Meroptians!

• Non-linear level layout with route selection
• Dangers of different nature in each level (not just bullets)
• Weapon selection and power-ups in every mission
• Memorable and epic original soundtrack by Gryzor87

It’s important to note that the Vita version of Super Hydorah isn’t quite feature complete, as it doesn’t offer any multiplayer modes. However, the game is available for cross-buy, so if you want local co-op and portability you won’t have to buy the game twice!
